Intelligence that drives decisions.
Cosmos Data Group turns complex data into decisions — pairing rigorous analytical method with on-the-ground East African operating knowledge, across the private sector, government, development organisations, and civil society.
Why Cosmos Data Group
Built to be a client's single, most trusted analytical partner
Multidisciplinary bench
Economists, data scientists, statisticians, GIS analysts, and policy specialists working as one team, not a network of subcontractors.
Proprietary technology
Our CI360 platform brings AI-driven, multilingual sentiment and narrative intelligence in-house rather than outsourced.
Deep East African context
Field-tested knowledge of the regulatory, cultural, and operating environment, from KRA compliance to county-level government.
Independent, evidence-first analysis
Findings are traceable to source data and methodology, and reflect what the evidence shows, not what is comfortable.

How We Work
Our Approach
A consistent five-step method applied to every engagement, from a single tax return to a nationwide impact evaluation.
Understand
Structured consultation to understand your objectives, constraints, timeline, and the decisions your organisation needs to make.
Design
We design the optimal methodology — survey instrument, financial model, tax review, or risk framework — before any work begins.
Collect & Analyse
Data gathered through the most appropriate methods: field surveys, database analysis, stakeholder interviews, or secondary research.
Deliver
Findings presented in clear, actionable formats: written reports, interactive dashboards, or executive briefings.
Support
We remain available to support implementation and update our analysis as the situation evolves. Partners, not just service providers.
Our Commitment
Standards we hold on every engagement
Confidentiality
All client information handled with strict confidentiality. Sensitive engagements governed by formal NDAs.
Data Protection
All data activities comply with Kenya's Data Protection Act, 2019. Field teams trained in informed consent.
Independence
We provide honest, independent analysis reflecting evidence, not what clients want to hear.
Professional Standards
Tax advisory complies with ICPAK standards. Research methods follow international ethics protocols.
Accountability
Findings can be independently verified through our underlying data, methodology, and assumptions.
Timeliness
Delivery timelines agreed at outset and held to. Delays communicated proactively, never discovered by clients.
