Project Overview: YWCA Construction project is a significant endeavour aimed at constructing a modern, energy-efficient warehouse building to accommodate GTL logistic operations. This project represents a strategic investment in GTL infrastructure to support future growth and enhance Logistics environment.

Project Goals and Objectives:

• To construct a warehouse building with a total floor area of 160,000 square feet.
• To ensure compliance with all local building codes and regulations.
• To complete construction within 12 months from the project kickoff.
• To complete deck area of 40,000 square feet.
• To provide a safe and comfortable working environment for our employees.

Scope and Deliverables: The project scope includes site preparation, foundation construction, fabrication of steels, erection of structures, installation of roofing and gutters, installation of cladding, concreting of the floor to a standard, landscaping, and the installation of energy-efficient systems (HVAC, lighting, etc.). Deliverables will include a fully constructed and completed warehouse building, all necessary permits and approvals.
