Technical Approach

The capability and experience Babel has gained in the Middle East provides technical advantages that make our company a low risk contractor option when considering cost control, quality of work, on-schedule delivery, customer satisfaction, and compliance. Babel is a locally based UAE company with strong ties to the resident community and the ability to obtain supplies and additional labor quickly and reliably. Our low mark-ups are the result of this approach: local, reliable and experienced.

Babel’s personnel have in-depth knowledge and experience in excavation, utility installation, military base construction, concrete and asphalt paving, vertical block construction, column and fill block construction, maintenance, construction, and vertical and horizontal concrete works both in local and global regions. Babel’s logistical support and extensive in-country experience contribute to decreased performance risk in addition to compliance within the budget and schedule.

Our approach consists of five major components:

  1. Provide all projects with multi-dimensional contract and logistics support;
  2. Deploy an experienced site assessment team to liaise with on-the-ground teams and clients during the proposal phase to ensure prime contractors, their client’s, and Babel’s goals and objectives are aligned;
  3. Prepare detailed work packages and get multiple firm-fixed price bids from proven subcontractors to lower cost, schedule, and performance risks;
  4. Complete a majority of the work in-house thus allowing for lower pricing and avoiding any potential problems associated with multi-tiered subcontracting; and
  5. Ensure the protection and safety of all personnel and property by careful selection and rigorous oversight of workers.

These critical activities will result in:
  • An accelerated design-build capability;
  • A conceptual work plan (CWP) that is ready for presentation after job order solicitation;
  • A better understanding by subcontractors of a client’s requirements and Babel’s expectations which will ultimately lead to increased confidence in meeting the budget and schedule; and
  • Adequate security and safety oversight maintained on the labor force and subcontractors to ensure the protection the workers, personnel, and property.
