Mohannad Abu Mousa: As with other companies, we have a supply chain department that is handling these challenges along with projects Department, at AlMoosa Doors we believe that the first step to success is planning. We work hard to forecast the required materials we will need in advance.

So, to be in a good position with stock items, we plan for six months ahead at least to keep our progress and delivery time on target for our clients.

Mohannad Abu Mousa: When the client is choosing a steel door supplier, they should ensure that the supplier already complies with all door requirements and can provide what they say they can. A client should also make sure that they are dealing with an experienced team who can work with them in a consultancy capacity and can propose solutions for specific issues. And of course, quality certificates, prices, and delivery time along with after-sales service cannot be neglected.
Saudi Projects: When working with architects and consultants, from what stage of a project do you like to be involved, and does this affect the end result?
Mohannad Abu Mousa: Usually, we are involved with consultants at the technical approval stage. At the time of design, projects may have a lot of deviations and be subject to changes at the time of execution, so it is better involved in the beginning in order to work with the consultants and advise them on the best proposals to meet the project requirements.
