anybody work in the construction industry?

[ifu95702]

Hi all,

I'm wondering if somebody can help me.

I'm doing some research on the construction market in Dubai and desperately trying to find someone who works for the procurement department of one of the big contractors like Laing O Rourke, Carrillion, Al Naboodah, Habtoors, Murray & Roberts etc.

I've got a few questions I'm hoping they can answer for me.

Could anybody help point me in the right direction?

thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
I saw your wife (?) is also asking the question on "another site"

Hopefully someone will be able to help you with your enquiry.
i think there are a few on the board (s) who are in the industry (like us), but not sure if they work for the above mentioned companies.

Good luck

I work for ETA Ascon, the M&E Division. Not directly in procurement, but certainly have an input in purchasing, so I possibly may be able to give some help

Hi Ogri,

I tried to send you a private message in response to your post but I'm not sure if you got it. My wife tells me I need to have made a certain number of posts before I can send PM's.

Did you receive it?

thanks
Chris
