Helping to shape a luxury island in Abu Dhabi

Our team in the UAE is working with Eagle Hills on the development of Ramhan Island. This is a new waterfront destination, just 20 minutes from central Abu Dhabi. The island will offer high-end villas, a luxury hotel and spa, apartment blocks, a marina, shops, mosques, schools, community centres, and restaurants. It will combine tourism with exclusive living, set against views of the Arabian Gulf.

Bringing the vision to life with cost certainty

Ramhan Island is a major project with a multi-billion dollar budget. We are providing cost management and procurement support throughout.

We were involved from the start. That means we understand the full picture, from the cost of each asset to the whole development. Now, during construction, we continue to track costs closely.

Our team adds value by:

  • Keeping costs under control and driving best value outcomes.
  • Supporting procurement with local market knowledge
  • Helping to manage change and avoid delays
  • Ensuring payments are certified quickly to keep cash flowing

We work closely with the engineer and the project management consultant. Together, we solve problems before they cause delays or cost increases.

Managing risk on a complex site

Large island projects bring challenges. Access is limited. Logistics are harder. Utilities are more complex. At the same time, the regional market is busy and costs are rising.

We help our client stay ahead by:

  • Driving best value through proactive cost planning and optioneering
  • Supporting the procurement process with strong market insights
  • Managing payments and contract changes clearly and fairly

Our experience in the region means we understand what it takes to deliver major projects. We know the local contractors, the risks, and the best ways to manage them.

Creating value for Abu Dhabi and its people

The development includes 1,038 villas, 18 apartments blocks, and a five-star hotel (250 keys), together with all associated marine, infrastructure and public real works. There will also be a wellness centre, schools, mosques, nurseries, beach clubs, and places to eat and relax.

Rahman Island will attract new investment. It will bring more visitors and offer a new place to live for Abu Dhabi’s growing population.

We are proud to work with Eagle Hills to help deliver this high-end coastal community. Our focus on certainty, control and collaboration helps keep the project moving forward with confidence.
