Ng’andu Consulting Ltd was formed in 2009 as an
offshoot of Ng’andu-UWP. This was a locally Zam-
bian registered joint venture, between Mr. Abel
Ng’andu and the South African company UWP Con-
sulting Engineers. The successful operation lasted
for 6 years, until late 2009, when the decision was
made to separate and continue operations as two
separate entities, taking the newly created Ng’andu
Consulting to new heights of success. The firm has
an abundance of experience in the design and su-
pervision of road and bridge infrastructure work in
the SADC region, particularly in Zambia.
“We are instigating a real change for our company, our
industry, and for ourselves. Very few Zambians are
able to operate their own consulting firms, and even
fewer of these firms have offices abroad. We are the
only Zambian consulting company, with a significant
presence outside of Zambia. We have opened a
branch in Rwanda, and are will be working on a large
soccer stadium in Kigali, among other projects that we
have in the pipeline.”

Ng’andu Consulting is striving to become an inter-
nationally recognized private firm for their interdis-
ciplinary work on infrastructure project development
and research. Their visionary executive staff are
also heavily reinvesting into the firm’s employees via
continuous training and education programs, setting
them completely apart from their competitors operat-
ing in Zambia. In addition, Ng’andu Consulting has
planted the seeds of a globally oriented, Zambian
based infrastructure project and research Think Tank
that the firm hopes to further develop in the future.
“Most local companies don’t invest into training their
employees. What truly sets us apart is that we are
heavily investing in our most valuable resource, our
people.”
Abel Ng’andu
Managing Director of Ng’andu Consulting
The firm’s local knowledge, contacts, and reputation,
paired with their global expertise and knowledge
have made Ng’andu Consulting the ideal partner of
choice for new entrants into the Zambian market that
seek engineering consulting services.
The wide range of services offered by Ng’andu
Consulting consists of the design and rehabilitation
