UAE-based facilities management company, Farnek, has been awarded a one-year FM contract for the Al Rabiah development in Khalifa City A, managed by First Gulf Properties and consisting of 62 three-, four-, and five-bedroom villas.
The contract, which starts immediately, will utilise Farneks specialised support services covering all mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) requirements, and will include general cleaning, waste management, pest control, management of the Defects Liability Period (DLP), and swimming pool cleaning. A dedicated team of Farnek employees will also be on site to provide lifeguard services, gym instruction, concierge duties, and other soft FM services.
Markus Oberlin, CEO, Farnek, said: Rental rates for a five-bedroom villa start from AED230,000 per annum denoting a certain element of exclusivity which is sure to be popular with expat families. We anticipate this community will be extremely popular with senior executives and their families thanks to the combination of the safe and clean environment and the extensive range of modern facilities on offer.
Our reputation has been built on our commitment and ability to deliver quality services and expertise in both core FM services as well as energy saving and waste management, something community managers and residents alike are demanding alongside more traditional MEP services.
The compound encompasses 62 residential villa units and will include an outdoor swimming pool, a fitness centre, and a tennis court.
Other notable real estate contract wins in Abu Dhabi include the FM and MEP services for 385 villas and staff accommodation for Al Forsan Real Estate; Abu Dhabi General Services Companys Musanda project; First Gulf Properties Al Zeina development and the Nalaya compound in Reem Island; the East and West Tower projects by Al Saqr Properties; and Al Bateen by Aldar Properties.
