02 Words from the Chairman It is hard to believe that we are almost midway through 2013 and it is good to pause and reflect on a number of recent highlights within Bosch Holdings. Despite a very challenging construction environment, we have continued to expand our operations globally with recent projects in over 20 countries. I would like to highlight the following articles in this edition of Enginuity, which you may find interesting: • We are expanding our operations in Gauteng with Bosch Projects and Bosch Munitech joining the existing Bosch Stemele offices. The new office will enable us to serve our clients with a bigger team of experienced staff permanently based in the Gauteng Region. • Level 8 CIDB multi-disciplinary gradings recently awarded to Bosch Munitech are unique within the municipal engineering services sector, and demonstrate the company’s capacity to undertake large multi-disciplinary engineering contracting projects. • Bosch Holdings, in a joint venture with Thabo Consulting, Thabile Consulting and Nemai Consulting, has been appointed to Eskom’s Engineering House – Panel B. • Articles on current projects in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Guyana, Brazil, Barbados and Thailand.
