According to their website OPM:

".... provide development agencies, and the governments with whom they work, with solutions to some of the most complex and intractable international development problems. Most of our projects involve relationships with both a funder, typically an international development agency which directly or indirectly provides funding for our services, and a recipient, typically a government department or public agency in a developing country. Recent funders include DFID, the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the EC, Irish Aid, Danida, SIDA, FINNIDA, SECO, FAO, UNICEF and UNDP."
