MS-Consult originated from a practice which was established in 1991 by Naas Muller and Paul du Plessis and till recently operated under the name Muller Du Plessis Quantity Surveyors. Although Paul du Plessis retired from the practice a few years ago the practice carried on operating under the name Muller Du Plessis. The practice name, however, was re-styled in March 2022 to MS-Consult.
The practice has grown substantially since its early days and today provides a wide range of construction cost management services in the infrastructure, building and civil engineering fields. Although
MS-Consult is located in the Western Cape we undertake projects anywhere in Southern Africa
