Profile

 

Subject was formed in 1974, by the staff of a group that had grown since its founding in 1960 by Mr. Shirish B Patel. The senior-most Associates have been with the firm since the early 1960's.


The Company functions on a profit-sharing basis, at all levels, from peon to senior-most Associate. Associateship is open to every engineer in the Company. Senior Associates have a shareholding in the Company.


Since it started the firm has focused exclusively on civil engineering. The decision not to branch out into complementary areas of mechanical or electrical engineering, despite the expressed desire of many clients for ancillary services in these areas, has been a conscious one: it has been felt that remaining an exclusively civil engineering firm is important so as not to dilute the quality of work that is being done in this field.


The pursuit of quality has been the driving force central to SPA’s work.


This applies from overall concepts through every stage of work to the thoroughness of final drawings. The aim is that the client should feel satisfied with every aspect of SPA’s service, but in particular appreciate the quality of the finished product.


Initially a design and consultancy firm, since 1992 the firm has expanded its project management capability, and has added full-time project supervision to the range of services it offers.


Subject was one of the earliest civil engineering firms to introduce computers into its day-to-day functioning. It is now heavily computerised. In 1983 a separate company was formed, SPA Software Private Limited, to expand SPA’s skills in computer usage. This firm developed many software products for the construction industry; unfortunately they were ahead of their time as the industry was not computerised at that time. SPA Software has been shut down as of late 2005.
