Proconics came into being in 1995. Through acquisition, organic growth and cutting its teeth on petrochemical giant Sasol, it has developed the capability to execute electrical and instrumentation engineering design projects of diverse scale and nature.
The company is adept at dealing with the unknown and has a track record with notable brownfields renewal projects and an ability to enter complex, hazardous operating environments and deliver bespoke renewal solutions. Quality is an absolute as is the delivery of true value for its clients. The company is truly global, with major office centres based in South Africa (Secunda, Sasolburg and Durban), Australia and the Middle East (Qatar).
Proconics employs over 200 qualified employees – ranging from engineers, designers, project managers, health and safety personnel – all dedicated professionals who take pride in their work and the organisation’s fundamental principles of delivering excellence to clients by believing in people, never compromising on safety and acting with integrity.
Part of the Proconics management team: Bongani Ngcongo – CFO, Melvin Jones – CEO, Reginald Mbatha – GM Jhb Office, Elizma van der Walt – engineering manager, Gert Nieuwoudt – CTO.
Clients, in both the private and public sector, are among the world’s biggest and best in their fields – Sasol, Eskom, BHP, Linde, ABB and Siemens, to name a few. Proconics’ size and breadth and depth of expertise make it the ideal partner to manage or participate in complex greenfields and brownfields electrical and instrumentation projects.
A local base with world-class experience
With its feet planted firmly on South African soil, Proconics has partnered and collaborated with some of the globe’s top engineering firms. The head office in Secunda, the industrial capital, allows it to deliver effectively on current projects, while the proximity to Pretoria and Johannesburg connects the organisation to Africa and the world.
