YOUR JOURNEY TO ENGINEERING EXCELLENCE STARTS HERE
What is Consulting Engineering?
Consulting Engineering provides expert advice and solutions for your engineering projects. This includes designing, planning, and managing projects to ensure they meet technical standards, regulatory requirements, and client expectations.
At MOYO, Consulting Engineering involves both the owner’s (your) engineering services and our turnkey engineering services. We engage with you onsite, combining operational and information technology solutions to deliver complex and industry-leading engineering projects within the energy and mining sectors. We’re here to make things easier and more efficient for you.
What does a Consulting Engineer do?
A Consulting Engineer applies their expertise to various stages of your construction project, from planning and design to construction.
Typically, they offer technical expertise, which varies depending on the branch of engineering, collaborate with clients to project plan and design, problem-solve during any technical hurdles, and provide oversight and project management to keep the project on track. Think of them as your expert on speed dial for keeping your project running smoothly and successfully.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
FAQs
If we didn't get to your question, please reach out and let's have a conversation.
Management consulting focuses on improving business strategies, operations, and organisational performance. Engineering consulting, on the other hand, provides technical expertise for designing, planning, and managing engineering projects to ensure they meet technical standards and regulatory requirements.
An engineering consultant typically:
- Offers expert technical advice.
- Designs and plans projects.
- Solves technical problems during project execution.
- Manages projects to ensure they stay on track and meet all requirements.
Not necessarily. A consultant often has specialised expertise and experience, which can command a higher role in certain contexts, but it doesn't always mean they are higher in rank than an engineer.
The purpose of an engineering consulting firm is to provide specialised knowledge and solutions to help clients successfully complete engineering projects, improve operational efficiency, ensure safety and compliance, and optimise resource use.
