MG Group of companies widens its horizons
View(s):While Sri Lanka remains strategically placed to benefit from the changing global marketplace, development of economic and social infrastructure is pivotal to unleashing the country’s true potential, says a top local consultancy.
With a distinct focus on bringing economic success, serving the increasing infrastructure requirements of the country, the MG Group of Companies (MGG), a dynamic trailblazer in the form of a network of independent companies, has broken new ground.
Established in 1998 as MG Consultants (Pvt) Ltd (MGC), when international consultancy firms dominated the infrastructure industry as the lead consultants and local counterparts only provided a limited range of support, MGC has a unique ability to drive fundamental change through its depth and breadth of expertise and experience assisted the organisation to break away from the shackles of international firms and traditional norms and be the first local consultancy firm to be recognised as the lead consultant for many projects, the company said in a media release.
MGC strengthened its ascent through the acquisition of the country’s pioneering engineering consultancy firm, Engineering Consultants (Pvt) Ltd
(ECL) in 2011. ECL is endorsed as the most respected engineering services provider in the industry. Together they offer the widest and most varied range of consultancy services unmatched in Sri Lanka, it said.
Infrastructure-related entities that complement each other were added to the group such as ECL Energy (Pvt) Ltd and Enterprise Technology (Pvt) Ltd (ETPL). ECL Energy has carved a niche for itself in the renewable energy industry as a highly successful hydro power solution provider for both local and international projects while ETPL is a leading Network Systems Integrator offering SMART ICT Infrastructure solutions.
Further expansion was witnessed through the amalgamation of Nimbus Venture (Pvt) Ltd, expanding the group’s ability to provide smart IT platforms and cutting-edge technology for its clients.
Through these strategic acquisitions and having consistently outgrown boundaries MGG has grown into an international reputed brand.
With a global footprint spanning eight countries, a proven reputation locally and internationally for technical excellence and exceptional client satisfaction, to-date MGG has completed 1235 projects, valued at over US$1.8 billion.
