BUILD Facilities Management Awards 2024 International construction consultancy DG Jones and Partners has been supporting its clients on their builds for more than 60 years now, ever since its Founder Donald G. Jones set out with a vision to provide cost-effective construction solutions in 1962. Having worked across more than 70 nations worldwide, the team here strives to add measurable value across every stage of a project, acting with the utmost integrity, professionalism, and excellence from inception right through to completion. Best Built Asset Advisors 2024 - Middle East & Client Service Excellence Award 2024 A lot has changed since 1962, with the construction sector being much more specialised, detailed, and sophisticated now than it once was. Sustainability is a critical element of consideration for project managers today, and regulations are vastly different wherever a project is being executed. Despite these changes, a few things have remained steadfast for 62 years and counting, and these have been the core vision and values of DG Jones and Partners, which strives to be impartial, ethical, and professional at every turn. Implementing these values in a changing world, the firm’s services span the entirety of a build’s lifecycle, beginning with a robust feasibility study as the project commences and ceasing only when the asset’s operation ends, or it is disposed. This added value across a project manifests itself in everything from setting reliable budgets and controlling spending to ensuring a project is completed on time. Priding itself on delivering a sustainable, cost-effective operation, the firm undertakes to develop effective returns on the client’s investment. Projects have taken the DG Jones team to the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt, Morrocco, Cyprus, Greece and many other countries worldwide by blending this global knowledge with a local commitment to every area in which they work, employees strive to fully understand local cultures and conditions to exceed all client’s unique needs. Built on the cornerstones of a multicultural capability and a determination to nurture long-term client relationships, DG Jones and Partners’ tailored approach is aided immeasurably by its professionally qualified employees, with multi-disciplinary skills and international experience being long-term residents of their respective countries.

With such a deep understanding of local cultures and customs, it is no surprise that the DG Jones and Partners team have been involved in almost every type of high-profile project available, from international airports and state-of-the-art hospitals to luxury residential developments, government buildings, leisure facilities, and everything in between. Regardless of the nature of a project, this team does everything in its power to demonstrate excellence across its three primary target areas: time, cost, and quality. In a rapidly evolving construction industry that is seeing technological advancements, DG Jones and Partners has become an integrator of such technologies to continue to go above and beyond the changing expectations of clients. Some of the pioneering systems that the firm utilises are Computer Aided Facilities Management (CAFM), BIM design, 4D planning, and even drone survey technology, which combine to create a wealth of exciting possibilities that allow this renowned built asset advisor to continue to remain ahead of the curve, well into its seventh decade of operation.

These areas also comprise the firm’s robust corporate social responsibility policies, which are intertwined with its core values and permeate across every level of the business. From engaging with the local community to implementing strict recycling and energy-saving protocols across its offices, DG Jones and Partners more than gives back.
