BKS was established in South Africa in 1965 and is currently one of Africa’s leading multidisciplinary consulting engineering and management companies. The company has a proud history of providing turnkey solutions for projects in South Africa, Africa and in the Middle East.
Our vision is to be the African world-class leader in the art of supplying sustainable development solutions to help eradicate poverty. This is especially relevant on the African continent as rural communities are in desperate need of basic services and urban areas require significant infrastructure development in order to grow national economies.
BKS is dynamic and ensures that its specialists are available to work on projects either individually, or as part of an integrated team that comprises specialist technical knowledge in the engineering and/or management fields deemed necessary by project requirements and in response to identified client needs.
With countless industry accolades for innovative and successful project implementation, strong and dynamic leadership, and a team of highly specialised engineers, technicians, project managers and support staff, we have proven that we’re able to take on the most challenging projects and complete them successfully within time and budget constraints and in accordance with client specifications and needs.
