Happy 61st Birthday Isipani Construction
Isipani has seen tremendous growth over the past ten years . We believe this is because we have taken the time to implement strong management structures , and have reinforced our value system within the business , making sure that everyone who works for Isipani understands them , and why living those values matters .
Isipani has followed a conservative strategy , and focused on our core business and it has paid dividends . We chose to grow organically , purchasing new vehicles , equipment , and formwork when we ’ ve seen there is more than just a onceoff need for it .
We ’ ve also grown our people up through the business , taking them on as apprentices , or just out of college , or university , and training , mentoring , upskilling , and promoting them , because there is no substitute for a team member with that depth of experience . We believe this investment in our team is why our staff turnover is so low , and why each member is reliable , productive , passionate and accountable for everything they do .
We ’ re a lot bigger than we were 61 years ago , however , our management
team is still just as involved , applying the same ethos , and attention to detail as Jan van der Sluys did when he first started the business . You will still find Isipani ’ s directors and shareholders active on site , and involved with day-to-day operations ,
ensuring everything is running according to schedule , and is of the highest standard .
We pride ourselves on teamwork – with our colleagues , and with our clients , and the professional teams and suppliers on site . When you have a mutual sharing of ideas and expertise , it is easier to conceptualise workable , often innovative solutions to challenges . That results in everyone delivering a high-quality project at the end of the day .
We are hugely grateful to our clients . We have been privileged to work with so many of you , on multiple projects over the years . Our businesses have grown together , we have learned together , and we had some fun together . We hope to keep doing it long after we have handed over to the next generation of Isipani leaders .
The best is yet to come !
Regards Wynand Smit Managing Director of Isipani Construction
