Julius Berger has reiterated its commitment to sustainability in doing business.

Technical Manager, Facility Management in Lagos, Engr. Amina Dottie, highlighted the company’s decade-long journey in facility management, emphasizing that the practice has been integral to the company’s operations for about 20 years long before many current industry players emerged.

This was contained in a statement as Julius Berger Nigeria Plc stood out as both a sponsor and key contributor at the International Facility Management Association (IFMA) Global Africa Conference held in Lagos recently.

This is to reaffirm its commitment to advancing Facility Management (FM) across Africa.

The Conference convened leading professionals to discuss innovation, sustainability, and the future of the built environment.

The event which featured immense training sessions and expert panel discussions had the Past President of IFMA, Mr. Segun Adebayo, commending Julius Berger as a robust facility management structure spanning its regions, even as he praised the company’s unique perspective on sustainability in the industry.

To underscore the foregoing point, Engr. Dottie cited the Lekki–Ikoyi Toll Bridge project in Lagos, where recurring vandalization of power infrastructure had posed significant challenges, adding that Julius Berger collaborated with government agencies, conducting facility audits and recommending solution-driven reports.

The development led to the installation of solar-powered CCTVs to monitor and secure the bridge’s lighting system, enhancing safety, reducing reliance on traditional power, and safeguarding public infrastructure, she further said.
