ABOUT US
We are a leading black-owned and managed national professional services firm and are proudly a level 1 BBBEE contributor. Our philosophy is based on providing seamless and consistent service to our clients wherever they are located in South Africa.
Mission
To provide the intellectual capital that will act as a catalyst in developing effective solutions for our clients. Our obsession is adding value.
Vision
To be recognized by our clients and competitors as the benchmark in service delivery within our industry and chosen markets. Where our people are known for their innovation and problem solving abilities. To adapt and change continually with our business leader partners.
Our History
Twenty one years ago, at the age of 29, managing director Roshan Morar, left an established accountancy firm – Gouws and Strauss – to set up his own practice, working out of a small office in Church Street, Pietermaritzburg. At the time, the move was considered a risky one, given the number of established accountancy firms already in the city, and the natural reluctance of business owners to switch accountants who perform what is regarded as “a critical service”. Out of this calculated risk, Morar Incorporated Chartered Accountants was established. Today, the firm has branches in all major provinces. It pursues a service-driven, quality-oriented ethos with a strong emphasis on personal relationships. The firm is owned in majority by historically-disadvantaged individuals.
In the case of Morar Incorporated, the contribution of our clients to the success of the firm has been critical. A personalised approach to our work has been a consistent hallmark of the practice and our emphasis on building personal relationships continues today in our belief that, “no client is too small.” From the start the firm geared itself towards black-owned businesses, many of which were small and medium-sized family owned businesses. Today, these businesses remain an important focus of our auditing and tax services work.

E-caps/Performance Management
BACKGROUND
The ECAPS concept was developed in 1999 as a result of the gap identified between an organisation’s strategy and the operational implementation and the management of this strategy.
The ECAPS brand has been introduced to a wide range of organisations in the Private Sector. More than 200 organisations in Africa ,UK ,Europe and Australia have used or are using the model in one form or the other.
In 2013 Morar Incorporated identified the value that ECAPS would add to the Public Sector and after extensive research and development a Public Sector model was developed in line with the National Treasury Framework for managing performance information and the Results Based Management approach.
