Challenges

Client Challenges and Specific Requirements

The client, a major international mining company, needed to deploy an entire team of more than 100 expatriates simultaneously to support a new mining project in Senegal. Unlike traditional rotation-based mobilizations, this mission required all personnel to be on-site within a month a logistical and administrative challenge involving consultants from over 12 countries across Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas.


Immigration and work authorization processes in Senegal are highly regulated, requiring precise coordination with local authorities, consular offices, and employment departments. In addition, the client needed payroll solutions in both local and foreign currencies to accommodate different contractual frameworks and home-country obligations.


With no established entity in Senegal, the client turned to IOTA Group to ensure full compliance and on-time mobilization. The challenge was to manage international logistics, immigration, local contracting, payroll, and social contributions simultaneously while maintaining the highest standards of compliance, security, and efficiency.
