Middle East The convention is confirmed first, not assumed.
Gulf fit-out runs to large hospitality and commercial packages on compressed programmes, documented to whichever convention the consultant brought with them. Work here is taken on enquiry and scoped per project.
What Gulf projects expect
- Mixed documentation conventions.
- Design teams on Gulf projects come from Europe, the United Kingdom, North America and the region itself, and the specification frequently reflects wherever the consultant trained. Establishing which convention governs is the first task, not an assumption.
- Metric throughout,
- in nearly all cases.
- Large packages on short programmes.
- Hospitality and commercial fit-out at scale, with opening dates that were committed before the joinery was designed.
- Specified products that may not be locally available.
- Substitution questions arise more often here than in established markets, and they need requesting rather than drawing.
How this works
Taken on enquiry. Scope, convention and documentation format are agreed per project.
The process does not change. Work is drawn in your platform to your conventions, checked by someone other than the detailer who produced it, and reviewed by a named senior person before it reaches you, with a committed calendar date agreed at quoting.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have an office in the Gulf?
No. Our market offices are in Toronto, New Jersey and London. Gulf work is taken on enquiry and scoped per project.
Which documentation convention do you work to?
Whichever your specification names. Gulf projects carry consultants from several markets, so establishing the governing convention is the first thing done rather than assumed.
Do you work in metric?
Yes, on Gulf projects, which is nearly always the convention in use.
Can you handle a large fit-out package on a short programme?
Scope and turnaround are agreed per package, with a committed calendar date at quoting. Where a date is not achievable at the scope defined, that is said before the work starts.

Scope follows from that.
- Governing documentation convention established first, not assumed
- Committed calendar date agreed at quoting
- Named senior reviewer, wherever the work is produced
- One named contact, not a general queue
