EFS Facilities Services Group was honoured at this event for its outstanding performance in the service sector at the Sheikh Khalifa Excellence Award.
The award was launched by the Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce & Industry (ADCCI) back in 1999 as a blue print, a roadmap and a methodology for continuous improvement aimed at enhancing the competitiveness of the Business Sector in Abu Dhabi and the UAE.
H.E Mohamed Helal Al Mheiri comments about the purpose of the award: “SKEA is not a narrow competitive framework which some companies win and other lose, but on the contrary, SKEA is a complete development approach that helps all participants to adopt the principles of comprehensive quality, excellence and its applications in their businesses.
The real prize which all participants gain, even the winners, is the technical and characterization reports which form the mirror of their real quality and excellence and which contestants can view themselves in it to identify the points of strength and to work on enhancing them – as well as the opportunity of development and improvement – and not the points of weakness – to lay out different plans and programs that fill the gaps. The reports also help in formulating a futuristic vision and mission for companies so all would concentrate on excreting all available capabilities to achieve such visions.”
Tariq Chauhan, Group CEO, EFS Facilities Services Group commented on the organisations win: “Awards are not for the recognition of our accomplishments only, but these help us to farther the impact of our work. These bring added responsibilities on us. We at EFS, feel privileged to receive this coveted honour and will continue to ensure superior service excellence whilst steering innovation in the facilities management industry and the community at large.”
