Home: Construction: What we do

SMALL CHANGE BIG DIFFERENCE

The construction industry is at the heart of international development. As such the infrastructure and building industry is one of the largest contributors to the global economy. The change of management of Taysec represents an important change of approach. The business was divided into three companies: Taysec Homes, Taysec Facilities Management and Taysec Construction, to form the Taysec Group – representing a change from being a traditional builder to Taysec as a broader entrepreneur, developer and provider of professional services.

INTEGRATED SERVICES

Too often in Africa there are cases where ambitious projects are completed and then quickly fall into disuse due to the inability to carry out effective maintenance. In other cases, savings made in capital expenditure lead to unexpected increases in operating expenditure. As both the leading Design & Build contractor and the leading Facilities manager in Ghana, Taysec is in a unique position to be able to deliver the best whole-life balance to any project.

Many stakeholders are involved in the design, fabrication and construction process

of modern development projects. Design and supply chain specification from different stakeholders have to work together to meet budget and schedule objectives as well as comply with quality and health and safety standards. These variables need to be managed within an integrated services approach. Public, private and voluntary sector investors, government departments and international agencies, construction and real estate operators all need to rely on a specialist provider of local intelligence and independent supervision to lead project delivery within the African environment.

Taysec provides integrated professional services to the construction industry for independent evaluation, monitoring and assessment on behalf of clients to give the confidence that systems and products are designed and constructed according to specification. From creative ideas to topping out, there are innumerable decisions to be made in the construction process. Risk management and dealing with the unexpected is a constant challenge of the African environment. Taysec builds on over six decades of construction experience in Africa to give clients confidence in the decision-making process and offering time-tested solutions to complex construction problems.

Taysec aims to serve clients across the full spectrum of the construction industry – owners, developers, design professionals, architects and engineers, contractors and sub-contractors, construction product manufacturers and suppliers. Taysec is able to partner with any project at every phase of the construction process. From project concept to project delivery, from bidding to procurement, financing and bonding, to contract negotiation, project supervision and beyond.
