Bosch Ulwazi hosts 2017 Annual Engineer-in-Training
Conference
Bosch Ulwazi hosted the 2017
Engineer-in-Training Conference
at the Bosch Holdings head office
in Umhlanga, Durban.
This annual conference is the
highlight of the calendar for
engineers and technicians from
across Bosch Holdings, who
are enrolled in the in-house EIT
candidacy programme towards
professional registration. The event
provides an interactive platform
for graduates to showcase the
knowledge and skills they acquire
from projects they have worked
on during the year.
We congratulate all the 2017
graduates and in particular, second
year EIT Sashnee Naicker, who
won the first place trophy. Edward
Mukhari was awarded second
place and Satvika Harilal, third.

Aspire Hospital - Nairobi
Bosch East Africa have been appointed as the full MEP
(Mechanical Electrical and Piping) Engineers on a new,
privately owned, 130 bed hospital to be built in Nairobi.
There is a shortage of medical facilities in Nairobi and this
hospital’s location will meet the needs of the local community,
who otherwise would have to travel substantial distances to
receive proper medical treatment.
The hospital will consist of five operating theatres, pre and
post operation wards, ICU, NICU, HDU, a maternity section and
general male and female wards.
Bosch East Africa are responsible for the full design, drawings,
documentation, tender process, construction supervision and
testing and commissioning of the following services:
• Electrical reticulation, lighting, small power, ICT and nurse call
systems
• Backup generators and uninterruptible power supplies
• Potable Water Supply
• Secondary water treatment through reverse osmosis
• Plumbing and foul water drainage
• Solar-heated water throughout the hospital
• Air-conditioning and ventilation system
• Fresh air supply and smoke extraction systems
• A fire-fighting system
• Medical gas installation for oxygen, medical air, nitrous oxide
and vacuum in operating theatres, ICU and wards
• Kitchen and laundry facilities and cold rooms.
The project draws on all the disciplines offered by Bosch East
Africa and is scheduled for completion in February 2018.
