With advantages of a young and eager labour force, impressive GDP growth plus ceaseless efforts of the Government on improving investment environment, Vietnam remains a magnet for foreign investment, especially for Thai investors. Moreover, the Vietnamese Government has amended various laws covering investment, enterprise, land, and business competition to make them more favourable for foreign investors.
One of the Thai investors that benefits from the above advantages is Engcorp Vietnam Ltd, an Engineering Mechanical/Electrical and Structural Design & Project Management Consultant Company.
Engcorp, formed in Thailand and Vietnam, caters for the design and project management requirements of the ever expanding and on-going construction industry within Asia and Indochina with a commitment to expand to neighbouring countries. The 100 percent Thai invested Engcorp Vietnam officially opened in 2006, with plans to include Cambodia and the Middle East.
According to Mr Pitak Thongpool, Managing Director of Engcorp Vietnam, the key to Engcorp’s success lies within the experience of its professional consultant team. Really, Engcorp has a group of professional designers and project managers from the UK, Thailand, Australia, the Philippines and Vietnam. “As a group, we have worked together for over 10 years in different projects, in different companies and in different countries. This is a unique professional practice, whereby we have a collaboration of consultantsfrom East and West who have joined hands to offer the perfect solution to engineering and Project Management challenges in Asian, Middle Eastern and European markets in the Residential, Hotels & Leisure, Information Technology, Power, Water and Industrial Sectors,” said Mr Pitak Thongpool.
In addition, what makes Engcorp different from others is that its teams work in accordance with international and local design standards depending on the country of origin of the project, especially for design outsourced from the Vietnam office to other countries. This gives Engcorp’s clients a design solution in complete compliance with the laws and regulations of each particular country.
For nearly 5 years in Vietnam, Engcorp has successfully carried out many large scale projects in Vietnam, such as JSM Prince Residential Towers (HCMC), Dai Phuoc Lotus project (Dong Nai province); An Duong Mixed used development (Da Nang City), United Nations HQ in Hanoi, and the new Australian Consulate in HCM City.
To ensure bringing the best value for its client’s construction investment, Engcorp construction cost consultants always provide independent and unbiased advice on all matters of construction cost and time, and offer a full range of engineering cost planning and cost control services to allow the client to proceed with certainty that, once a realistic project budget has been established, it will be maintained through to project completion.
Engcorp Ltd will continue to grow in Vietnam, supporting Vietnamese & International investors on large real estate projects in design consultancy. As “specialists”, Engcorp can also offer the telecom and ISP, Information Technology Industries in Vietnam complete design and construction solutions as the demand in this area increases exponentially. Currently, Engcorp Ltd are in the process partnering with a foreign project management company (Pure Projects Ltd) to further expand that area of the business which will allow Engcorp to join with and educate local professional engineers and managers in project and construction management procedures and techniques to the highest quality expected by investors.
