Port Engineering and Design
Technology has driven many of the changes seen by the maritime industry and is at the forefront of decision making when it comes to operational and strategic decision making.
We believe the biggest challenges facing the maritime industry can be solved in part via several technological initiatives, which provide efficient and comparatively low-cost, such as 3D visualisation and data modelling tools.
Our approach is to review the technology and digital infrastructure landscape inside the port and interfacing with it. This enables us to identify opportunities to harmonise and consolidate existing solutions and then suggest emerging technologies to meet the ever-changing needs of the maritime environment.
Our engineering and design services include:
- Master planning
- Transport planning
- Port seaside civil engineering solutions
- Port landside civil engineering solutions
- Terminal layouts
- Architectural solutions including space planning
- Advice on terminal commercial opportunities
- Structural engineering solutions
- Specialist pavement engineering
- Tunnels equipment design
- Building services design
- Security
- Environmental assessment (in the context of the overall port or terminal specific construction and operation)
Port Project & Cost Management
Project and cost management is more than adhering to a critical path and managing the money, it is about understanding the complexities involved in moving a project from concept to reality; managing various stakeholders, maintaining momentum, juggling priorities, and sticking to a plan whilst maintaining flexibility to find successful work arounds where you need to.
Services include:
- Project management
- Cost management
- Audit function

Capacity Building, Upskill and Skill Transfer
CSH will organize the transfer of skills and knowledge to build and develop the Host Nation’s human capital and enhance its added value.
Capacity-building is defined as the process of developing and strengthening the skills, instincts, abilities, processes and resources that organizations and communities need to survive, adapt, and thrive in a fast-changing world. An essential ingredient in capacity-building is transformation that is generated and sustained over time from within; transformation of this kind goes beyond performing tasks to changing mindsets and attitudes.
- Identify the skills that are relevant to the transfer process – and the people who hold them.
- Prioritize the skills to be covered by the transfer plan, for example by using a criticality table.
- Organize the transfer of skills using a precise methodology.
- Plan, coordinate and monitor the transfer of knowledge.
- Train the skill holder to help him/her to transfer knowledge to the learner in the best possible way.
