7 Years of Joy, Encouraging & Success

Inspired by the vision of our founders, seemed by the demand of our region, driven by the leaders whose encouragement has played the biggest role in providing support for our manpower, serving UAE’s nation for past 7 years, we are delighted to celebrate this milestone anniversary with our team and clients this October.

CSC’s Achievements in past 7 years

As one of the leading architecture consultancy organisations in UAE, we were striving to provide the most sustainable solutions for the people, the country and the Earth. A numerous number of projects has been done in past 7 years in the favour of our client’s expectations. CSC has been performing tasks from small day to day accomplishments to a huge project in Healthcare, Hospitality, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas, Construction industry, as well as supporting projects in Governmental & Private sector. By accomplishing each & every aspect of the plan, we consider it as an milestone. We focus on details, we strive to provide errorless results, and we believe that that is the only way to be on market all those years. Providing a quality work will keep you on track.

In the first year, CSC has signed and accomplished only a few successful projects, while every year onwards, CSC has to increase the number of regular employees, services to be offered, onshore teams, and equipment to fulfill or requirements. We started with only 3 people, while now our family grew to up to 60, where every person is individually encouraged, supported, and valued, because they are the core of our success.

Taking BIM to New Levels: Increased Profitability for Contractors https://close-system.com/taking-bim-to-new-levels-increased-profitability-for-contractors/ https://close-system.com/taking-bim-to-new-levels-increased-profitability-for-contractors/#respond Sun, 06 Oct 2024 06:23:28 +0000 https://close-system.com/?p=12048

Taking BIM to New Levels: Increased Profitability for Contractors

Increasing Your Project Profitability

Even though the savings in the planning stage are relatively small, an investment in BIM will pay for itself in the short-term due to the high savings made in construction costs. A total of 5 RETURNING FACTORS were identified as the most commonly reported factors that influence BIM ROI. (Source: https://bit.ly/3OnmJ57)

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has some of the most advanced and developed infrastructure in the region, spending billions of pounds on huge projects over the past few decades. Following on from the UK Government’s mandate on the use of BIM for large scale and public sector projects, Dubai were the first Emirate in the Middle East to follow, and now it looks as though Abu Dhabi followed suit started in 2019.

THINGS TO CONSIDER IN CHOOSING YOUR BIM PARTNER

1.Check the BIM company’s experience

With so many companies presenting themselves as leading BIM service providers, it is necessary to check their credentials. It is equally important that the outsourcing company’s project execution methodology is aligned to yours.

2.Reference check: Past and current clients are a good source of references.

Check the facts and raise the question of work quality, and how knowledgeable and how responsive the provider is.

3.Don’t confuse “low hourly rate” with your real cost, it’s not always the best deal.

A legit company will always quote a price commensurate with the effort. Beware when companies offer lower costs because it may also means lack expertise or professional skill required to create BIM models

4.Accessibility is critical: Stay away from undedicated BIM workers

Without a proper work environment and without the latest equipment, software or technology, it may be difficult to work on BIM complex projects.

5.A partner with several BIM resources.

Adopting automation and keeping up to date with the latest technology is ideal to gain a competitive edge in the market, make sure your partner has the resources. 

(Sources: https://bit.ly/3IREZCU)

BIM is far more than a technology, and requires a holistic transformation process. We would be happy to discuss the relevance of these challenges and your BIM strategy with you, and support you in your individual transformation process to ensure the long-term economic success of your company.

We, at Close System provides a leading BIM support service, delivering 3D BIM models, BIM implementation and BIM Execution Plan (BEP) to several named Governmental and Private companies and construction firms across the UAE.

CSC Newsletter – Employee Safety in the workplace https://close-system.com/csc-newsletter-employee-safety-in-the-workplace/ https://close-system.com/csc-newsletter-employee-safety-in-the-workplace/#respond Sun, 06 Oct 2024 05:50:08 +0000 https://close-system.com/?p=12036

HIGHLIGHT SAFETY IN YOUR COMPANY

Employers have a responsibility to ensure the health and safety of employees in the workplace – whichever industry they belong to. 

In the UAE, there is Article 36 of the Federal Decree Law No. 33 of 2021 on the Regulation of Labour Relations in the Private Sector, the ‘UAE Labour Law’ that requires all firms to abide by the provisions contained in Federal Law No.13 of 2020 on Public Health and all resolutions and any other legislations issued for its implementation.

HOW TO MOTIVATE EMPLOYEES TO CREATE A SAFETY CULTURE?

Whether you are working in a typical workplace, construction sites, Oil & Gas, or other chemical and manufacturing industries, everyone is entitled to work in a safe environment where risks are properly controlled.

Under health and safety law, employers are primarily responsible for ensuring your workspace is fit for purpose. They must set the protocols and make sure the workplace complies with standards.

Here’s some tips to motivate your employees to practice s safety culture in your workplaces:

  1. Provide health and safety training for all staff and create awareness that while it is the employer’s responsibility, each employee is also obligated to take care of themselves in the workplace.
  2. Promote participation from employees that a healthier and safer workplace increases job satisfaction, productivity, and business performance.
  3. Display safety instructions in your workplaces. It is always advisable for a company to always remind their employees about health and safety protocols of the workplace

 

UNDERSTANDING WHAT RISK LOOKS LIKE

BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS

CHEMICAL HAZARDS

ERGONOMIC HAZARDS

PHYSICAL HAZARDS

inadequate machine guards, unsafe conditions and unsafe practices.

caused by organisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites.

caused by a solid, liquid, vapor, gas, dust, fume or mist.

Almost all industries highlighted the healthy safety of their employees due to the discovery of the lasting impact of the covid-19 pandemic. It has changed the world as we know it in many ways. The impact of COVID-19 on the AEC industry has already become apparent in several ways, and more ripple effects are likely to unfold as we move into the future.
