BVi Consulting Engineers Leading the way since 1967
BVi has a unique management structure for an engineering company. It is based on a broad shareholding by the owner-managers, which they feel is the key to their success.
The goal of this broad owner-managed structure is to ensure the full commitment of managers and senior personnel to the vision of BVi, more specifically to their goals of personal attention on a project level, superior quality and service to clients. Their decisionmaking authority is strongly decentralised, enabling managers to make operational decisions and execute projects without red tape. They believe this structure is the key to their success and differentiates us from other larger engineering firms.
With an indisputable track record and experience of over 50 years in the field of various engineering disciplines, BVi can pride itself on providing professional services in all the mentioned fields: • structural engineering • civil engineering • electrical engineering • mechanical engineering • roads and transportation • project and construction management • social housing and residential developments • commercial and administration buildings • infrastructure developments • mining infrastructure and EPCM • quality control and technical audits • turnkey projects • town planning. As a leader in the engineering industry, BVi sets high standards in transformation, and they are proud of achieving a 54% majority black-owned shareholding and Level 1 BBBEE Contributor status.
This is a significant milestone for the BVi group and a step forward in the engineering industry.
In addition to BVi being a 54% blackowned company, with more than 50% of its shareholding owned by professional engineers and technologists, they have restructured their management with the goal of obtaining a minimum of 50% black representation at management level.
BVi’s workforce is already more than 50% black, and by applying a strict equity policy, 70% of all of last year’s new recruits were black. Their mentor/ learnership programme aims to fasttrack youth career paths through the BVi BEE Employee Trust, to advance the
careers of young black qualified engineers and technicians into management. The newly launched BVi Academy will focus on the Existing Learnership and Mentorship Programme (all employees), Graduate Internship Programme, which has commenced this year, BVi Trust and the Youth Professional Chapter.
Their BBBEE score is evidence of a longstanding commitment to procure from empowered companies, and they have assisted many smaller firms to learn essential consulting engineering skills.
