Permitting processes often take a long time, energy, and and require all parties’ patience when executing a project.
<br< Therefore, Permitting is one of our key areas at Mankuk iexclusively dedicated to elaborate and submit permits, as well as permanently interacting with the authorities.

COMPAÑIA CERVECERIAS UNIDAS S.A entrusted us with its project and requested Mankuk to elaborate and manage the corresponding permits to operate one of its production plants.

Once the project information was provided by CCU, we began a thorough review of the project progress status, and particularly inquired about which permits were being under elaboration. Due to this exhaustive review of procedures, together with Mankuk team’s high experience, skills and knowledge, we were able to warn at an early stage that one of the requirements had been submitted in a gonverment office that had no authority in the customer’s area of interest. This means that the customer was going to waste at least 6 months of work waiting for a response that would have no use.

Thanks to Mankuk team’s management and proactiveness, the compiling work of the appropriate documentation began, followed by the submission of the application to the corresponding authority, which issued the necessary authorizations in order to start CCU S.A.’s project.

It is not common for processes to be initiated in institutions that do not have the competence to issue certifications on a particular subject; thus, the exclusive support and the advisory model that we follow, allow us to have action plans and quick reactions to modify and correct any inconvenience and specially to save time in the processing.

CCU is fully developing its project currently.
