SEEKING TRUE COLLABORATION AND TRANSPARENCY IN CONTRACTS
Would be you be open to different forms of contracting if they were more responsive to your operational challenges?
Picture reducing 20 to 30% of your project capital and time and channelling that value to other projects or areas of your business.
In an otherwise evolving construction ecosystem, the presumption that contract mechanisms are a holy grail that cannot be changed or improved entrenches adversarial relationships between the client, its engineer, and the contractor. Every aspect of the construction value chain is transforming except for our contracting methodologies...

GROWING STRONGER THROUGH ADVERSITY
This has been a challenging year for us all personally and professionally.
I am extremely proud of the way everyone in Mariswe embraced the changes that were forced upon us by Covid-19. Our teams around South Africa and further afield showed that they could be flexible when it came to isolated working conditions and no face-to-face contact with their colleagues and clients.
On the other hand, without exception they remained firm on quality. We do not compromise on quality. And we kept that promise to our clients throughout lockdown.

Day Zero, predicted for 12 April 2018 in the City of Cape Town, would have been the largest drought-induced municipal water failure in modern history.

This dovetails with Mariswe’s ethos of ‘Improving Lives. Engineering Solutions’.”

BUILDING A HERITAGE
Heritage Day is about celebrating our cultural roots. It is also about our shared heritage as a nation.
“This heritage includes engineering achievements too numerous to mention. But we need to do so much better if all our citizens are to benefit from what our country has to offer. “Let us begin by training more engineers and encouraging diversity in this critical sector. The experienced elders of our profession must mentor young entrants so that they, too, have the passion and knowledge to create a rich heritage around our built environment.
“We must work together to build a heritage our children will be proud of.”

Covid-19 may have thrown the world off balance, but it has also opened the door to a smarter way of working and delivering construction programmes more efficiently. A prime example is the recent launch of Mariswe’s Strategic Projects Unit.
