Opus International Consultants is an international multi-disciplinary infrastructure consultancy operating in five markets – Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. Opus provides professional consultancy services in transportation asset development and management, building design, water and other infrastructure.[1]
History
Opus’ origins began with the Ministry of Works and Development, a former New Zealand government entity which was established in 1876. Corporatized in 1988, the Ministry of Works and Development became a State-Owned-Enterprise and was thereafter known as Works and Development Services Corporation NZ Limited.[2] In 1996, Kinta Kellas purchased Works and Development Services and the company was rebranded as Opus International Consultants Limited in 1997. From 2002 onwards, Opus developed its global markets through a series of acquisitions and in 2007, Opus was listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange. Today, Opus has approximately 3,000 staff throughout Australia, Canada, The United Kingdom, New Zealand and United States of America.
