Ethics & Transparency
We hold ourselves to a high ethical standard in every aspect of our work — from early-stage development through construction and long-term operations. In an industry where misaligned incentives and opaque contractor relationships are common, Somos operates differently. Our reputation is built not just on what we build, but how we build it.
What that commitment looks like in practice.
Client advocacy over self-interest
Somos serves as a strategic partner first and a contractor second. We identify risks, flag cost-saving opportunities, and challenge assumptions, even when doing so complicates our own scope of work. Our clients' capital is treated with the same care we would give our own.
Honesty and fairness in all business dealings
We act with honesty and fairness at every stage of an engagement — avoiding conflicts of interest, maintaining clear professional boundaries, and delivering on commitments with full accountability and ownership. We treat every partner, client, and community with the respect that a long-term relationship requires.
Contract clarity and full financial visibility
Clear communication and financial transparency are critical in complex energy projects. Somos structures every contract and agreement with clarity and fairness, maintains full visibility into procurement, cost structures, and change management, and provides accurate, timely reporting on project performance, budgets, and schedules throughout every phase of delivery.
Honest communication of risk
Complex infrastructure projects carry risk. We don't minimize or obscure it. Somos communicates risk clearly and early — giving our clients the information they need to make confident, well-informed decisions at every stage of a project.
Partner and contractor standards
The transparency we hold ourselves to extends to every partner, subcontractor, and vendor we engage. We apply the same due diligence, ethical expectations, and accountability standards throughout our supply chain that we apply to ourselves.
A culture of responsibility
Governance at Somos is not confined to policies, it is embedded in our culture. Every team member is expected to uphold our standards and contribute to a work environment defined by accountability, professionalism, and trust. When expectations are consistent from the top down, execution improves across every aspect of the work.
