Specific project programming, project management and related services are also an expertise of the team at EDMAC.

Based on years of experience, EDMAC offers comprehensive solutions in the development of highways, roads & bridges. We offer superior support across the pre-construction, construction and post-construction phases of the project.

  • Public enquiries

  • Road geometry

  • Loading specification

Construction:

EDMAC has a reputation for tight control and supervision of contractor’s activities while ensuring quality, economy, safety and timely completion of projects. We work in close coordination with the client on cash-flow forecasts, programs and progress of the works. Wherever necessary, EDMAC will advice the contractor on appropriate effective construction methods and procedures to the mutual benefits of contractor and client.

EDMAC has a specialist Project Management Division that not only provides services to major infrastructure projects but also gives advice and support to all other critical projects.

Post-construction:

Our construction methodology is competent to administer and program maintenance activities both in the immediate post-construction period and subsequently. Advice management services and technical assistance are available for routine and periodic maintenance methods and procedures. Appropriate maintenance budgets and effective implementation are essential if the capital investments made previously on the provision of the highway or road network are to yield full benefit to the client and road user. The crux of rehabilitation works is to build on the current integrity of the existing road construction and structures and to minimize the nature and extent of further new additional works consistent with standards to be achieved. EDMAC is adept at all of these.
