10. Future Vision & Mission
• Project Management & Planning
• Building Renovation Process
• Building Renovation Challenges
• Aspirations & Suggestions
• My Plan to Manage Maintenance Division
12. Building Renovation Process
• Currently @ Education field (ADVETI), we are handing over many schools from
ADEC, and most of these schools have been renovated to meet ADVETI standards
for vocational & Training programs, Upgrading HVAC system, Fire Alarm & fighting
system with AD code of building safety, Use LED lighting for reducing power
consumption & heat dissipation, Mix between modern design and classic in fit out
and decoration concept.
• Carried out renovation work at Dubai Hospital which was built on 1980 for patients
wards and upgrade main reception, HVAC cooling system & replace pneumatic
control system with DDC control, replaced SMDBs & DBs as per DEWA regulations.
• Manage MEP renovation works at Emirates center (ECSSR) for developing Ball
Room & function room with State – of Art building fit out and decoration.
13. Building Renovation Challenges
• Design Challenges: renovation design is normally
restricted with actual situation and previous main civil
construction which force designer with many
considerations that need deep alteration and sometimes
became costly.
• Operational Challenges: renovation tasks (WBS) need
complicated planning through several stages in order to
maintain smooth running for the daily business of the firm
& this might create inconvenience atmosphere for both
staff & visitors/Guests.
14. Aspirations & Suggestions
• Focusing on Advance Management for applying best practices
in Effective maintenance management & Strategic planning,
resource utilization, budget control, Logistics & supply chain,
Quality & HSE standards.
• My future plan in using Technology for supporting maintenance
& Facilities Division (BMS system & office automation
equipment), Green building concept & Power Save concept.
Furthermore, I think that KUSTAR business is proper place for
me, where I can transfer my experience for the benefit of campus
& suggest Automation of most of office equipment system &
Archiving, Data Center Development, Electronic Library,
Advanced security monitoring Camera & Access control.
