Partnership to advance digital facilities management across the GCC
Nemetschek Arabia, part of the Nemetschek Group, one of the world’s leading software providers for the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operations (AEC/O) industry, has signed a strategic collaboration agreement with KEO Group, a leading multidisciplinary consulting firm.
The agreement establishes a framework for collaboration aimed at advancing digital facilities management practices and supporting smarter, more efficient built environments across the Gulf region.
As owners, developers and public sector entities across the GCC continue to invest in complex-built assets, the ability to connect design, construction and operational data has become increasingly important to improving performance, reducing lifecycle costs and enabling more informed asset management decisions.
The agreement brings together Nemetschek Arabia’s expertise in digital technologies with KEO Group’s regional experience in facilities management consultancy, operations advisory and FM data strategies, supported by OPTIMA, KEO Group’s Allied Practice specializing in facilities management solutions.
Exploring opportunities
Together, the organizations will explore opportunities to help public and private sector clients optimize asset performance, enhance operational efficiency and accelerate digital transformation initiatives. The collaboration will focus on digital FM data strategies, integrated asset lifecycle solutions and technology enabled approaches that deliver measurable value.
“Together with KEO Group, we see a strong opportunity to connect world-class digital platforms with deep regional FM expertise, enabling customers to make better use of data across the full asset lifecycle,” stated Eng. Muayad Simbawa, Managing Director, Nemetschek Arabia.
“Through this collaboration with Nemetschek Arabia, KEO Group will help clients move beyond traditional facilities management models and adopt more connected, data led approaches that improve performance, support better decision making and create long term value across the asset lifecycle,” concluded Kamal Natour, Managing Director, OPTIMA and General Manager, KEO KSA.
