What Mwetana does

Mwetana Consulting & Technology Group is a Liberia-based IT services and software development firm founded in April 2006, operating primarily across West Africa with offices in Monrovia, Liberia (headquarters); Brockton, Massachusetts; and Kigali, Rwanda. The company delivers custom software development, managed IT services, cloud and DevOps, cybersecurity, ICT equipment supply, and consulting to government ministries, financial institutions, NGOs, and large enterprises. Its core customer verticals are government/public sector, banking and finance, NGOs/development partners, and education, with adjacent verticals in healthcare, agriculture, and SMEs.

The company has built a portfolio of proprietary vertical platforms on a TypeScript, C#/.NET, MS SQL, Azure, React Native, Python, and Node.js stack, with cloud delivery across AWS, Azure, Digital Ocean, and Google Cloud. Flagship products include SchooLink (cloud-based school management with biometric attendance), SmartPass (biometric attendance with fingerprint plus facial recognition and anti-spoofing), OneBusiness POS (offline-first SME management), PaymentCollect (payment gateway), HMS (hospital management), and the LPA System (government loan/portfolio and civil service salary deduction management). Documented implementations include the Civil Service Agency of Liberia (LPA), the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Authority (SmartPass), the University of Liberia (SchooLink), and Bassa Enterprise Group (OneBusiness), with reported outcomes of up to 90% administrative workload reduction and 99.9% attendance accuracy.

Mwetana monetizes through a hybrid mix of professional services (custom development, managed IT, cloud migration, cybersecurity consulting, project management), hardware resale (Lenovo, HP), and recurring SaaS subscriptions to its proprietary platforms on annual billing cycles. Pricing is quote-based with no public tiers. GTM is enterprise field sales: discovery meeting, tailored proposal, multi-year engagement — supplemented by direct sales coverage in the US and Rwanda offices and self-serve web access to SchooLink, PaymentCollect, and OneBusiness. The firm maintains technology partnerships with Microsoft (Certified Partner), Cisco, VMware, HP/HPE, AWS, Azure, Lenovo, and Acronis, and is independently owned with no disclosed external funding.
