A century in Singapore

Our journey in Singapore began in 1902, when Sir William Henry Preece, an electrical engineering visionary, conducted a feasibility study for electric lighting.

His son, Arthur Henry Preece, carried forward Sir William's work, designing the first major electric power station in Singapore, the St James Power Station, in 1923.

Fast forward to 1973, we were invited by the government to explore alternative solutions for a bridge over the Kallang River, as part of Singapore’s first metro project - the East-West and North-South Line. This marked the beginning of a long and fruitful collaboration with Singapore and regional clients, which continues to this day.

Now, we have a team of nearly 300 talented professionals based in Singapore, working on iconic and complex projects in the city-state and across the Asia Pacific region.  
From achieving world firsts in tunnelling to delivering innovative solutions in future aviation, we've been involved in many iconic and complex projects throughout our 100+ years in the country.

Through collaboration and connectivity across our company, we continue to contribute to Singapore's economic, social and environmental success.
