International construction consultancy firm, Bruce Shaw, has changed its name to Linesight.
Bruce Shaw International has operated in the Middle East for eight years and has regional offices in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia and Bahrain.
The company is working on projects such as the Alef Residence, on Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah Island, King Abdullah University, in Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi International Airport.
“This is an exciting time for the company as we evolve and move purposefully to become a firm more focused on global expansion into markets like the Middle East and North Africa, providing market specific expertise designed to serve the needs of an ever evolving client base,” said Niall Greene, Managing Director, Middle East, Linesight.
“We are – and will continue to be – a business built on the foundations of partnership building, resourcefulness, integrity and a dedicated client focus. However, as we move forward through 2016 we will bring a greater service offering to our current clients in the provision of best value and high quality consultancy and leverage our assets for future clients alike.”
Linesight now operates in over 40 markets worldwide in multiple sectors including data centers, life sciences, commercial, high tech industrial, hospitality, healthcare, education, residential and retail. The firm’s rebrand allows its global assets and projects to be consolidated under a single brand.
In the Middle East, Linesight will continue its cost management consultancy contract for Al Sharq Investment Group’s Alef Residences project – a project that includes a 5-star hotel, a landscaped garden and a 475-metre stretch of beachfront.
Linesight’s work has involved the detailed preparation of all cost estimates throughout each stage of the design process as well as the procurement of all contractors for the site works.
