Tafawuq Facilities Management introduces Intelligent Cleaning Robot to assist operations teams

Tafawuq Facilities Management, a subsidiary of Eltizam Asset Management Group and amongst the leading facilities management (FM) companies in the UAE, has announced that following successful test trials, it will begin using a new intelligent cleaning robot solution, as part of its cleaning equipment fleet, to serve its clients, reduce costs and facilitate enhanced efficiency of operations. The introduction of this robot is part of Tafawuq’s commitment to innovate in the field of FM and comes following the successful roll-out of a paperless mobility maintenance solution earlier this year.

During test trials, the robot has demonstrated the ability to sweep, suck, and wash floor surfaces safely, efficiently, and promptly; ensuring employees can focus on more value adding responsibilities. Tafawuq is currently training its soft service staff to understand and become acquainted with the robot’s key feature which include automatic water distribution control, complete remote control, safety LED flashing lights, mechanical collection and suction, ultra-silent mode, and maintenance without the use of tools, before dispatching it to various locations,

Mohammed Alsharaf, COO, Eltizam Asset Management Group, said: “We are on the verge of a paradigm shift in how technology is used to manage the built environment and make our cities smarter. At Eltizam we are constantly looking for ways to test and adopt new technologies to achieve these goals. As part of this program, we are delighted that we will be introducing the intelligent robots to our fleet, which will bring us closer to our vision of providing sustainable and strategic asset management solutions to our clients and customers. We strive to uphold our commitment to introduce and deliver innovative solutions and maintain our leading position in terms of asset technology in the facilities management (FM) industry. Aside from being intelligent, the robot’s require low maintenance, which in turn will be cost-effective for our clients, and we, as a company will continue to work towards a sustainable future with enhanced enthusiasm and service offerings.”

Since its establishment in 2009, Tafawuq has grown rapidly, becoming one of the most prominent integrated FM service providers in the market. The company provides a fully integrated FM service to more than 200 clients and 10 million square feet of real estate in various sectors across the UAE, achieving customer happiness through the delivery of innovative solutions by its trusted, talented partners.  The delivery of the cleaning robot will further solidify its market edge and accelerate Eltizam’s “Vision 21” Business Transformation Program that aims to improve efficiency through innovation and focus on customer satisfaction.
