On the record
How we conduct ourselves
The commitments a client, a consultant or a procurement office can hold us to — published rather than produced on request.
01
Health & safety
No programme, no drawing and no client deadline outranks the safety of the people on site. The group works to UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 and the municipality codes governing each emirate we build in, and treats compliance as the floor rather than the aim.
Every site has a named person accountable for safety, reachable by the client.
Method statements and risk assessments precede work on site, not follow it.
Incidents are recorded and reported to the client whether or not they caused harm.
Subcontractors work to this statement as a condition of engagement.
Induction is required of every worker before first entry, in a language they read.
02
Quality assurance
Quality is checked by someone whose job is not to finish quickly. Work is inspected at defined stages, and a stage does not close because it is late.
Independent inspection at each stage gate, held by quality, not by programme.
Materials verified against specification on delivery, not on invoice.
Snags recorded on a single list the client can see, closed with evidence.
Defects arising after handover are ours to correct, without argument about cause.
03
Environment & sustainability
A house that lasts is the most material contribution we can make. Beyond that, the group manages what it consumes and what it discards, and reports it honestly rather than favourably.
Waste segregated and diverted from landfill where a licensed route exists.
Timber sourced from suppliers who can evidence legal harvest.
Water and power on site metered, monitored and reduced where practicable.
Specification advice given on thermal performance and running cost, unprompted.
04
Business conduct
The group competes on work, not on inducement. This statement applies to everyone acting in DMDC’s name, including subcontractors and agents.
No facilitation payment, gift or hospitality offered or accepted to influence a decision.
Conflicts of interest declared in writing before engagement.
Wages are paid in full and on time through the Wages Protection System.
Concerns may be raised directly with the founder without passing through a line manager.
