A prime contractor supporting a US government‑funded program abroad hired Mantid to repair relations with the host government and overhaul compliance. Mantid cut millions in unnecessary costs, won key exemptions, neutralized politically motivated legal attacks and restored the client’s reputation—leading to full government support and a contract renewal.

When a strategic US contractor faced years of inequitable foreign compliance demands, Mantid crafted a tailored strategy that balanced US contract requirements with local law, enlisted diplomatic support and educated host‑country technocrats. The result: precedent‑setting reforms and more than 70 percent reduction in compliance costs for the client.

A US firm operating in the Middle East was told by a Big 4 accounting firm that it owed $10 million in back taxes. Mantid assembled top local auditors, re‑structured the compliance strategy and settled all outstanding liabilities for under $300k while establishing a sound reporting regime—saving the company millions and ensuring future compliance.

A mid‑sized engineering services company lost favor with a foreign military and missed out on follow‑on work after a competitor’s smear campaign. Mantid spent two years repairing ties with the Ministry of Defense, correcting false records and connecting the client with a credible local partner. The company ultimately secured a new, high‑profile Foreign Military Sales contract from the same government.

For a US firm awarded an FMS training contract that couldn’t legally contact the client until after award, Mantid secured ministerial‑level waivers to let the team begin work immediately. Mantid then guided the company through complex local compliance requirements, ensuring a smooth launch.

Mantid won a $10 million annual contract to help a provincial government in the Middle East improve engineering management and strategic planning. By establishing a full headquarters, deploying foreign experts and training local staff, Mantid not only executed key infrastructure projects but also identified safety hazards—prompting immediate corrective action—and provided templates that strengthened the province’s long‑term capabilities.
