Empower lasting impact through expert planning. Collaborate on successful public sector projects with Te Tiriti partners. Our integrated approach unites stakeholders for clear resource management pathways in local and central government processes.
Tailored to each project, our approach ranges from co-creating robust processes for innovative futures to overseeing multi-disciplinary teams and resource management projects, ensuring meticulous care from start to finish.
Mahea NZ Limited (previously Bartley Planning Limited) has been operating since 2017. In 2023 our Technical Directors, Jacky and Keita
decided to join together to form Mahea.
Mahea builds upon the strong foundations and track record that Jacky and Keita have built over decades of strategic planning experience,
where they have led a diverse range of projects throughout Aotearoa.
Their partnership, born before Mahea, stems from shared values and skills. Mahea magnifies their impact. Jacky and Keita now concentrate
on guiding clients to success, realising visions, and driving positive change.
