About NEMS

Over three decades of protecting contractor interests and resolving construction disputes across four continents.

Pakistan's Premier Construction Claims Consultancy

National Engineering & Management Services (NEMS) is a leading consultancy firm registered in both the United States and Pakistan, with a distinguished track record spanning over 30 years in construction claims, dispute resolution, and arbitration services.

Founded in 1993 as an engineering and management consultancy, NEMS has evolved into a full-spectrum construction law and claims firm — handling complex, multi-jurisdictional disputes for public and private sector clients across Pakistan, KSA, the Netherlands, and beyond.

With extensive expertise in managing complex construction contracts, NEMS provides tailored solutions that help clients navigate disputes, mitigate risks, and achieve fair outcomes.
