Description

Landmark project - The "flower of the east" tourism and business center is being developed on a 237 hectare site on Kish Island in the Persian Gulf. It will have a gross floor area of some 1 million mē in the high-quality luxury segment. The project is unique in Iran and is set to achieve outstanding economic significance in the region.

Broad-based competency - Drees & Sommer is providing holistic project management "under one roof". It brings extensive experience to the project in many areas including building construction, infrastructure, interface definition, and profitability analysis of subprojects. The project is also benefiting from the flexibility of employees (from Germany, Dubai and Iran) and the integration of facility management consulting by DS-Plan.

Systematic approach - The complex interrelationship between master planning, feasibility studies, planning criteria and implementation with all the logistical constraints of an island means a huge challenge for project management.
