Introduction
The M. H. Aitah NESPAK Engineering Consultancy was established in 1997 as a professional company jointly by the National Engineering Services Pakistan Pvt.

Before establishing the company, NESPAK independently made its debut in Saudi Arabia in 1978 by setting up a joint venture with the Ar-Riyadh Development Authority. Later, the Company established its Regional Office in Riyadh in 1982. NESPAK started its association with various Saudi companies in terms of business acquisition and the provision of consultancy services in the KSA.

The other prominent companies having business association with NESPAK include Zuhair-Fayez Partnership, Rashid Geotechnical and Materials Engineers and DAR Engineering.
