Overview

Abu Dhabi has a large pipeline of government, master-developer and infrastructure projects — from island developments such as Saadiyat, Yas and Al Reem to schools, healthcare, housing and utilities. Most are procured through formal tenders with detailed documents.

We help Abu Dhabi consultants, developers and contractors prepare those documents faster. Our quantity surveyors measure building, MEP and infrastructure works remotely, and our UAE contact keeps communication simple.

New buildings in Abu Dhabi must meet the Estidama Pearl Rating System, and design follows the Abu Dhabi International Building Code. Sustainability requirements — for example water-efficient fittings, insulation and metering — are kept as clear BoQ items, so bidders price them and compliance is easy to track.

Many Abu Dhabi projects include roads, utilities, landscape and irrigation packages. We measure the civil works under CESMM or the method your tender requires, alongside the building works.
