Professional Indemnity Insurance for Engineers | Architects | Quantity Surveyors

Professional Indemnity (PI) Insurance is essential for engineers, architects, and quantity surveyors, offering critical protection against claims arising from professional errors, omissions, or negligence in their specialized fields.

For professionals registered with regulatory bodies such as the Engineers Board of Kenya (EBK), Board of Registration of Architects and Quantity Surveyors (BORAQS), and other institutions, PI insurance is often a mandatory requirement for licensing and practice certification.
