THE UPM PROGRAM ZOO CONSULTANCY

For more than two decades, our team has assessed all aspects of zoos and aquariums worldwide to identify and enhance favourable efficiencies and eliminate harmful inefficiencies within all operations. The Urgent Priority Management Program was then applied to this careful, detailed research, resulting in a revolutionary concept that maintains the full potential of zoos and aquariums at the highest efficiency.

This conceptual model was then named The ZOO of New Generation and is entirely flexible and appliable to existing and upcoming Zoological or Aquarium institutions.

Please, see the brief on The ZOO of New Generation to learn more:
