BEEAH launches innovative facilities management division to accelerate net-zero ambitions in the Middle East

BEEAH, a leading name when it comes to sustainability and innovation in the Middle East, has recently expanded its lineup by launching a dedicated facilities management division. This new branch aims to weave its extensive environmental expertise into the fabric of the built environment. Basically, these offerings are designed to support sustainable, net-zero ready operations across various sectors—be it commercial, residential, industrial, or institutional—and showcase a pretty forward-thinking approach to facilities management in the region.

The announcement came from Fahad Shehail, who’s the CEO of Environment at BEEAH. His statement positioned this new services arm as a direct response to shifting environmental priorities and the climate challenges that are increasingly affecting the region. At the launch event, Shehail highlighted that their services draw on BEEAH’s proven track record in large-scale waste management, community infrastructure optimization, and advanced recycling technologies—stuff that really helps deliver climate-smart, resilient solutions. “Our facilities management services are pretty unique when it comes to tackling the region’s biggest challenges, which — well, at least to me — are calling for resilient, climate-smart solutions,” he emphasized. He also pointed out how the company’s combining operational excellence with innovation to make a positive difference.

The services themselves are quite flexible and comprehensive, letting clients customize solutions based on their needs. The portfolio breaks down into five main categories: hard services, soft services, security, computer-aided facilities management (or CAFM), helpdesk, and environmental management. This all-encompassing approach means partners can benefit from integrated offerings that help manage assets throughout their lifecycle sustainably, keep operations running smoothly, and support environmental stewardship.

Let’s talk about the hard services first—these focus on planned preventative maintenance and ensuring systems like HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning), MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing), and critical safety infrastructure stay reliable. The goal here? Extending asset lifespans and reducing disruptions—in other words, helping to lower resource use and support those net-zero targets through smarter system management.

On the soft services side, they include eco-friendly cleaning and landscaping, carried out with environmentally friendly methods and gear. Plus, there’s a fleet of low-emission city-cleaning vehicles. Basically, it’s all about keeping facilities hygienic and attractive while still being mindful of the environment—a critical factor especially now, where urban areas are increasingly climate-conscious.

Security services incorporate cutting-edge surveillance tech like smart sensors, CCTV, and traffic management systems—enhancing safety through real-time alerts and data-driven insights. BEEAH’s extensive experience in managing their own security infrastructure really shines here, promising to safeguard premises with technology that’s ready for the future, which also helps improve response times and transparency.

And the real game-changer here is their integrated CAFM and helpdesk platform, which uses AI, IoT, and cloud tech. This setup allows for real-time monitoring of performance, streamlining workflows, and providing round-the-clock customer support. It’s built on BEEAH’s long-standing experience running a 24/7 municipal waste collection and city cleaning hotline. Digitizing facilities management like this is, I think, a smart move because it enables decision-makers to use data more effectively—making operations more sustainable overall.

Their environmental management services stand apart because they lean heavily on BEEAH’s decades of experience in waste management and recycling. This includes oversight of waste disposal, community recycling projects, and pest control—aiming to keep our built environments clean and circular. Rafael Lopez, CEO of Tandeef by BEEAH—which handles waste collection and city cleaning—pointed out that they’ve been leading these services for over 15 years across the UAE, and more recently, in Saudi Arabia and Egypt. He added, “With the addition of facilities management, we’re helping partners move toward net zero by digitizing and future-proofing their facilities with emerging technologies already in motion in our operations.”

The new division also emphasizes digital transformation—adding tools for measuring carbon footprints and harnessing advanced data analytics. These help facility managers and decision-makers minimize waste, optimize water and energy use, and align with both global sustainability guidelines and regional climate goals.

BEEAH has already shown it’s serious about these services through launch events and industry roadshows, where they’ve brought together stakeholders to explore how to collaborate toward zero-emissions futures. This approach clearly demonstrates how environmental responsibility is now being integrated directly into the design and management of the built environment—responding to urgent climate needs with practical, scalable solutions for sectors big and small.

By tapping into AI, IoT, cloud infrastructure, and their deep environmental expertise, BEEAH’s facilities management services are paving the way for smarter, more circular urban ecosystems. These initiatives are especially timely as governments across the UAE and the wider Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region ramp up efforts around sustainability, clean energy, and climate resilience. The new division aligns nicely with the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 strategic vision and its broader international commitments to sustainability.

In a nutshell, BEEAH’s launch of these climate-smart facilities management services marks an important step in linking operational management with environmental responsibility. Offering a modular, tech-enabled, sustainability-focused portfolio, they’re setting new standards in how built environments are maintained—more intelligently, more sustainably. It’s, you might say, a big move towards smarter, more sustainable cities and communities that aim for that net-zero future.
