The 3SixtyConsult (now PMKConsult) team were well suited to carry out our working requirements and project completion was due to their unwavering efforts on our behalf.”

Sky News Arabia, Legal Director “Right from the outset, we were wary about undertaking a complex technical build of a facility in a region of the world that was outside of our comfort zone. 3SixtyConsult have an in-depth understanding of how a broadcast facility such as ours needs to be constructed, and ensure that it is capable of meeting our ongoing, 24/7 operational requirements.”

Director – General Services, EDGE Group “The level of professionalism and commitment by the 3SixtyConsult (now PMKConsult) team was second to none. We were really pleased with their seamless handling of the project, attentiveness to the key stakeholders, and management of the entire working team. I would have no reservation in recommending this project management consultancy to anyone who pursues this service for their own project.”

Chief Executive Officer – Healthcare Platform, VP of Operations, Consultant Physician Abu Dhabi Capital Group “I would like to take this opportunity and express my deepest gratitude and thanks for the leadership and style of bringing “calm to a storm”. The team’s presence always reminds me why we selected 3SixtyConsult (now PMKConsult) for the project. You have my full commitment to do whatever it takes to make sure your team succeeds because it’s a success for us all. We hope that during these critical months, 3SixtyConsult (now PMKConsult) will be seen more often and involved to a greater extend. You are a unifying figure with tremendous amount of expertise which brings great comfort to us as clients and as an operator.”

Head of Projects, KOMATSU Middle East “I have been extremely pleased with the performance of 3Sixty (now PMKConsult). The professionalism, technical ability, personal skills, supreme confidence and above all sheer dedication held the team together. We at Komatsu have no doubt that without 3Sixty’s (now PMKConsult) professional project management, we would never have been able to complete this new facility in a world class manner and in line with Komatsu’s highest standards, on time, and on budget.”

Vice President, Planning and Project Management - DP World “DP World is delighted by your project management services quality and fast track delivery you have performed.
