H&G wins UAE ministry contract

Dubai, February 22, 2012

The Dubai-based facilities management firm, Hitches & Glitches (H&G) said it has won a contract from the Ministry of Education for the upkeep and maintenance of schools in the Northern Emirates.

Announcing its foray into commercial property and infrastructure sector, H&G said the ministry contract was a significant win and came as an endorsement of its capabilities and expertise in arresting erosion of asset values of properties by proper upkeep and smooth maintenance with the help of skilled workforce and modern technology.

“For us the foray into the commercial property and infrastructure is a natural and diagonal expansion leveraging our acknowledged strength in the FM segment, said Malay Shroff, chief operating officer, H&G.

“Under the terms of the agreement, we are mandated for the upkeep and maintenance of over 100 schools in Umm Al Qwain and Ras Al Khaimah and we have already started activating the project. The contract also means that H&G is expanding its presence from Dubai to other emirates of the UAE,” Shroff said.

One of the largest private sector FM company, H&G has made its mark catering to the up-market residential clusters of New Dubai including Emirates Hills, The Palm, Jumeirah Village, Meadows, Arabian Ranches and Al-Barsha.

H&G deploys sophisticated technology and trained and multi-skilled manpower to service its clients also deploys mobile service centres strategically positioned in the communities it serve so that response time to a client call is accelerated by being in the proximity.

“H&G’s decision to diversify into asset classes other than residential also entails expansion of our operations in terms of additional industry-specific work force and equipment so that we can enhance our reach to various sectors within the commercial and infrastructure sector,” he added.-TradeArabia News Service
