Who we are?

Prism EMS is a multi-disciplinary consulting firm, providing specialised, sustainable and cost effective services in the field of water- and environmental resource management. The company was established in 2005 and has grown since then to a company that comprises various branches, to cover a large client base and offer services over Southern Africa.

What sets us apart?

The one factor that differentiates Prism EMS from most other consulting firms is simply this: We provide a service that covers all spectrums of the environmental field and take the time to get to know our client on a personal level.
We can compete with larger corporate consultancies in terms of expertise, capacity and product quality. But with Prism EMS you will not be just a client; we undertake to commit to your project from inception to completion thereof.

Our in-house proficiency means that we outsource only a limited scope of specialist studies. This ensures that we can, from the onset, advise our client on all the relevant aspects to be taken into account when deciding the way forward in respect of development, prospecting and/or mining rights applications and compliance with legislation where Compliance Notices have been issued.
