See our projectsOur story
A new company with deep roots
KRM is a young company, but its foundations go back two decades of contracting experience in the UAE.
Before founding KRM, Rami Attaallah — a biomedical engineer by training — spent years delivering hospital and clinic projects across the Emirates: operating theatres, pharmacy clean rooms, CSSDs, dialysis units and research clean rooms for government, regulators and private hospital groups. KRM was established to bring that experience under one roof, together with the civil, MEP and workshop capacity a contractor needs to control quality and programme on its own.
Today the company employs more than sixty permanent staff in Abu Dhabi, works for clients such as Asteco, Aldar, DMT and private healthcare groups, and holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification for its quality, environmental and occupational health & safety management systems.

Quality assurance
Nothing is closed before the client has seen it
A project quality plan is submitted within two weeks of award. Every material carries a data sheet and a sample; inspection requests go in 24 hours ahead; mock-ups are signed off for screens, ceilings and joinery; and NCRs, corrective actions and close-out records are kept for the handover dossier.
| Work item | Control point |
|---|---|
| Above-ceiling services | Hold: joint inspection before closing |
| Toilet waterproofing | Hold: 24-hour flood test |
| Water and drainage | Hold: pressure test |
| Fire alarm and sprinklers | Witness: client FLS team |
| ELV integration | Witness: client IT |
Health, safety and environment
More than an obligation, safety is our priority
A full-time HSE officer is assigned to site. Permits to work, pre-construction risk assessments (PCRA), interim life-safety measures (ILSM) and daily inspections are standard; inside live hospitals we add ICRA-based infection control. We apply ADPHC / ADOSH-SF codes of practice, the UAE Fire & Life Safety Code and the DoH EHSMS.
We specify eco-friendly, low-VOC and energy-efficient materials wherever the brief allows, and manage waste under our ISO 14001 environmental management system.
- Permit to work for every activity
- PCRA and ICRA reviewed weekly
- Hospital contractor safety manual
- Full-time HSE officer on site
- Interim life-safety measures (ILSM)
- Training and apprenticeship programmes

Abu Dhabi Vision 2030
Building for the Emirate we work in
As a contractor we contribute to Abu Dhabi's vision in two ways: the facilities we build strengthen the Emirate's healthcare, education and civic infrastructure, and the work itself creates skilled jobs. Our scholarship and apprenticeship programmes train new engineers and craftsmen so that the standard we build to is passed on.
Corporate social responsibility
Going green and embracing nature
We develop plans and designs where nature and infrastructure can coexist: eco-friendly materials, energy-efficient systems and responsible waste handling on every site, supported by an ISO 14001-certified environmental management system.
