WORK SMART
ECE is Emmanuel Consulting Engineers. Our mantra is Work Smart.
We strive to achieve this by having gifted and passionate individuals as part of our team, yet also recognising that teams need structure – and organisation, or they become chaotic. ECE provides this balance of structure and coordination, yet with the flexibility to allow individuals to be creative, and use their experience and skill to contribute to each project we work on. On every project we work on, we seek to achieve optimization. Optimization is one of our favourite words – because engineers love optimizing – and if you do it right; resources, finances and the environment all win – including clients!
As consulting engineers, ECE does not sell anything, except; time, expertise and experience – so that you can be sure you are receiving impartial and professional advice, resulting in the optimal solution for your project.
We combine and manage the best, and most experienced, engineers as a cohesive team, with common standards, specifications, drawing production and quality systems, to yield the best solution for your project.
Our range of expertise covers solutions for the following disciplines:
•Electrical
•Mechanical and Wet Services
•Civil
•Structural
•Environmental
At ECE we believe in the concept of “TOTAL ENGINEERING” and are interested in the way all elements of a project work together to realise the ultimate purpose, or intent, of the project. Every project can be exciting, and showcase some “work smart” thinking – from a warehouse that perhaps incorporates the same energy efficient lighting and multilevel control you would normally find in a modern high rise, extending the life of a road network at a quarter of the price originally quoted, hybrid fire detection systems protecting life and property in crowed public market, energy modelling for Solar PV and small hydro schemes in Chimanimani and cooling down a 75 year old building that was once a chapel occupied only in the early morning and late evening, but is now a library and occupied all day.
In engineering, it’s all about teams. ECE operates with a blend of permanent staff, and dedicated contracts with selected, highly experienced, engineers, who have worked together on previous projects over the last two decades. This results in the unique ability of ECE to select the best and most experienced team members.
ECE’s strength lies in being able to assemble the right mix of skills and experience, to suit particular projects, and this “tailor made” ECE team is able offer a unique combination of design advice and experience.

Have a look through our project gallery to see an overview of various projects – when we have remembered to stop and take the time to capture a photograph (something we aim to get better at!)
We pride ourselves on being the first port of call for those who have a building to be built, a project needing a solution, or just a question about the built environment – be it roads and drains, the water it uses and discharges, the power it needs, the buildings we live and work in, and the waste products that result – all of it is our passion, and we seek to make it work better and more efficiently each time.
We would love to hear from you, and find out how we can help apply our knowledge and experience to help you Work Smart.
