The Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland

Mr Michael Moriarty has been elected President of the Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland for the term 2012/2013.

Michael is a Director of T. J. O’Connor & Associates, Consulting Engineers and is a Civil Engineering and Master of Engineering Science Graduate of University College Cork (UCC).

He has over 30 years’ experience in the planning and design of major structural engineering projects in the country and has acted as Project Director in the delivery of a number of landmark developments, for both private and public clients.

He has been involved over the past 10 years in all of the major issues dealt with by the Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland (ACEI), such as the new Public Procurement Contracts and Health and Safety Legislation.

In his year as President, he aims to devote his skills and experience to the extremely challenging Consulting Engineering environment resulting from the 80% collapse in the Construction Industry.

As the voice of the Consulting Engineering profession, it assists in resolving issues of importance for clients and Consultants alike and contributes to the development of relevant public policy through involvement in Working Groups, Government Committees, and the development of model Conditions of Engagement, and policy papers, etc.
