Egypt’s construction sector has experienced consistent growth. The improvement follows an increase in government investments in environmentally sustainable, energy-efficient infrastructure, which is driving growth in Egypt’s construction and infrastructure sectors.
Trimble, a construction technology provider, is taking part in the ‘Digital Construction Conference 2022’ in Cairo, Egypt, to raise awareness and encourage better adoption of technology in the Egyptian construction industry, thereby assisting in the productivity increase of these infrastructure projects.
Trimble’s experts will present and lecture on important topics to eminent construction stakeholders, including officials from the government and municipalities, major project owners, contractors, engineers, property developers, and other industry professionals, during the two-day event on May 24-25, 2022, at Royal Maxim Palace Kempinski.
Tareq Masri, Director of Sales and Channel at Trimble Solutions Middle East, will be a featured speaker at the conference’s leadership panel discussion titled ‘Formulating a Sound Digital Roadmap for an Agile and Profitable Construction Business.’
Commenting on the participation Masri said: “We are excited to be part of the event and look forward to sharing knowledge with the industry stakeholders. Egypt is witnessing a massive growth in construction sector and our intent will be to demonstrate, with real examples, how construction technology can empower them to do their jobs effectively and productively. Construction has become an important and competitive business across the region and Trimble is well equipped to aid stakeholders navigate their way to building quality projects, profitably, sustainably and with utmost safety.”
On the second day, Trimble’s expert Hany Ahmed, Business Development Manager at Trimble Solutions, Middle East, will enlighten the participants with his presentation titled ‘Trimble Digitization and Connected Construction = Confidence.’ The presentation will focus on connected construction, highlighting the various tools and possibilities for streamlining construction workflows. Connected Construction bridges the gap between people, processes, and technology, allowing everyone to make better decisions from the start. When problems do arise, you can identify and resolve them more quickly.
Trimble’s participation in the event will allow the company to not only showcase its technologies, but will also allow industry professionals to understand what systems and methodologies work best for different types of projects. Discussions will include new versions of Trimble’s Tekla solution that contribute to sustainable BIM construction practices, advanced MEP solutions for increased efficiency and time savings, and open collaboration through cloud-based tools for transparency and real-time data sharing.
Paul Wallett, Regional Director of Trimble Solutions Middle East and India said: “This event is a great platform for us to showcase and share our knowledge with construction professionals for the development of this sector in the country. Constructible BIM process and construction technology solutions from Trimble has been adopted in key projects, as we can see in some of the major projects – including the Grand Egyptian Museum and Adly Mansour metro station – across Egypt, but a greater outreach is required. Hence, our participation in the event will help stakeholders (architects, structural engineers, MEP designers and contractors amongst others) understand the better use of these technologies and the benefits that they bring. For more than 20 years we have been helping the industry deliver some iconic structures in the region and look forward to further contributing through our industry leading solutions.”
Trimble is a Silver Sponsor of the event and is looking to expand its presence in the region. The solution provider aims to broaden the reach of BIM and construction technology through skill development, the establishment of corporate digital culture, and the compliance of all project teams to standardized processes for optimal construction project delivery.
