Every project has its own unique challenges, including those related to technical, time and budgetary aspects. For cost and time management projects, we believe that the most impactful solutions are data-inspired. At Moharram &amp; Associates, we adopt a dynamic approach enabling us to identify major and minor areas of optimization.

We have a sophisticated set of controls we use to monitor the project's budget and timeframe. Hence, producing detailed phasing plans that ensure resources are appropriately managed and design changes are kept to a minimum.&nbsp;&nbsp;

We ensure that our delivery processes are always proprietary and tailored to satisfy the specific requirements of each project. We achieve this by reviewing and controlling costs at all stages, from planning to design and through to the construction process and ultimately delivery. We also account for the implementation of design requirements that would impact cost-savings during the operational phase, according to the environmental and impact assessments, in addition to facility management and operational efficiency requirements.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Cost & Time Management

In a testament to our multidisciplinary team of engineers and other specialists, we evaluate various perspectives when designing project elements—from concept through to detailed design, schematic and ultimately, Issue for Construction.&nbsp;

By studying local and international industry trends, we design projects that are compatible with existing industry needs. Moreover, we refer to digital technologies to fine-tune our approach and transcend conventional barriers to develop current and future-ready designs. 

Building Design

We believe that façade design is key to conveying the meaning of a building's intent. As such, we invest considerable resources in ensuring that our façade engineers align with all stakeholders and other engineering disciplines.&nbsp; &nbsp;

facade-engineering.jpg

Our façade engineering services begin with the concept design phase and extend to operational use. We start by identifying the strategic objectives of a building and mapping out the main challenges of a project to develop the desired functional requirements.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Our façade designs are developed in close adherence to local and international guidelines. At this stage we analyse the impact of various aspects of the façade's designs on surrounding environmental parameters. Our Façade Engineering services include:

Façade Engineering

Parametric designs use algorithms rather than direct manipulation to produce innovative designs. By linking mathematical parameters and rules, a relationship is established between an object's design and its purpose.

parametric-design.jpg

Our parametric design process uses a computer-based approach that treats the geometric properties of the design as variables, generating a model that’s conceived as a network of relations or dependencies. We achieve this by empowering our experts to use advanced software and digital tools that unlock creative, complex and constructible designs.&nbsp;

Parametric Design

New technologies have fundamentally changed the way we communicate meaning and purpose. They’ve become an integral part of the design and marketing processes for our clients; with proper applications, creative technologies can help better articulate the stakeholders’ vision of major projects, ultimately streamlining the decision-making process at early stages of a project.&nbsp;&nbsp;

creative-technology-visualizations.jpg

These technologies break down complex ideas into simple messages—which, in turn, enhances our understanding of a project during delivery and adds a new visual channel for conveying intended messages to various stakeholders.

Whenever designing a project, we always refer to our teams' experiences to benchmark against previous deliveries and cases. Equipped with powerful technologies and visualised representations, our experts can easily assess key design elements and capitalise their impact on the overall project delivery and end-users’ experience.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Creative Technology & Visualizations

We believe that collaboration across multidisciplinary teams is essential for achieving optimal investment and financial management decisions. Our partner shares this belief, and together, we offer holistic PPP advisory services: we develop and operate infrastructure projects in close collaboration with all public and private sector stakeholders.

infrastructure-ppp-advisory.jpg

Our involvement starts as early as the concept stage, in which we carefully map the long-term strategic objectives of a project within its environmental, technical and financial contexts. We develop economic, commercial, financial and management cases along with a transitional strategy for the long-term feasibility of the project.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Our Infrastructure and PPP advisory services focus on the following objectives:

The adoption of Building Information Modelling (BIM) helps us achieve a fully coordinated design along with tangible cost and time savings throughout the project’s lifecycle.&nbsp;

building-information-modelling.jpg

Our multidisciplinary team has a track record of successfully delivering projects and generating optimal outcomes using BIM, with experience in projects across a wide array of sectors and geographies. To realise optimal benefits, we ensure that the adoption of BIM is seamlessly integrated amongst all project disciplines, from the concept design stage and develops as the project progresses.

Building Information Modelling

To effectively realise a project's vision, it’s critical to have an effective and robust programme and project management methodology. Well-managed projects are necessary for a project to stand out and reflect various strategic objectives, be it cost reduction, timely delivery, efficient monitoring of assets or mitigation of operational risks.&nbsp;&nbsp;

We understand the importance of managing the exchange of information amongst all stakeholders. Additionally, we aspire to have digitally enabled tools in place to ensure real-time coordination is adequately carried out across various stages of the project.&nbsp;
