ABOUT US

BACKGROUND

CivilTEC was originally created in 2006 by Richard Gruiters who is also CivilTEC’s Principal Consultant.  In 2010 Richard took a sabbatical from his business to assist with starting up a new Design Centre for a National Consultancy, before moving to an International Consultancy to further develop his skills and project experience, while also contributing to the management of the company’s national design and drafting resourcing.

In 2017 Richard decided it was time to get back to CivilTEC and carry on what he had started – working closely with clients to help them develop and deliver their vision, while providing exceptional customer service and project delivery.

Due to the rapid growth of CivilTEC’s business, in 2018 Richard was joined by Sam Green, a highly skilled Civil Design Engineer with the same passion for producing quality outputs and providing exceptional customer service.

The business continued to grow, requiring more staff, and Richard was able to secure the services of another talented local Engineer, with Josh Orringe joining the team in March 2020 as a Senior Design Manager.

In short, our passion is Road Design, while also utilising our broad engineering knowledge to provide clients and colleagues with robust technical solutions.
