Engineering is in our DNA

For 20 years and counting, Soto has worked collaboratively with major companies in the heavy industrial and mineral resources sectors to design, build, and refine engineering solutions that enable them to compete in global markets.

The Soto way: design, build, refine

Engineering outstanding solutions

In practice, the Soto way is a three-step process that starts with getting to know you and working together to deliver outstanding outcomes, something we can all be proud of.

Design

We start with building an understanding of you, of your needs and the scope of the project. We care for our clients and treat them with respect. We value open communication and enduring relationships

Build

We take responsibility for delivering on our commitments. After the initial contact, we will promptly provide you with a task brief that outlines the scope, deliverables, timeline and fee. Our standards of professionalism drive us to be transparent in showing we’ve understood your needs and can meet your expectations.

Refine

Our team of specialists will get to work, they take ownership for the outcome and conduct their work with passion, creativity, and integrity. We strive to build on the relationship with you, maintaining clear and open communication. Our technical excellence and quality management systems underpin our drive for excellence.
