THE PROJECT Twitter Arabia is a repeat client with the fit out of the existing office carried out in 2018. In 2019, Twitter Arabia leased the adjoining unit with the intention of expanding to include more communal areas. The approximate size of the expansion project was 3,000 sq ft with the overall office space an approx. 6,000 sq ft. The scope consisted of meeting rooms, a conference room, pantry, and an event space for client education and internal training. With renovations to the existing office space, we helped them add another meeting room and a mother’s and/or wellness room. The duration of the project was 12 weeks on site. OUR APPOINTMENT With a strict budget in place, we managed the design, build and furniture requirements for Twitter Arabia. The full scope fit out also included dedicated AV and security contractors, who were flown in from Ireland to carry out the technical requirements. We defined the project scope, prepared the space plan, carried out tender management, and managed the design implementation. Oversight and supervision of installation works was also a large part of our role. Because the expansion was carried out in a live office environment, working while causing minimal disruption to the business’ day-to- day activities was of paramount importance to our client.
THE BENEFIT With the main headquarters for our client based in California, they benefitted greatly from our local knowledge and expertise. As a trusted advisor, we were the base of contact throughout the entire project connecting the Ireland and US-based teams while managing the contractors and providers on site. Our management of the different working teams ensured a seamless delivery despite varying time zones and the lack of local knowledge. We fully immersed ourselves in understanding the stringent internal process of the client and ensured that contractors made submissions in accordance with their systems and way of doing business.
