MOGS Consulting & Engineering

Thomson and van Eck - Consulting Engineers - was formed in March 1970 with the objective of providing project management and multi-disciplined engineering expertise in the fields of Civil, Structural, Mechanical, Electrical and Chemical Engineering.  Shortly after commencement of operations, the importance of maintaining tight financial control of projects was recognised, which resulted in the addition of quantity surveying to the company’s capabilities.

Expansion into neighboring and overseas markets resulted in the formation of the International Division of Thomson and van Eck in 1985.
