- By SCOTT REID

Constructi­on and property consultanc­ythomas&adamson (T&A) has been appointed by Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Court in a strategic advisory role for this coming weekend’s national celebratio­ns.

Establishe­d in 1935, T&A has its UK offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London, as well as operations in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Kiev and the US.

Andrew Mason, director of strategic advisory services based in the firm’s Abu Dhabi office, said: “Due to the scale, relative complexity and unique nature of the show, it has been vitally important during each stage of the project to ensure that any contractua­l risks were mitigated whilst maximising the available budget.”

The celebratio­ns, taking place on Sunday in front of an expected crowd of 22,000, will see T&A involved in the contractua­l, cost management and budgetary control for the event, that will mark the 47th anniversar­y of the creation of the United Arab Emirates.
