OTB Group is a pre-development and consulting firm, registered in Thailand and led from Sanur, Bali. We work at the earliest and highest-risk stage of a project: testing the market, assessing the site, shaping the concept and positioning, and bringing the right operators, investors and partners to the table.
Our work spans Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam, with particular depth in marinas and waterfront-led resort projects, including current work in Labuan Bajo and on Rote Island in East Nusa Tenggara.
Feasibility & market studies
Demand and competitive-set analysis, comparables, pricing, product mix, phasing and high-level development pro formas.
Site assessment
Commercial and site suitability, access and connectivity, and waterfront considerations at a strategic level.
Concept & positioning
Target guests and buyers, brand and operator fit, experience design and market positioning.
Waterfront & marina planning
Marinas, jetties, private docks and berths, and sea and land transfer connectivity for destination projects.
Pre-opening & operations advisory
Organisation design, staffing, P&L and business planning, and contingency planning.
Introductions
To resort and hospitality operators, marine partners, investors and other project partners.

Value is more than just price. OTB is deliberately small and nimble. Every engagement is led directly by our principal, so clients get senior attention throughout without the overhead of a large consultancy.
Technical studies, such as engineering, bathymetry and hydrology, environmental, financial modelling and architecture, are delivered by trusted specialists that we bring in as needed. Our network across Asia lets us assemble the right team quickly, and scale it to the project.
