Southern African Institute for Industrial Engineering

Welcome to the virtual on-line office of the Southern African Institute for Industrial Engineering!

As the name implies, the field of Industrial Engineering deals with the engineering of industrial or industrious undertakings. Modern Industrial Engineering is concerned with the integration of resources and processes into cohesive strategies, structures and systems for the effective and efficient production of quality goods and services.

It draws upon specialised knowledge and skills in the mathematical, physical, behavioural, economic and management sciences and fuses them with the principles and methods of engineering analyses and design to find optimal and practical solutions, which contribute to the success and prosperity of an industrial undertaking, thereby making a fundamental contribution to the creation of wealth.

Our vision is to be a vibrant, learned society, representing and promoting all Industrial Engineers in Southern Africa.
