The Problem


The newly constructed, 17-story headquarters of a government-owned oil and gas regulatory agency in the Niger Delta—comprising extensive office spaces, a 1,000-seater international conference center, and a multilevel car park—faces significant operational readiness challenges.

Due to the scale and complexity of this facility, including its critical function within the oil and gas sector, the absence of comprehensive operations and maintenance manuals, clear maintenance specifications, as-built drawings, service level agreements, and integrated facility management software could lead to operational inefficiencies, unplanned downtimes, and potential safety risks.

Furthermore, without adequate training for the building users and operations teams, there is an increased likelihood of service disruptions, resource mismanagement, and asset underperformance, jeopardizing the headquarters' role in regulatory operations and stakeholder engagement.

This situation highlights the urgent need for a structured, sustainable solution to ensure readiness and effective handover of this strategic facility.

Cost Savings: By optimizing energy management and maintenance schedules, significant cost savings were achieved.

Improved Compliance: The facility’s HSE standards were brought in line with international best practices, improving overall safety and regulatory compliance.

Staff Empowerment: The facility management team's skills were enhanced through targeted training, leading to more effective operations.
