The systems inside the Pacific’s most demanding buildings.
Temo Consulting is a Fiji-based practice of professional engineers. We design, document and commission the electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, fire and technology systems that buildings and infrastructure depend on, across five countries, since 2002.
A service suited exactly to the client’s requirement: a single discipline where that is all you need, a fully managed multi-discipline team where it is not.
Our work is not confined to design and documentation. We participate in the planning of areas and rooms so the functional relationships between architecture, services and maintenance satisfy the client’s environmental and operational needs. Accurate cost planning, project delivery and validating system performance before handover are part of our quality assurance control.
On large projects the availability of a full multi-discipline service returns economies in both time and cost. Every commission is personally overseen by the principal or a senior engineer.
About the practice →Four practices. Nine disciplines. One coordinated team.
Engage one practice on its own, or the whole team under a single quality-assurance regime.
Building Systems
01The services that make a building habitable and operable, designed, documented and commissioned together rather than in isolation.
Infrastructure
02Everything outside the building line: reticulation, treatment and the civil works that carry it, including construction supervision and contract administration.
Fire & Life Safety
03Fire engineering and the compliance evidence that gets a building consented, assessed against local authority requirements and international standards.
Technology & Control
04The intelligence layer: communications backbone, security, and the automation that ties plant and services into one operable system.
The same disciplines, applied to very different problems.
Hotel and resort facilities form a significant portion of our activity, the sector where services engineering most directly decides guest experience and operating cost.
Masterplanning & energy studies
Involved from the earliest stage, where servicing strategy still has room to change the plan and the plant budget.
Guest comfort and back-of-house
Room and area planning so the relationship between architecture, services and maintenance access actually works in operation.
Commissioning before handover
Systems validated against design intent before the property opens, not after the first guest complaint.
Offices, education and government facilities, including services upgrades carried out in buildings that have to keep operating throughout.
Staged work in occupied buildings
Phasing and switching strategies that keep tenants in place while plant and distribution are replaced.
Statutory approvals
Fire reports and compliance statements prepared for local authority requirements and international standards.
Cost planning that holds
Accurate services budgeting early, then budget control through delivery as part of our QA regime.
External services infrastructure: electrical HV/LV, hydraulics, communications and gas reticulation, with the civil design and site supervision to deliver it.
Reticulation across a site
HV/LV distribution, water supply, drainage and communications designed as one coordinated network.
Water and waste-water
Supply, drainage and sewerage treatment plant design for sites without reliable municipal servicing.
Construction supervision
Contract administration and observation on the ground, the part remote consultants cannot offer here.
Industrial process machinery projects, where the plant is the point and the building exists to serve it.
Process machinery
Plant selection, servicing and integration with the building systems around it.
Automation & control integration
Design, selection and systems integration so plant and services report to one control layer.
Equipment procurement
Specification, tendering and procurement support for long-lead plant into the islands.
Browse by sector or by country.
No projects match that combination, but it is likely we have done the work. Ask us directly.

Campus services and communications backbone
Energy study and plant replacement strategy
Fire compliance review and remediation design
Sewerage treatment plant for an island development
Back-of-house and guest-comfort systems, staged refurbishment
What we have learned engineering in the islands.
Designing building services for a Category 5 season
Plant location, switchboard protection and the recovery decisions that determine whether a property reopens in days or months.
Fire compliance across five jurisdictions
Where local authority requirements and international standards diverge, and what that means for a regional developer’s documentation.
The energy study that pays for the plant
Why servicing strategy decided at masterplan stage moves a resort’s lifetime running cost more than any equipment choice later.
We understand and protect the client’s needs, and develop building services with realism, fit for purpose, and delivered as contracted.
