Abstract

Consulting engineering Economic conditions in the past led to the service provided by consulting engineers being downgraded to that of a commodity and priced in terms of time. The notion has been one of selling or buying time rather than expertise.” Rose told the media that SAACE aimed to assist member firms to change their mindset from the “survival mode” of the past and rather to improve the quality and professionalism of their service so that clients would recognise the value provided by them and, therefore, be more amenable to paying for that value.
