This has mean that we have had to ensure that all building materials and equipment for CanalView has been ordered well in advance in order not to disrupt workflows and miss deadlines. The team has also ensured an adequate workforce manpower has been maintained on site throughout the previous key months and going forward; such measures are just examples of how Naseej and its professional partners have had to adjust and adapt to current market situations, with the main goal of keeping workflows running as steady as possible and minimizing any negative impacts or risks to the projects.”
