Everything checked twice
No deliverable leaves this office having been seen by only one engineer. A second reviewer who did not prepare the work checks it against the source document. It costs us time and it has saved clients contracts.
Founded 2014 · Kathmandu
The engineering back office Nepal's builders were missing.
Twelve years, six hundred tenders and forty-six billion rupees of documented contract value — built on a simple idea: capable contractors should not lose work to paperwork.
Our Story
Founded because good contractors kept losing work they should have won.
In 2014 four civil engineers who had spent a decade between them on sites across Bagmati and Gandaki kept running into the same frustration. The contractors they worked for were technically capable, their crews were good, their work stood up. And they kept losing tenders.
Not on price. On paperwork. A registration certificate that had expired eleven days earlier. A rate analysis nobody could defend when the evaluation committee asked how the figure was reached. A joint venture agreement missing a power of attorney. Small, entirely fixable failures that ended a submission before the price envelope was ever opened.
The same pattern appeared after award. Measurement books written up from memory weeks after the pour. Bills that took three months to certify because the abstract never tied to the record. Legitimate escalation entitlements that were never claimed because nobody was tracking the index. Extension of time claims that failed because the notice period had quietly expired while everyone was busy building.
None of this was a shortage of engineering ability. It was a shortage of capacity for the work that happens away from the site — and nobody was offering that as a service. So we built the firm to do it.
Twelve years later, Parengyali runs as a shared engineering back office for contractors, design consultants and public agencies across all seven provinces. We have compiled more than six hundred tenders, documented over two hundred projects, and supported contracts worth more than forty-six billion rupees. Our name appears on almost none of them, and that has always been the arrangement.

What Drives Us
Mission, vision and the values we actually enforce.
Every firm publishes values. Ours are written as rules because that is how we apply them — including when applying them costs us work.
Our Mission
To give every builder in Nepal — not only the largest firms — access to documentation, quantification and contract administration of a standard that wins tenders and gets bills certified. The technical capability to do this well has always existed in the country. What has been missing is a way to buy it without building an entire department.
Our Vision
A Nepali construction sector where contracts are won on merit and settled on evidence rather than on argument — where the contractor who built the work correctly and recorded it properly is also the one who gets paid on time. Every measurement book we maintain and every rate we can defend moves the industry fractionally in that direction.
Accuracy before speed
If a deadline forces a choice between fast and correct, we tell the client before we start rather than deliver something that fails later.
Evidence before opinion
Every figure carries a build-up, every claim carries a record. We do not submit positions we cannot demonstrate.
Confidentiality without exception
We decline any assignment that places us on two sides of the same package, and we have turned down work to hold that line.
Bad news travels fastest
If we find a problem in your position, you hear it the same day. Discovering it late is always more expensive than hearing it early.
Our Journey
From a two-desk office in Tinkune to a nationwide technical bench.
Every milestone below was earned on a real contract, for a real client, against a real deadline.
2014
The firm is founded
Four civil engineers register Parengyali in Kathmandu with a single mandate: take the documentation burden off contractors who were losing work they were technically capable of winning.
2016
First hundred tenders
The tender desk crosses one hundred compiled submissions and formalises the two-stage compliance check that has since become our signature control — no bid leaves the office reviewed by only one engineer.
2018
Billing and claims division opens
Client demand shifts from winning work to getting paid for it. We build a dedicated measurement, billing and claims team covering measurement books, running bills, escalation and extension of time.
2020
Fully remote back office
During nationwide restrictions we move every workflow onto a secure cloud platform. Not a single client deadline is missed — and the model becomes permanent, letting us serve districts far outside the valley.
2022
Technical manpower panel launched
We formalise a screened panel of engineers, sub-engineers and surveyors available for deployment, backed remotely by the Kathmandu technical desk. Seventy-two professionals are on the panel today.
2024
NPR 40 billion documented
Cumulative contract value quantified, billed or supported by our teams passes forty billion rupees, spanning federal, provincial and municipal works in all seven provinces.
2026
Digital contract records platform
We roll out a client portal giving contractors live visibility of measurement status, bill position, claim registers and document compliance across every active contract we support.
Why Clients Trust Us
Six reasons clients stop shopping around.
Engineering consultancies are easy to find in Kathmandu. Consistency is not. What clients tell us they value most is that the tenth submission we produce for them looks exactly like the first one did.
“We used to keep two staff busy full-time on billing and still submitted late. Parengyali took it over and our certification cycle dropped from about nine weeks to under four. That single change fixed our cash flow.”

Deadlines treated as fixed
We schedule backwards from your submission date and build in a buffer for the portal, the printer and the unexpected clarification. In twelve years we have missed a client deadline twice, and we told them both times before it happened.
03
Rates you can defend
Every rate we produce comes with its build-up attached — output, wastage, lead, plant, overhead. When an evaluator or auditor asks how you arrived at a figure, the answer is already in the file.
04
Confidentiality without exception
Signed NDAs, individual staff undertakings, segregated project workspaces, and an absolute rule against working on competing bids for the same package. Your rate library is yours alone.
05
Priced before we start
Written scope, written fee, written delivery dates — agreed before any work begins. No hourly meter, no revised invoice at the end of the month, no charge for a call to ask a question.
06
Engineers, not administrators
Every person handling your documents holds an engineering qualification and has worked on site. They recognise when a drawing quantity cannot be right, because they have built the detail themselves.

Free scope review · No obligation
Send us the document. We will tell you exactly what it needs.
A bidding document, a contract, a stalled bill, a stack of unrecorded measurements — whatever the position, a senior engineer will review it and come back within one working day with a written assessment, a timeline and a fixed price. There is no charge for this and nothing to sign.
NDA signed before any document is shared
Response within one working day
Fixed written fee, no hourly billing
