About Us

Ngobeng Engineering & Planning (Pty) Ltd (NEP) stands at the forefront of South Africa’s built environment sector, shaping sustainable urban futures through innovative engineering, planning, and project management solutions. Established in late 2012 by visionary leader James Matingi Ngobeni, NEP builds upon the rich legacy of Matingi and Associates cc (M&A), a firm founded by Ngobeni in 1995. This foundation, combined with an initial partnership with Cycle of Blue Engineering (COBENG), allowed NEP to emerge as a multidisciplinary powerhouse in the industry.

Over nearly three decades since M&A’s inception, our company has grown to offer diverse yet strategic services covering Town Planning, Engineering, Project Management, Transport Planning, and Housing Development. While COBENG is no longer affiliated with NEP, the collaboration contributed to our comprehensive approach. Today, our team brings unparalleled expertise to every project, ensuring integrated solutions that balance community needs, environmental sustainability, and economic growth. This journey, from M&A’s founding to NEP’s establishment and growth, reflects our unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence in creating better, more sustainable urban spaces for all South Africans.
