Specialist Technical Advisory Services
MCC Engineering & Technical Services Ltd provides independent technical assurance, fire engineering, risk and engineering consultancy services to developers, asset owners, investors, EPC contractors and operators across energy, infrastructure and high-hazard industries.
We provide specialist support throughout the project lifecycle, from planning, procurement and design through construction, commissioning and operation.
Our principal areas of expertise are Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), fire and explosion risk, technical assurance, engineering risk and complex infrastructure.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)

Managing Director, Fox Construction Ltd
On asking the Senior VP of Samsung Construction & Technology if he could vouch for me, his response was:
"I will assure anyone asking that they will expect you to walk on water based on my input".
- What more could I ask???
I worked closely with Mike whilst he was employed within my training company and whilst there, he was able to utilise his skills of writing successful tenders. Mike’s passion and attention to detail along with the approach he took to gathering the necessary information from the team was brilliant. Mike produced an effective, concise and compelling tender that had a very tight deadline attached to it. Not only were we successful but we also received the highest score out of all the other tenders submitted. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mike.
