About Ahmed Mobammed:

I am a PMP-certified structural engineering specialist with 15 years of experience managing complicated construction projects from inception to completion, including creating technical requirements and site inspections, monitoring progress, and delivering finished projects to satisfied clients. As a qualified Professional Engineer, I provide project-specific designs, inspection plans, and associated processes to ensure the integrity of structural engineering.

I advocate for the widespread use of project management techniques on all assignments, helping to meet key performance indicators and deadlines while working in tandem with the civil, mechanical, electrical, and architectural teams. I use my engineering skills to plan and study new and existing buildings, particularly those that need seismic retrofits or restoration work. I lead the Engineering Team in defining the Project Scope, Budget, Design Approach, and Applicable Constraints and driving Project Planning, Scheduling, and Successful Completion within the Agreed Upon Budget, Scope, and Time-frames.

As a Structural Design Manager, I led the development of technological solutions that have doubled the effectiveness of the scope validation process by increasing stakeholder participation. During the preliminary permit application phase, I coordinate communications with the project's architects, other design consultants, and local regulatory bodies for the initial brainstorming, preliminary layouts, and client approval. As a structural designer, I develop 2D and 3D construction drawings, design briefs, and requirements. I am responsible for administering engineering assistance to guarantee that construction work progress continuously by analyzing look-ahead schedules and speeding up weekly engineering deliverables and contractor submittals.
