Mechanical Engineering: CL Group mechanical engineering is a design based discipline; a creative process drawing on a combination of physical science, engineering and learned judgment. Rarely is there a single solution to a challenge or issue. Consequently, it is all about balance or trade-offs, a collaborative process of recognizing opportunities, navigating through constraints and managing inherent risks or uncertainty. Our mechanical engineering team is adept at delivering quality mechanical infrastructure for commercial and industrial type projects. We have gained valuable experience in completing various large and landmark projects across Africa. With our engineering excellence, we continue to evolve in bringing innovation to the market by providing cost effective, operationally efficient and sustainable mechanical engineering solutions.

Electrical Engineering: CL Group electrical engineers are able to provide clients with a turnkey electrical and electronic service. Our practical and systematic approach, along with modern computerized modeling techniques and computer aided design packages, provide for cost effective and energy efficient solutions to satisfy our client‘s electrical engineering requirements. We offer all aspects of electrical engineering necessary for the project management of electrical projects, from inception to close out phases of energy orientated projects including master planning, preliminary and detailed design, budgeting and financial control to the construction management, commissioning and completion.

Cost Consultancy & Risk Management: We provide a broad range of Program Cost Consultancy services, expert knowledge and experience to assist our clients and colleagues involved in property and construction projects from inception to completion. Our cost managers bring powerful knowledge to any industrial project, with an intelligent focus on reducing risk, improving value and assuring best outcomes on projects to improve your business performance. Our team of dedicated industrial specialists form an integrated part of the design team, attending design workshops and client meetings, monitoring progress and providing value suggestions as concepts evolve into detail designs. We report regularly on cost through the design process, ensuring both client and designer know the financial impact of their decisions at an early stage. Our experienced global research team sets us apart from the pack, generating time-sensitive information and commentary about the latest trends in construction through in-depth analysis, reporting and research. Your solutions will be informed by cost data from market-leading global cost management system, which draws up-to-date information from global project experience database. Our range of experience and diverse services equip us with the in-house skill and experience to provide input from strategic guidance of master planning studies to the delivery of complex projects. We have long established relationships with many major clients and consultants in Africa. These good relationships ensure cooperative working and offer clients increased value and reduced risk.

Environmental Management and Services: Our experienced environmental management specialist addresses client projects across the full business life cycle, from asset planning, development and operations, to product integration and facility compliance, to site remediation, restoration, sustainability and reuse. Our solutions balance complex technical, regulatory, business and stakeholder issues to produce measurable value and cost-saving approaches for our clients. Our professionals deliver comprehensive solutions to environmental challenges associated with regulatory, business and operational concerns. We address environmental health and safety management, compliance and permitting issues associated with air quality, water, natural resources, habitat protection, site remediation and restoration, and waste. Our professional services also include management plans and systems for the storage, collection and disposal of solid waste for domestic and industrial purposes. While our global environmental team delivers consulting engineering, impact assessment and risk management services to private industry and government organizations, we also focus on societal and stakeholder issues surrounding each project.

Construction Services: CL Group construction services team works alongside our industrial design, project management and consultancy experts to provide essential pre-construction inputs as well as manage final proposed design solutions through delivery and handover. By understanding the drivers for a successful operational facility we can efficiently review the impact of local custom and practice, material availability, skill base of local contractors and suppliers and evaluate total delivery timescales. We will also explore phased delivery, should certain business critical activities require this option. Any phasing is discussed robustly with the design team to ensure functional needs are met at intermediate stages as well as completion. We work with the design team to evaluate different structural options and impacts on time and cost in light of local capabilities and challenges; an approach which is particularly relevant when importing materials. At the same time, we work with local authorities and permitting agencies to clearly identify submission requirements and likely approval periods, enabling us to manage design outputs to win the earliest possible issue of construction permits. We liaise with all incoming utilities to ensure that, if they are not available in the required timescales, independent equipment is in place for the delivery phase as well as final operations.

Our experts know the importance of ensuring that proposals for permanent buildings and any temporary facilities are delivered safely and to the required quality standards.
