Why TanWeru
We are a Kenyan team that builds technology institutions can rely on: secure by default, designed around how you actually work, and delivered in the open.
Sensitive data is protected by design: least-privilege access, encryption in transit and at rest, audit logs, and practices aligned with Kenya's Data Protection Act, 2019.
Fast, resilient systems that hold up on everyday phones and patchy networks today, and grow with demand without a rebuild.
Every organisation works differently. We fit the system to your mandate, workflows and existing tools instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all product.
We work alongside your internal teams with written scopes, demonstrable milestones and full handover, so decisions are on record and nothing is a black box.
Services
From the first workshop to the support desk, the same people who scope your system build it and keep it running.
Citizen and customer portals, internal systems and mobile-first web apps, built to stay fast on everyday phones and patchy connections.
Practical automation for the paperwork that slows teams down: document intake, triage, approvals and reporting, with people kept in the loop.
Independent advice on what to build, buy or retire, then a phased plan your team and budget can actually carry.
Dashboards and data pipelines that turn scattered spreadsheets and systems into figures leaders can trust and act on.
Who we serve
Public institutions and private organisations need different things from a technology partner. We are set up for both.
Ministries, county governments, state agencies and public bodies that need dependable digital services and a supplier that fits procurement.
What you get
How we engage: Tenders and RFPs, framework call-offs, or as a specialist partner within a consortium.
Banks, SACCOs, insurers, health providers, agribusiness, NGOs and growing companies that need technology to move faster and cost less to run.
What you get
How we engage: Fixed-scope projects, time-and-materials for evolving work, or a support retainer after launch.
How we work
Every engagement follows the same four stages, with written outputs at each one, so progress is visible and decisions are on record.
01
We start with your mandate, users and constraints: budget lines, timelines, existing systems and compliance obligations. You get a written scope, not a slide deck.
02
Architecture, data flows and interface prototypes are agreed before code is written, so stakeholders sign off on something concrete.
03
Delivery in short, demonstrable milestones with tested releases, documentation and regular progress reports you can share upwards.
04
Handover, training and an agreed support window after launch, with clear response times and a path to grow the system over time.
Sectors
We focus on sectors where reliability, accountability and data protection matter as much as features.
Service portals, case and permit management, revenue systems and inter-agency data sharing for national and county institutions.
Onboarding, reconciliation and reporting tools for banks, SACCOs, insurers and fintechs, built with audit trails from day one.
Booking and records workflows, facility reporting and analytics, designed around the sensitivity of health data.
Farmer registration, input and extension tracking, market data and mobile tools that work where connectivity is thin.
Internal platforms, process automation and analytics for growing organisations replacing spreadsheets and disconnected tools.
Where we operate
Close enough for in-person workshops and site visits, with remote delivery for everything else.
Base
Our team is based in Nairobi, for in-person workshops, discovery and delivery.
Coverage
Ready to work with national institutions, any of the 47 counties and private organisations nationwide: on site when it matters, remote the rest of the time.
Remote delivery
Remote delivery for clients across East Africa and beyond, with working hours that overlap Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
Compliance and trust
TanWeru is a newly formed company. Here is the honest status of every document procurement teams ask for, updated as each one is issued.
Registration with the Business Registration Service (eCitizen) is in process. Certificate details will be published here once issued.
KRA PIN follows company registration. A tax compliance certificate will be supplied with every bid once issued.
We design and build to the Act's principles today. Formal registration with the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner will follow company registration.
Access to Government Procurement Opportunities registration, applied for once company registration and KRA PIN are issued.
Accreditation with the ICT Authority for government ICT work, applied for once the prerequisites are in place.
Status as of October 2026.

For procurement teams
If your question is not answered here, include it in your message and we will respond in writing.
We work on fixed-scope projects priced by milestone, on time-and-materials for evolving work, or on a support retainer after launch. We respond to tenders and RFPs directly, and can also join consortia or work as a specialist subcontractor alongside a lead contractor.
