What Harrow Technical Services does

Harrow Technical Services Ltd, trading as Harrow, is a New Zealand-based professional engineering services firm founded in March 2016 and headquartered at 160 Schnapper Rock Road in Auckland, with a secondary office in Waiuku. The firm operates as a founder-owned private limited company under directors Deanna Morrow and Susan Harding, delivering design, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, project management, HSNO (Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act) specialist services, and technical support to industrial clients across six verticals: heavy industry, food & beverage/dairy, mining & quarries, baggage handling, medical/health care, and utilities & infrastructure.

The company's core technical capability is built on a multi-disciplined engineering team — including a senior project manager/principal electrical engineer, a senior electrical engineer/SME, and a project support manager/SAP specialist — supported by additional project support staff. Its technology stack spans established industrial engineering tools: Auto-CAD and Micro-station for design, Delta V Controls for process automation, SAP for enterprise systems integration, PLCs and VSD systems for industrial control, Smart-plant for plant engineering, and MV & HV power distribution expertise for high-voltage infrastructure. HSNO regulatory compliance is positioned as a distinct specialist service line, providing a regulatory credential that constrains the pool of qualified providers in New Zealand.

Harrow's business model is project-based professional services sold through B2B enterprise field sales, direct client engagement, and B2B word-of-mouth referrals. The firm does not disclose revenue, pricing, customer counts, or contract values. Its growth posture is consistent with a niche specialist consultancy: focused delivery across regulated industrial verticals in New Zealand, with no disclosed plans for geographic expansion, acquisitions, partnerships, or external funding.
