Villamar at the Harbour – The Kingdom of Bahrain
Aconex has been selected by Gulf Holding Company to provide its online information management solution to the $650 million Villamar at the Harbour development at the Bahrain Financial Harbor.
Villamar at the Harbour is being built on an island in the heart of the business district of Manama, the capital of Bahrain. It will be one of the region’s most sophisticated developments and the first luxury residential complex of its kind to be built in the Bahrain Financial Harbour. The development will be located on a prime 32,000 square meter waterfront site and will comprise apartments, exclusive villas and penthouses. The development also includes a health club & spa, swimming pools and a boardwalk which will host cafes, restaurants and other leisure facilities. The project is scheduled for completion in 2010. Villamar at the Harbour was recently awarded the ‘Best Real Estate Project of the Year 2008’ at the Arabian Business Awards.
“Aconex is ideal for the collaborative environment of the construction industry. We have consultants in the UK and Dubai so using Aconex will improve communication between parties. We handle a huge amount of documentation and the system will allow us to store all our data in one place where it is easily accessible – whenever anyone asks for drawings we will be able to issue them straight away. The system will keep an accurate record of documentation throughout the project which will be highly beneficial in the long run.” – Steve Flanagan, Senior Project Manager at Gulf Holding Company.
