Our approach.
We believe in the power of value-adding partnerships, and strive for operational excellence in every project we undertake.
Effective planning and execution is key – and the starting point of all engagements. This is achieved through process-driven project excellence; clear communication on lead times and professional after-sales service.
Our dynamic team is committed to On-Time-In-Full project delivery. This is linked to our commitments of superior service and competitive pricing.
Supplier partnerships
Our supplier partnerships extend to both procurement of materials and sub-contracting specific pieces of work.
Through solutions-based consultation with our suppliers, we source fit-for-purpose raw materials which we then convert as needed.
We then execute on our own or in partnership with industry experts, especially in the shop-fitting and interiors space, pairing the right team with the right project.
Inkulu’ s strict contingency policy ensures that we hold stock of all crucial items needed on your project. This means we’ll be able to continue work even if there’s an interruption in production sources/resources. We’ve also built relationships with a variety of suppliers to ensure business continuity even if something unexpected happens.
Environmental responsibility
At the heart of all we do, however, is environmental responsibility.
Our aim is to have a positive impact on the environments and communities in which we operate. We want to enrich these – leaving a positive impact and legacy.
We achieve this through active stewardship, managing the following key elements and practices:
-
Protecting the environment by recycling waste generated through the day-to- day operations of our business
​
-
Vigilantly managing the natural resources used in all our manufacturing and construction processes
​
-
Efficiently managing our fleet to reduce fuel consumption
Our team.
Riaan leads our team, taking pride in being hands-on and personally involved in projects.
Riaan Sutherland, Managing Director and Founder.
Riaan has significant experience in the corporate construction space, bringing invaluable expertise to each project.
Starting out in corporate in 1995, he soon discovered a gap for a turnkey construction business that could offer high quality, reliable, efficient and "honest" solutions. He went on to model this "ideal" business, taking a leap of faith in 2000 and founding Inkulu Construction. He has not looked back since.
As the company grew, Riaan realised his responsibility had grown to include not only himself but his employees and their families too. This fuelled him to work even harder, driving Inkulu’s ethos of high quality and service.
