Services

Services organised around the Kenyan approval path.

Most clients do not begin by knowing the exact engineering service they need. They begin with a building, road, site, county instruction, tender requirement, donor programme, or construction problem that has to pass technical and statutory review.

In Kenya, the approval route is what makes an engineering service compulsory rather than optional. A building cannot go up until the county grants development permission against architectural and structural drawings prepared and signed by registered consultants (Physical and Land Use Planning Act, 2019; Engineers Act, 2011). Before the contractor can break ground, the project must also be registered with the National Construction Authority (NCA), which checks for those same signed drawings and a registered contractor (NCA Act, 2011). And any project on the Second Schedule of the Environmental Management and Coordination Act (EMCA), or otherwise likely to have significant environmental impact, must clear a National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA) assessment before any other licensing authority can issue its own approval.

The firm helps clients understand which engineering inputs are needed before committing to design, tender, construction, or compliance submissions.
