NESPAK started its journey 38 years ago, and there was no
looking back in terms of growth and development. It offers a broad
spectrum of services in the realm of engineering consultancy ranging
from energy to environment as well as information technology. NESPAK
has always remained in the forefront, showing steady growth at home
and abroad. By the grace of God, the Company has emerged successful
in the ventures it has been engaged, both in the public and private
sectors.
In the years behind us, NESPAK saw several ups and downs in its
business acquisition and implementation of projects. Through the
years, it nevertheless rose to the challenges it came across and
continues to move ahead.
NESPAK made record progress during 2009-2010 by acquiring projects
worth
Rs. 10.16 billion compared to the last year's business of Rs. 6.5
billion, showing an increase of more than 56 percent. It acquired
101 new projects at home and abroad amid tough national and
international competition.
Major projects acquired in foreign countries include dams in
southern region of Saudi Arabia, transmission of water from Khulais
and Rabigh dams to Jeddah in Makkah Al-Mukarramah region,
upgradation of roads and distribution network in Oman, three sports
clubs in Qatar and an irrigation/drainage project in Ethiopia.
NESPAK remained actively involved in reconstruction activities in
Afghanistan as construction work progressed on projects in the
health and education sectors.
The major projects acquired in Pakistan during the year include West
Bank Bypass Project Muzaffarabad, Quick Impact Projects FATA, Prime
Minsiter's Southern Punjab Water Supply and Sewerage Schemes Multan,
Transmission Scheme for dispersal of power from Neelum-Jhelum
Hydropower Project, 500 kV transmission line 3rd circuit
Jamshoro-Moro-Dadu-Rahim Yar Khan and Moro Substation projects.
Strict quality assurance has always been the hallmark of NESPAK.
During the year, audit reports were generated after internal audits
were executed through the Internal Quality Audit Programme at all
NESPAK divisions/offices. Surveillance audits were carried out by
the lead auditor of Moody International at NESPAK's Lahore, Karachi
and Islamabad offices. NESPAK was issued the new standard and the
UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Services) Certificate by Moody
International for three years.
NESPAK is an icon of precision and engineering excellence and it
applies the same throughout the broad spectrum of its consultancy
services. Our strength lies in our professional staff. Specialised
training programmes are regularly held to enhance professional
capabilities of the employees. NESPAK Human Resource Division
organised a series of courses/lectures on technical, managerial and
support competencies during 2009-2010 at Lahore, Karachi and
Islamabad, imparting training to 527 employees. As many as 88
courses were conducted on project management, monitoring &
evaluation, assertive client handling, problem solving and decision
making. For support competencies, courses on thinking skills,
presentation skills, technical report writing, leadership and
conflict resolution were arranged.
NESPAK believes in quality work and meeting timelines for the
projects in hand. NESPAK's performance in the earthquake-hit areas
has been commendable, where it continues to play its role in the
reconstruction of the projects worth Rs. 15. 7 billion.
NESPAK is committed to its clients and staff and we cherish the core
values of integrity, respect and teamwork. In the service of its
clients, NESPAK pursues the highest standards of professionalism,
being open to new technologies and acting decisively and
consistently. In my second year as Managing Director, I reiterate my
goal to maintain the positive and nurturing environment within
NESPAK, keeping an open door policy, striving towards the path of
sustainable growth and the general well-being of its employees.
