Client Representative FAQ

FrequentlyAsked.

What is a client representative (owner's representative)?

A client representative acts solely for the property owner, as the link between the owner, the consulting engineering office, and the contractor doing the work. Benaa represents your interests on site — following up on approvals, safety, quality, project duration, and material standards — so you don't have to manage everyone yourself.

What does Benaa's client representative service include?

Benaa liaises with the consulting engineering office to push the government approvals forward and chase any missing documentation, and coordinates between you and the contractor executing the work. We follow up on site safety, quality, project duration, and the correct application of material standards — keeping the project aligned from tender to handover.

How is the client representative service priced?

Client representative and engineering supervision is quoted either as a percentage of the project's capital cost or as a fixed monthly retainer, depending on project size and duration. Benaa provides a free scoping discussion and a transparent quotation.

Why hire a client representative instead of dealing with the contractor directly?

An independent representative gives the owner one point of accountability across the engineering office and the contractor. Benaa catches approval delays, quality issues, and programme slippage early and keeps everyone accountable to the approved scope, schedule, and budget — protecting value when the owner lacks the time or technical background to supervise daily.

Does Benaa supervise projects it is not building?

Yes. As a client representative, Benaa protects the owner's interests on projects executed by other contractors — acting as the link to the consulting engineering office and the contractor, and following up on approvals, safety, quality, programme, and materials, without any conflict of interest.
