Quantity surveying

Quantity surveying is the fusion and application of scientific, financial and legal knowledge in the construction industry. In any building project cost is the indicator of success, but it is equally constraining when it is not controlled. Quantity surveyors are qualified professionals who estimate, control and reconcile the costs before, during and after a project.

Our Aspirations

Jordaan Oosthuysen Nangolo aspires to become a greater role player in the Namibian, as well as African markets, through leveraging its existing networks in Africa.

Assume a greater role in value addition through PPP with various stakeholders in offering a complete solution in real estate and infrastructure development and management.

BEE

To truly empower talented individuals and align the practice with the Namibian demographics, financial assistance was given to previously disadvantaged Namibians to obtain their professional qualifications.

We are proud to state that Mr Nangolo, one of our study grant beneficiaries, obtained his qualification from the University of Cape Town in 2000. This incidentally made Mr Nangolo the first professionally qualified quantity surveyor in Namibia who comes from a previously disadvantaged background. Jordaan Oosthuysen Nangolo has also financially assisted two other previously disadvantaged Namibians to obtain professional qualifications.

In a further effort toward empowerment, the practice hosts training seminars for small contractors to enable them to achieve the needed competence and knowledge to profitably undertake projects.

Shareholding

  • Jordaan Oosthuysen Nangolo is currently the quantity surveying firm in Namibia with the largest proportion of its workforce comprising of previously disadvantaged employees, namely 83%.
  • 100% Namibian owned
  • 50% BEE owned
