Success is rooted in strong connections and strategic partnerships, as demonstrated by Ankita, an architect with over five years in a BNI chapter, who referred Hashem, a fellow member and contractor, for a major project. Their collaboration resulted in a significant business win, showcasing the power of BNI networking.
While designing a luxury villa, Ankita, serving as a consultant, needed a reliable contractor for her client. She turned to her BNI network and recommended Hashem and his company, Mastery Building Contracting. Hashem’s tender perfectly aligned with Ankita’s design and project conditions. After several rounds of discussion, the client awarded him the villa construction contract, securing an AED 8 million deal.
This project, a proposed B+G+1+R villa covering an approximate area of 26,000 sq ft, is in the prestigious Dubai Hills. Freeline Engineering Consultants LLC, where Ankita works, is engaged as the main consultant, responsible for architecture and engineering design, obtaining all necessary authority approvals, and overseeing project management. As part of their scope, Freeline conducted a tender process, during which Ankita recommended Hashem’s company to be included. With their expertise and experience, particularly in Dubai Hills, Mastery Building Contracting LLC successfully won the bid and secured the contract. This marks their fourth collaboration, following successful projects on two Emirates Hills villas and an industrial facility in Dubai Industrial City.
This collaboration highlights how networking within BNI is more than just a strategy; it’s a powerful force that influences business outcomes. Ankita and Hashem’s strong professional bond, built on trust and mutual support within their BNI chapter, was crucial in securing this deal.
BNI’s emphasis on fostering connections within power teams and contact spheres ensures members can rely on each other for referrals and collaboration, turning networking into a game-changer for business success. As Hashem now embarks on turning Ankita’s vision into reality, this story serves as a powerful reminder of how effective networking can lead to remarkable achievements, creating lasting relationships that drive substantial success.
