History

EMS MEKOROT PROJECTS is the result of the concentration of all the Mekorot operation units into one body, carried out within the company reorganization effected at Mekorot from 2005 to 2008. The objective of the reorganization was to consolidate all the Mekorot operation units into one multidisciplinary framework.

The five units that were consolidated are:

¨      EMS (Electromechanical Services) Ltd.

¨      construction equipment

¨      The three regional construction units (North, Center and South)

During the first stage, the employees worked at an “Operations Division” for a period of 3 years (2005 – 2008). The Operations Division was carefully observed during this period. The preliminary stage was successful and the Division became a Mekorot subsidiary - EMS Mekorot Projects Ltd. Consequently, all the know-how and experience were incorporated into a single body, which became a unique organization both in Israel and worldwide.

The foundations of EMS Mekorot Projects were laid by the pioneers who established the State of Israel. The know-how and experience came with the various waves of immigration: drillers came from Poland, builders from Germany, engineers who had survived the Holocaust and laborers from all over the Diaspora. Professional terminology have become a part of the terminology used by the Company’s employees to this very day. The Company’s history is interwoven with that of the State of Israel.  Although there have been changes in frameworks and titles, the vision of the Company remains the same, namely: executing all of the work without the need for foreign workers, from the drilling stage  until the water flows through the faucets.

The units were consolidated as part of the Company reorganization in 2008.
