The company premiered in South Africa in 2006 when it won a 425-million rand public tender held by Trans-Caledon Tunnel Authority,the state agency responsible for bulk water infrastructure. [1] The selection of COVEC was described by a local trade publication as unsettling to the other short listed bidders,two local construction consortia. One consisted of Group Five Construction,Grinaker-LTA,Rainbow Construction and WBHO Construction;the other was Vaal Civils,made up of Concor,CCC,Kgalagadi Multi Projects,Thuso Water,SET-MAK Civils,Mascrete and Betsy Building. [1] COVEC's bid was 25% below the lowest other bid,and as a consequence local construction companies expressed fears about downward price pressure that would end hopes they had of a strong rebound in the construction market with better profit margins.

In Morocco,COVEC built the 67 km section of the Fez-Oujda road extending from Taza to Guercif. [2] The project presented difficulties in terrain and geology for COVEC,requiring the levelling of hills and valleys and provision of porous materials that would provide adequate drainage in a region with water absorbing soil. [2]
In Poland,COVEC, [3] won the bid for construction of a highway linking Warsaw with city of Berlin in September 2009,but didn't manage to complete construction and withdrew its operations from Poland,and is now facing the threat of a €200 million compensation claim,which include four month of projected toll losses and 10 percent fine. [4] Highway was planned to be ready for use at the time when UEFA Euro 2012 in Poland would begin,BÖGL a KRÝSL took construction after COVEC reneged contract and finished it on time.
