Gulf Business Machines (GBM) has signed a AED 100mn ($27.2mn) contract to provide Information and communication technology (ICT) solutions for one of Dubais largest hospitality projects, the Jewel of the Creek.
Using the latest Cisco Systems technology, including mobility and analytics, the package covers internet, telephony, security, structured cabling, guest room management system, access control & audio video.
GBM will install, test and commission the entire package for the five-building hospitality project in Deira.
The Jewel of the Creek is a AED 4bn project by Roda Hotels, the hospitality wing of the Dubai International Real Estate, which is expected to be ready by September 2017.
This will be GBMs single largest project in GCC countries and also marks the first-ever use of these technologies by the hospitality sector.
