As mining evolves, so has the company’s ability to meet clients' need for sustainable solutions.
Celebrating its 50th year, SRK Consulting recommits to the value of innovation especially in its core industries such as mining, where risks and challenges grow steadily in complexity.
When the founders of SRK Consulting - Oskar Steffen, Andy Robertson, and Hendrik Kirsten - set up in Johannesburg in 1974, their very business concept was an innovation: providing specialist consulting in geotechnical services and tailings design. This was unusual in an era when mining houses tended to be self-contained, generally employing all the skills they needed for their operations.
Growing to a 1700 strong global network of engineers and scientist has proved their vision. Honouring their golden anniversary, SRK Consulting has chosen ''Innovation in Focus'' as its theme for 2024, says Tim McGurk, Group CEO of SRK Global.
