SUMMARY CURRICULUM VITAE
OSAMA KHALED AL-KHAWALDEH
CIVIL ENGINEERING
PROJECT / CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT
Preface
Over 28 years of my overall 34 years career life, my professional experience and acquired know-how were focused on dealing with Management Techniques relating to production planning and cost control of projects. The inevitable variability in construction projects needs to be controlled by planning and setting targets, choosing methods to achieve such plans and targets, monitoring progress, and taking corrective actions when necessary. This continual monitoring is ultimately the only way to cope with uncertainty and variability. I learned throughout my career that Management is the function, which involves getting things done through other people, with the practical implication being contingent upon each individual business. My relevant experience in planning consultancy and construction management could be best employed to assist the Management to attain an improved performance through sound practical application of project management/planning technology. The services provided are linked to the construction sector and related industries.
Through my diversified expertise, I have been contributing in providing top grade
management services assuring TIME, COST and QUALITY objectives. The process of
realizing any project requires certain management techniques, procedures and tools to
be applied to the various stages of the project from INCEPTION to OPERATION. Regardless of the contractual approach to the project, whether traditional, design and build,
cost-plus, construction management, etc., it is always the CONTROL of the project
parameters (time, cost and quality), which is the essence of any management effort. Deriving from my long experience in this field, I have been using developed procedures and techniques in project and construction management for numerous types of projects, various
types of contractual approaches and differing client requirements. The management
techniques, procedures and tools are best selected to suit the case in hand. The aim is always to control project time, cost and quality. The pool of management procedures and tools used in the provision of services to clients ranges from planning to full project and construction management. This spectrum of services entails varying degrees of contractual/administrative/technical input, backup and expertise, as well as monitoring and control input as needed and required for the case in hand.

PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE
(1/6/2009-to date) - 6.30 years
Resident Construction Manager Allied Planning & Enginering Corporation (APEC) - Jordan
Munya Tourism Project – Dibbeen
Touristic Resort comprising boutique hotel and luxurious residential villas located inside the natural reserve forest @ Dibbeen (JD 50 Millions inclusive of land cost) Job Duties: See annex # 1 at the end of this CV
The project is comprised of the following main components:
Hotel, including 30 Guestrooms (Suites), Pool, Café and Spa.
24 Residential Villas.
BOH Buildings & MEP Infrastructure & Site Pathways.
All buildings consist of only one ground floor along with basement floors at very limited locations
where topography allows and only for plants and services purpose and use.
Total site area: 250,000 m2
Total Floor Area: (24,742 m2 not exceeding 10% of land plot area)
Phase (1): 14,648 m2 includes 6 Villas & Hotel
Phase (2): 10,094 m2 includes 18 Villas
Munya Tourism Project is considered the first tourism development project of its kind in the
northern region of Jordan. Over the past year, several efforts have gone underway to alter the Master
Plan in response to the environmental concerns of different non-governmental organizations (NGO's),
and other stakeholders in order to reach to a more environmentally sustainable development.
The conceptual master plan of the project (presented in 2006) has undergone several alterations that
took place over a period of almost two years. Those modifications were needed to meet the concerns of
the Jordanian public as well as to fulfill the strict requirements and standards of the Operator.
The new master plan presented in Sep. 2008 confirmed the development of the project in the same area
selected for the previous master plan, located in the northern part of the Social Security Corporation
land. Both national and international experts have participated in developing the conceptual ideas,
principles, guidelines and design criteria of the project.
The master plan has been prepared by a foreign Architectural/Interior design firm (Kerryhill
Architects - Singapore) with the support of a local architect for coordination purposes (Khammash
Architects). Information related to the development of the infrastructure and utility services has been
compiled and addressed in a conceptual study conducted by a number of local designers and
consultants (DARB - Structural, MEDA - MEP & EMS - LEED Consultant).
The resort is characterized by its beautiful natural location, outstanding facilities, exceptional services
and a small number of rooms to ensure providing exclusivity and privacy to its guests.
Osama CV page 4/26
However, the project main components have been modified as follows:
Hotel, including 30 Guestrooms, Pool and Spa.
24 Residential Villas.
BOH Buildings & Infrastructure.
The new master plan maintained the tourist-residential concept as well as an environmental approach
for the project design, with the objective of obtaining green certification in the future.
ECO Consult conducted an Environmental Impact Study that aimed to objectively assess the
potential environmental and social impacts associated with this development, as well as proposing
mitigation/monitoring measures for impacts remedy and design of an Environmental Management Plan
to ensure that the mitigation and monitoring measures are being implemented properly. The resulted
study was submitted in October 2008.
Characterized by its numerous sustainable design elements and living amenities, "Munya" will be a
250,000 m2 resort nestled in the Dibbeen Forest encompassing an eco-friendly boutique (7 star) hotel
building with 30 guest suites, 24 residential 3-bedroom villas, outdoor swimming pool with café,
a world class Spa, back of house services/facilities and an abundance of enjoyable outdoor
activities.
The entire project is built in an eco-friendly manner that minimizes any disruption of the local habitat.
It is designed to complement nature and will be the first project to host world renowned standards in
the north. It will largely contribute to developing local communities in the North in terms of providing
new economic opportunities. It will also ensure the protection of the environment, woods, plant cover
and the overall eco-system of the forest. This project will add to the number of tourism destinations in
Jordan, position Dibbeen as a main tourist destination, and promote it as one of the best natural spots
in the Kingdom.
Jordan is rich in internationally recognized historical and cultural sites, with a diverse natural
environment and fair weather. The owner recognizes that this potential is the untapped treasure of the
Kingdom and has been working to introduce new real estate niche market products, both locally and
globally.
The owner believes it is possible to build environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing resorts
without disturbing nature. This is reflected in their low-density developments, and the strict eco-
friendly guidelines they have dictated on their designers. To ensure the realization of its vision and
commitment, the owner is working with one of the top Resort Operators in the world; Amanresorts.
The project is planned to be operated by Amanresorts, becoming the first resort for Aman group in the
Middle East and the 19th
all over the world. The project aims to be environmentally responsible travel
destinations in relatively undisturbed natural areas, for the enjoyment and appreciation of nature as the
overall vision of the developer was to establish a leading eco-tourism resort.
Munya Tourism Project is intended to be the largest investment project in the north of the kingdom
and the first of its kind in terms of observance of environmental and developmental aspects of an
investment location.
The new project concept has been developed with the main characteristics being the exclusivity and
privacy offered to its users while enjoying one of the most noteworthy environmental locations of
Jordan.
The project is slated for completion mid 2014

Osama CV page 7/26
A supertall skyscraper tower, which is till now under construction and when completed, the tower is
supposed to be Doha’s tallest mixed-use high rise building and will be taller than several other
proposed skyscrapers in the city. The tall elegantly proportioned tower ascends above the podium in
three inclined segments terminating at the spire.
The project is being developed as a world class mixed use development combining Commercial
Offices, Hotel, Retail and Private Dwellings.
The building will be structured around a central robust concrete core, with columns and perimeter
cross bracing. The tower ascends above the podium in three segments, terminating at the spire. Two
service floors are introduced at mid-intervals to satisfy structural stability and servicing requirements.
The building orientation and geometry offer magnificient views of the sea. The bold sloping roofs and
angular glass facades will glow and sparkle as they capture the changing sunlight at different times of
the day, and transform into illuminations of elegance with shimmering reflections in the water as dusk
descends.

The 90 Storey Dubai Tower - Doha was the winning entry in 2004 international design competition. It
was the striking tower form that the client was initially drawn to and every effort has been made to stay
true to this original concept. The client’s aspiration for the project was for it to be a beacon for Dubai
in Doha, Qatar. RMJM sought to make Dubai Towers - Doha a true mixed-use development, locating
the various programmatic elements in order to bring all the uses and end users together while
providing appropriate privacy. With the combination of hotel, serviced apartments, residential
apartments, offices and retail space, Dubai Tower - Doha seeks to create a high end luxury
development where occupants can truly live, work and play.
The brief was to make the tower, which is to be operated by Jumeirah Group a defining symbol for
Dubai in Qatar, which would be synonymous with luxury and 5-star services for the visitors within the
space. Omar Zaher managed a team of designers in the development of the interiors while working at
KCA International as a Design Associate.
With a slogan of "make it to the top", the tower till suspension has not progressed far above the 23th
floor. With over 60 floors yet to be built and no discernable progress on site since early 2011, it is
uncertain to the general public as to when they will make it to the top, if ever.
When planned, Dubai Towers - Doha was to be the tallest tower in Qatar, reaching an impressive 438
meters to the top of the spire. Since that time, several other Qatari financed towers in excess of this
height have entered the development stage, QNB (Qatar National Bank) tower in the adjacent plot
being one of them.
Dubai Towers - Doha is part of an international construction investment of four major projects, with
further towers in Casablanca, Istanbul and Dubai. These projects have been cancelled or suspended
indefinitely.
The unfinished Dubai Tower – Doha is in stark contrast to the night lights on the glittering new towers
of West Bay and as the area continues to develop, this seemingly abandoned project looks ever more
out of place.
The project has been severely delayed as a result of the financial crash in Dubai since 2008/2009.
Construction progressed at a very low pace. However, in Jan 2011 only 23 of the proposed 90 storeys
had been built. At normal building rates, this would suggest at least 4 years delay until final
completion. (anticipated completion end of 2014)
As a result of the world financial crisis in 2008/2009, Sama Dubai decided to close the
project due to lack of funds. That was the reason I left the job and returned home to
join Munya project in Jordan.
By the time I left the project, overall % of completion was about 30%

The site allocated for this development consists of 3 plots of land. One is owned by the client, while
the other two are on lease basis. The leased plots were allowed to be developed for the basement car
parking up to ground level.
The latest technology, the most effective construction methods and the high quality materials have
been adopted to guarantee that the highest international standards are met in 'Dubai Towers - Doha'.
Elements such as jump formworks (self climbing), composite steel columns, pre-cast floor planks on
steel beams, post-tensioned cast-in-situ concrete slabs and high strength concrete, have all been
incorporated to guarantee an efficient construction process and an unparalleled and high-quality
property. In addition, continuous value engineering exercises have been implemented throughout the
course of construction to assure the project's conformity to quality.

Project Description Under the auspices and operation of The National Council for Culture Arts and Heritage (NCCAH),
the Museum of Islamic Art aims to provide an easily accessible major community resource for the
public and become a notable landmark for the City of Doha. In addition to providing the highest
standards of display, conservation, research and renovation, the Museum will also be an education
institution offering support to local schools and provide facilities for research from within Qatar and
from abroad.
The Museum’s highly prominent chosen site is approached from the Corniche via roundabout at the
junction of Jabr Bin Mohammed Street. The approach road follows the edge of an existing sea wall at
the southern edge of the Doha harbor.
The main body of the Museum itself (approx. 12,000 m2 footprint) is to be constructed at the head of
this straight access road on an island formed beyond an existing reclaimed land area and will be linked
Osama CV page 18/26
to the main land by vehicle and pedestrian bridges of approximately 50 and 70 m in length
respectively. The existing shoreline from the Museum towards the south is to be reconfigured to form
a circular bay with a peninsula backdrop.
The main body of the Museum building is planned on a total of five levels plus a mechanical
penthouse, and is located on a rectangular platform measuring 185 ms by 65 m. The public area of the
complex itself is planned as two separate blocks with an intervening courtyard and a further courtyard
to the west stepping down to sea level and a small vessel docking facility.
The building is clad entirely in stone and rises directly from sea level with the minimum of window
openings. The central block is progressively stepped as it rises above a central atrium, the dome of
which is concealed by the perimeter stonewall of the central tower. A major glazing feature is however
introduced into the northern façade covering the full height of the atrium accommodation and offers
views out over Doha Bay from each level.
