- Advise on quality control benchmarks to ensure consistency and reduce material wastage.
• Costing & Pricing Methodology
- Develop a transparent and dynamic Costing Model that accounts for raw materials, hardware, direct labor, factory overheads, and logistics.
- Establish a Pricing Strategy that ensures competitiveness in the Dubai/UAE market while protecting target profit margins.
- Create a standardized estimation template for the sales team to ensure rapid, accurate quoting for complex projects.
Required Qualifications & Experience
