Abu Dhabi · UAE
GPR coordinates the Abu Dhabi authority approval path end-to-end — DMT classification, TAMM permits, Civil Defence (ADCD) shop drawings and the Preventive Safety Certificate, and TAQA / ADDC utility clearances — so the build closes cleanly and the handover package is ready on programme.
Each authority gate has its own submission flow and its own paperwork. GPR owns the path so the build doesn't stall on documentation.
Contractor classification with the Department of Municipalities and Transport. GPR holds the Fifth Category classification covering construction and MEP scope at the appropriate project tier.
Building permit application, MePS submissions, and supporting documentation through the TAMM portal — including drawings, consultant approvals, and BOQ alignment.
Shop drawings, riser diagrams, fire-strategy compliance, witness-test scheduling, and follow-up to the No Objection Certificate (NOC) for the handover package.
The Preventive Safety Certificate confirms the building meets ADCD life-safety requirements at handover. GPR prepares the as-built drawings and supporting test records for the certificate.
Permanent electrical connection, water and drainage, and metering coordination with TAQA or ADDC — load schedule preparation, submission, and follow-up to permanent supply.
The fastest way to push a UAE project off programme is to treat authority submissions as a paperwork afterthought. The drawings, the consultant comments, the witness tests, the meter coordination — each authority has its own queue and its own queries.
GPR runs the approval stack as part of the project programme, not as an admin add-on. The submission calendar runs alongside the construction schedule from the start.
Any new build, major renovation, or change of use that affects fire-strategy, smoke control, evacuation, or life-safety systems requires ADCD approval. This includes fire alarm, sprinkler, hydrant, fire pump, and smoke-control packages. GPR handles the shop drawings, the submission, the queries, and the Preventive Safety Certificate.
DMT (Department of Municipalities and Transport) classifies contractors and approves the build itself — civil, structural, and MEP. Civil Defence (ADCD) approves the fire-protection and life-safety scope specifically — system designs, witness tests, and the NOC. Both run in parallel and both close before handover.
Utility clearances cover the permanent electrical connection, water and drainage, and any required metering or load coordination with TAQA (Abu Dhabi National Energy Company) or ADDC (Abu Dhabi Distribution Company). GPR prepares the load schedule, submits the application, and follows up to the permanent supply and meter activation.
