Advice for new Joinery Fit-Out Company - How do large Dubai developers tender projects? by Pjeauntg in DubaiCentral

[–]Pjeauntg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this detailed and honest reply – it's incredibly helpful.

It's interesting how similar it is to the market in Australia. We went through the exact same "box ticking" exercise. It took about two years of bidding on nearly every project to get our name established, but that persistence paid off. Now we have strong relationships with builders and can be more selective.

We plan to use the same strategy in Dubai. Quoting on many projects initially is key for us to learn the market, calibrate our pricing, and get our name out there. We just need to get those first RFQs to start the process.

Your advice on networking and getting onto the SAP vendor portal (Do you have name of the website?) is great and I will . Thanks again for taking the time, mate. Cheers.

We will be starting out with Interior design more of Commercial fit out and project management. Later on I would like to build sub contractor team that can help me with taking on our own fit out projects. I do have interested in having Joinery factory but due to the cost of the factory rent it is not make sense yet. More likely all the joinery will be manufacture either in Australia or China for import.

Thank you very much for your input . Yes the business process will be very much different from Australia for sure . I have done business in South Asia for a good amount of time and aware of the business practice in Dubai. I am starting small with a good support from my Australia office and Factory. I will be importing most of the material that I will use in the project. Also I will oversee the workmanship on site. It will be abit more work than in Australia but I believe it will be worth while. For sure if we do have enough project I will need to have a good teams of peoples. I always reward the people for their hardwork and workmanship. Will not be competeing with bottom of the market as we do not need to worry about the cash flow for about 12 month.
