The Client
Dubai, UAE
Dubai Golf is the leisure and entertainment division of Wasl Hospitality, one of the largest developers, property owners and operators in the Middle East. Topgolf is a U.S. golf training academy, a sports leisure and entertainment franchise with over 50 sports and leisure facilities worldwide.
The Project
Topgolf comprises of a 7,500 sqm G+2 arc-shaped building, located next to the European Tour Majlis course, and has over 90 tee-lines, VIP suites, a management office, storage rooms, changing rooms, kitchens, cold rooms, a sports bar with a garden terrace, a restaurant overlooking the live entertainment, conference facilities and private golf suites. The project included a new 750m roadway, landscaping, a 240- space car park. The teeline technology made up of multiple gaming screens, Toptracer cameras, outfield lighting and ball dispensers added a degree of complexity which required close coordination.
The Benefit
With a background in delivering highly technical, complex and challenging projects, We have demonstrated our ability to identify and mitigate risks, while nurturing cohesion within the project team. While the project experienced challenges with procurement (due to the Covid-19 pandemic) and site constraints, these were overcome due to our intervention. Potential delay events were mitigated and managed to limit the client’s exposure to cost and time implications. We gained great knowledge and expertise of Topgolf’s teeline and outfield technology, and operational requirements specified by the USA team. Our ability to help ensure seamless coordination with international stakeholders added significant value. Finally our ability to navigate the approvals process successfully enabled quicker turnaround times while works on site could progress in earnest.
