STRIVING TOWARDS MAXIMUM IMPACT IN FINDING PLANNING SOLUTIONS

BACKGROUND While Maxim Planning Solutions’ head office is based in Klerksdorp, in the City of Matlosana, it also has a foothold in Rustenburg, a fast-growing city on account of the region’s burgeoning platinum industry. Due to our increased involvement in projects within the Gauteng Province and rapidly expanding client base within this Province, we also recently established a branch office in Tshwane to serve the Gauteng area and surrounds. Following the advent of democracy in South Africa in 1994, the company embarked on a new era during 2002, marked by its name change to Maxim Planning Solutions (Pty) Ltd and its commitment to embrace transformation in line with government’s vision of a new South Africa. Today, Maxim Planning Solutions (Pty) Ltd is a fullyfledged B-BBEE company (Level 2 Contributor and Value Added Supplier), reflected in its shareholding ratio of 25.9% previously disadvantaged individuals.
