Awico Engineering

The establishment of AWICO hatched as a small metal fabrication workshop on Ogwanguzi Road, Plot 2, Lira Municipality, with the aim of having a company that could unite a group of five persons with common vision. The five Directors then agreed to generate a name from the Luo word AWICO which means 'head of men'. It then agreed that the word be written as AWICO. We offer multidisciplinary project delivery for both local and national companies working within Uganda. Our approach, and the cornerstone of our culture, is to self-perform using our own people, plant and equipment to better control safety, programming, quality, environmental and industrial relations aspects of our projects to the highest level. Our firm is comprised of a team of creative, talented architects and designers; who have extensive experience in a variety of building types including hospitality, residential, commercial and institutional projects, often with challenging programs, budgets, schedules and site constraints. We combine the flexibility, personal attention and accessibility of an engineering firm with a strong grounding in the principles of a large commercial practice. We are experts at hospitality; we incorporate the best qualities of a contemporary luxury hotel into every project that we design. We make the residential, commercial and institutional buildings gracious, inviting and appealing to the senses. We craft buildings that create unique identities for our corporate and institutional clientele with the pleasure of materials that tell the narrative of each project.
