APPROACH

We ensure that projects are delivered on time, within budget and to a high standard.

Methodology

EKCON has a pro-active approach to project execution. The continued involvement of a partner is maintained throughout all phases of a project, from the first briefing to the final handover, providing a most efficient, direct and prompt service. Technical staff is brought into a project from inception and remains on the project throughout the project duration.

Philosophy

The partners do not stereotype a project, but investigate all possible alternatives applying theoretical knowledge and expertise in an innovative manner. All design considerations are taken into account from the outset to ensure accurate cost control and estimates. For all projects, large or small, the firm’s policy is to communicate on a personal level and provide an advisory service relating to every project even after completion.
