Eng. Husni Abu Ghaida Proposes the Establishment of Jordanian Reconstruction Commission
Mostaqbal Participated In the First Engineering Consultancy Conference Towards a Quantum Leap.
Our Chairman Husni Abu Ghaida, presented a paper entitled, “Horizons and Marketing Strategies for Export Engineering Consultancy Works”, which expresses the tough conditions experienced by the engineering and consulting firms in the current economic situation in Jordan and the region, in addition to the challenges facing them in their attempts to market their consulting services out of Jordan without any official umbrella to support them, unlike many countries that support their engineering companies operating abroad and are aware of the difficulties facing these companies to know the nature of the external markets and their ability or inability to compete with many regional or international competitive companies.
Engineer Abu Ghaida suggested many ideas and proposals that should be available to open the horizons and build marketing strategies for exporting engineering consultancy work, most significantly the establishment of the Jordan Reconstruction authority. Its main Goal is to Direct and unify the efforts of the Jordanian economic sectors concerned in the reconstruction projects in the region by:
- Gathering the necessary information on reconstruction projects, donors and funders
- Opening a dialogue with international donors and sponsors of the reconstruction process
- Creating opportunities for the Jordanian economic sectors
- Distinguishing the Jordanian economic sectors through coalitions and groupings
- Providing the necessary government cover to support the economic sectors concerned and to negotiate a share in reconstruction projects in different countries
The proposal is based on a governmental partnership with construction, commercial, industrial and service union sectors that have a role in the expected reconstruction work in neighboring countries.
In addition to our chairman’s presentation, also our Project Management Unit Manager, Fadwa Abu Ghaida, presented a working paper entitled “Alliances between companies and engineering offices to form an expertise hub“. She addressed the importance of these coalitions and their role in enhancing the competitiveness of the sector to large regional and international companies, which account for approximately 80% of the consultancy work in the region.
