Osborn Consulting Engineers provides high-quality structural, civil engineering and project management services for Greenfield and Brownfield projects in the civil infrastructure, oil and gas, mining and minerals processing, industrial, commercial and residential sectors, from concept and design through to construction, commissioning, operations and shutdown maintenance.

 

Between 1983 (when we commenced in Warwick) and late 2022, our Directors were Peter Osborn, Bob Lane, Arkadius Feininger and Peter Brown, and in October 2022, we came under the new Directorship of Cam MacDiarmid and Tim Heldt. Osborn Consulting Engineers has been built on solid engineering fundamentals, we are a technically and geographically diverse organisation, and under our new ownership we continue to move forward with a well-established commercial vehicle, a strategic growth plan, robust leadership, and a team exceptionally talented people to service existing and new customers.

 

Over the past 40 years we have been a key technology supplier for niche industry leaders including grain storage structures, architectural fabric structures, and industrial fabric structures. In addition to our base business in structural and civil, we also provide bespoke consulting, project management, asset infrastructure management, inspection and reliability engineering services for bridges, roads, mechanical and piping applications. We also cover continuous improvement of production and maintenance systems and processes, auditing of engineering documentation for compliance purposes, and process safety and incident investigations, including HAZOP facilitation, MoC and RCA.
