Our History
Enrik Corporation Pty Ltd first began trading as Enrik Engineering Pty Ltd in 1987. A full time office was setup during that year, pursuant to obtaining a small client list from direct approaches to builders and developers.
Within the first year of operation the professional staff comprised of 4 qualified Civil Engineers. The development of the company within the first two years was rapid, when considering its beginnings.
The 1987 to 1989 period was one of rapid development in an environment where professional resources were scarce in the Melbourne Market, due to the rate of development. The company was well placed to ride the 1989-1990 recession, as it was an expanding entity which was being run with lean overheads and although growth of the company slowed, it continued to actively chase customers. The company was carrying out approximately 500 to 800 engineering jobs per year during the recession years.
The recession provided an opportunity in the market place when MacGregor Soil & Rock Engineering was placed up for sale.
Andrew MacGregor was the founder of modern day soil testing techniques and had worked throughout Australia as a geotechnical engineer.
During the purchase negotiations, a relationship was developed between Andrew MacGregor and the directors of Enrik Corporation. Today, Andrew still remains as a consultant to the company.
The combined businesses of Enrik Engineering and MacGregor Consulting Engineers now carry out approximately 6000 to 7000 engineering projects per annum. The 6000 to 7000 has been sustained since 1994.
