ALEC
ALEC Engineering and Contracting LLC (ALEC), part of the Investment Corporation of Dubai (ICD), is a large construction company with related businesses operating in the Gulf Cooperation Council, with a strong presence in Africa. ALEC has consistently evolved and grown over the last 20 years to become a trusted partner for the execution of complex and iconic construction projects. The company builds and provides construction solutions to exceed their clients’ expectations for quality, safety, functionality, and aesthetics.
Before
- Outdated digital support of processes (many manual steps)
- Siloed organization, leading to lack of alignment
- The most significant challenge ALEC faced on their journey was “people’s resistance to change,” which included overcoming the “this is how we’ve always done it” mindset that led to slow and low user adoption
- Other challenges faced included:
- Maturity level of stakeholders
- Low margins
- A large requirement to re-skill and upskill ALEC’s workforce
After
- All ExO Initiatives Approved and Funded
- Internal Alignment
- Reinvent the Company through Innovation
- Digitize all processes, and ensure the core runs the BIM (Building Information Modeling) software
- Ability to influence the development of new projects as soon as possible, through reorganization of the value chain

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who made it possible for me to join such a fabulous, informative, innovative, transformative, crazy and fun journey. It has hands down been the best form of learning I have ever been a part of and I hope I get an opportunity to do more of things like this in the future.“
TONY SALDANHA
“If you are not in the business of doing Sprints and experimenting, then you’re halfway to being disrupted already. Only 10% of the challenge is the underlying ideas. 90% of the challenge is bringing the company along…Salim and his team were the solution to unfreezing it.”
