About us

KOMPONENTA is an analytical and operational company working towards a better understanding and development of the urban environment.

We explore the connections between people, places, institutions and the processes that shape them. We collect and analyse data, engage stakeholders and translate different perspectives into clear directions for action.

We work with public institutions, investors, project teams and local communities on projects related to urban development, sustainability and the quality of the built environment.

Our Mission

To create the conditions for more informed, shared and sustainable decisions about the development of cities and territories.

We do not offer solutions from the outside. We build a process in which data, expertise and different perspectives can come together and be transformed into workable solutions.

Нашата мисия

КОМПОНЕНТА има ключова роля в намирането на допирни точки между желанията, очакванията и целите на всички участници в процеса на подготвяне и създаване на един проект – възложител, проектанти, администрация, общество. Целта ни е да подпомогнем създаването на партньорства между различните участници в процеса на устройствено планиране.

Sustainable Development Goals in Our Work

Our work is based on the principles of sustainable development and contributes to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. We are most closely aligned with the themes of sustainable cities, climate resilience, equity, effective institutions and partnerships.

10 — Reduced Inequalities

11 — Sustainable Cities and Communities

13 — Climate Action

16 — Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

17 — Partnerships for the Goals

Our principles

Sustainable development

Partnership

Responsibility and transparency

A fundamental perspective through which we view our projects, initiatives and actions. We develop our concepts through the lens of the Global Goals for Sustainable Development. We believe that economic and socio-cultural well-being is directly linked to a responsible attitude towards nature and our culture, history and society as a whole. Sustainable development as a concept has grown a lot over the years, receiving many different definitions. Each of them, however, addresses the balance in the relationship between the economy, the environment and society. It brings to the fore the global challenges that we face – challanges which we seek to tackle  through our works. We strive to create concepts that contribute to the health and well-being of our societies, the preservation of biodiversity and the natural environment, and the reduction of the carbon footprint of cities. This brings us to an understanding of three forms of capital and three perspectives for action related to them:

  • a social perspective,
  • an economic perspective, and
  • an environmental perspective

We believe we can achieve more when we work together. That's why we look for common ground, common understandings and common interests to build sustainable and meaningful synergies and lasting partnerships. We refer to the principle of collaboration, which is based on the understanding that societal and urban development and maintaining balance in them are a shared responsibility, which implies that all parts of society should be active participants in this process.

We approach our city, our work and our partners with responsibility, ensuring that processes and relationships are clear, structured and transparent for all parties. In addition, we monitor with responsibility the commitments we and our partners are making in order to achieve traceability and trust in our work, our communication and in the good end result. 

*Complementary principles for the mediation processes

Equity

Although we live in a world that does not provide equal opportunities, we still strive as people and professionals to create conditions for equity. It is for this reason that we make a special effort in our work and carefully ensure that our processes are structured to provide equal opportunities for inclusion.

Impartiality/Neutrality

The best decisions come when we can go beyond the personal and the primary. For us, this would be possible when we are impartial with regards to the parties we work with and do not put the interests of one party ahead of those of another.

Tolerance

We approach each party with understanding and make a clear assessment of their capabilities and strengths in the process. We structure the process so as to give equal opportunity for participatiob to the less advantaged party, taking strict care that this does not compromise our impartiality and neutrality in the process.

Confidentiality

We ensure the confidentiality of information concerning the parties and the confidentiality of the process itself, if the case requires it.
