Partner Overview

GRM Consulting Services Limited (GRMCS)

Research & Technical Collaboration Partner

GRMCS is a Bangladesh-based research, monitoring, evaluation and consultancy organisation. In October 2026, GRMCS and Tridifa Consulting LLP signed a non-commercial MoU providing a framework to explore joint research, evaluation, technical proposals, field research and development assignments in India, Bangladesh and wider regional contexts.

Important context

The October 2026 MoU establishes a non-commercial framework for cooperation, not a joint venture, agency relationship or automatic commercial commitment. Each funded assignment requires a separate written agreement. GRMCS logo and branded artwork are intentionally not reproduced here pending express logo-use approval.

Frequently Asked Questions

Understanding GRMCS

What is the status of the Tridifa–GRMCS relationship?

Have the parties already completed a joint project?

No specific jointly completed assignment is claimed on this profile. Individual projects will be described only after their scope and delivery can be documented.

What geography does GRMCS cover?

GRMCS describes itself as a Bangladesh-based research organisation with nationwide field capabilities. Tridifa and GRMCS may explore India–Bangladesh or wider regional work through separately agreed assignments.
