About

As a Senior Quantity Surveyor/Subcontracts at Global Process Systems, I contribute to the successful execution of construction and engineering projects by leveraging expertise in construction estimating, procurement, and subcontracts management. With over 17 years of experience in the EPC, oil & gas, and maritime industries, I specialize in developing and reviewing tenders, preparing contracts, and ensuring alignment with technical specifications and commercial terms. Previously, at Drydocks World, I facilitated procurement strategies, collaborating with suppliers and subcontractors to optimize material and service acquisitions for shipbuilding and repair projects. My goal is to deliver cost-efficient, high-quality solutions while mitigating contractual risks and ensuring compliance with company objectives.
