Our Trainer

Our Trainer has over 40 years of experience in electrical & mechanical systems including maintenance, construction supervision, contracts management, asset and maintenance management, and operational management of installations ranging from power station plants, E&M services in transport infrastructures and specialist building services.

His early years were spent on construction supervision and commissioning activities which provided a solid grounding for later years in design and project development.

In the past 2 decades, he has developed internationally renowned specialist skills on tunnel ventilation and electrical and mechanical services for road & rail tunnels and metro stations.

His extensive experience in road and rail fire life safety systems and E&M services enables him to provide invaluable experience in the review of systems for road tunnel E&M services installations, tunnel fire life safety systems, and tunnel ventilation and smoke control systems.

He has enjoyed managing teams across disciplines, cultures and geographic areas to deliver projects. He is valued to provide innovative approaches and fresh ideas to technical issues in complex projects.

His ability to understand client requirements and provide high-level service resulted in repeat businesses. His attention to risks and commercial aspects was reflected in the profitability of projects under his management.

He is very valuable in project development from the identification of opportunities, deal negotiation to complete delivery.
