AMPS Engineering Inc., a company out of neighbouring Suriname, has set up shop in Guyana, gravitating to a niche market and offering a solution to disturbances caused by power outages.
The company decided to capitalise on the opportunity, launching the business here, and adding to the 50 Surinamese businesses that already have a presence in the country.
AMPS is a provider of electrical EPC – Engineering, Procurement, and Construction – services tailored to meet business needs.
Headquartered in Suriname, Chief Executive Officer Andrew Baasaron said the company has more than a decade of experience in offering solutions specially tailored to client requirements.
“Our strength lies in our ability to deliver total solutions at competitive costs backed by excellent customer service,” the company boasts.
Baasaron started the business on his own in 2007 on a small scale and grew it to more than 80 employees currently.
“We stepped in to help with quality power,” he told an audience at the launching ceremony Tuesday night at the Pegasus Hotel in Georgetown.
The company claims to be a standard bearer in electrical, data, water, and mini hydro installations, along with elevator services. It also builds and maintains transmission and distribution infrastructure doing both overhead and underground installations, and provides tailor-made drone solutions in the industrial, commercial, and governmental sectors.
“Our intention is to add value to what is going on here,” Baasaron remarked.
Even with big competition, he believes the business’ ISO certification, and extensive training give him a competitive advantage.
Chairman of the Suriname-Guyana Chamber of Commerce, Dr. Vishnu Doerga observed that the introduction of AMPS to the Guyanese market strengthens ties between the two nations.
According to him, while over 50 Suriname companies are operating in Guyana, less than a dozen Guyanese companies are doing business in Suriname. “I personally want to see more companies spreading their wings in the Surniame market,” he charged.
