Following are the recommendations our Founder and General Manager, Moein Varaei, has received in recent years. For further details regarding these testimonials please refer to his LinkedIn profile.
"I had the pleasure of working with Moein for a period of around 6 months … . He has been tasked with managing some of the more 'difficult' projects and has shown a willingness and enthusiasm for 'getting things done'. Moein has a calm demeanor which is well matched with his considerable experience in the discipline of project management and delivery of civil / infrastructure projects.”
“I have had the privilege and pleasure of working with Mr. Moein Varaei, between August 2014 and February 2016 at Dubai Aviation Engineering Projects (DAEP). Mr. Varaei was the Director of Infrastructure – Roads, Bridges and Tunnels, while I served at the time in my capacity of Head of Development and Master Planning.
During most of that period, we worked very closely in managing the design of the second phase of Al-Maktoum International Airport, the future hub of Emirates Airline. The Master Plan had an ultimate capacity of 220 million passengers per year, with a Phase I budget in excess of $30 Billion US Dollars.
Mr. Varaei handled all aspects of Infrastructure design, leading and overseeing a large team of international specialized Design Consultants.
He displayed great leadership skills in his role, managing the different aspects of his portfolio, from the Stakeholders’ business needs to the technical aspects and finally the all-important budget constraints. He was instrumental in initiating and steering several key value-engineering initiatives, which eventually led to positive operational changes for our stakeholders, better value for money, and ultimately reduced the overall budget by several hundred million US Dollars.
During our interactions, Mr. Varaei displayed excellent professionalism and a very pleasant and charming personality. Yet, he is very firm and resolute when leading large workshops, and I have witnessed him several times managing and defusing large politically-charged meetings with different key stakeholders with conflicting interests. I would definitely recommend Mr. Varaei for a leadership position in any infrastructure-related field, and firmly believe he would be a great asset to any team.”
I worked with Moein on a city masterplan for 8000 inhabitants and for a mixed use commercial and residential in Iraq. Moein handled large elements of the technical design management and coordination and was always hardworking, approachable, organized and produced high quality results on time. I would gladly work with him again.... a good solid guy!
“Moein was fantastic in helping us develop and strengthen our project management processes. Moein's vast knowledge gathered during his time on globally significant projects provided us with a robust system and training to protect our business and deliver value for clients.”
“I have known Moein Varaei since 2006 and have worked with him for 5 … years at AECOM …...
Many of the projects that he managed involved teams from several AECOM offices across the globe …
In 2013, …. his role was extended to include a portfolio of 40 projects. In his tenure with AECOM, Moein has been the …. manager on some of AECOM’s key signature projects …..
During the time that I have worked with Moein, I have found him to be a focused and organized professional who is committed to ensuring that AECOM delivers ….. the quality that our clients have grown to expect of AECOM.
Moein is also an accredited trainer of one of AECOM’s signature training program called Managing AECOM Projects (MAP); an intense two-day program designed to train AECOM’s project managers to deliver projects to the satisfaction of the client and AECOM. I have also delivered this training program alongside Moein and found him to be a competent and confident trainer.
Moein is also committed to supporting his colleagues in their career development. In this capacity, he has coached and monitored a number of my staff on a regular basis, as well as staff from other departments, to plan their careers and be better team players.
In conclusion, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Moein and look forward to the day we can work together again.”
“Having worked closely with Moein Varai in recent times, I am very happy to recommend him especially in the areas of Project Management as well as developing appropriate organisational documentation such as comprehensive Policies and Procedures.

As a director in a not for profit organisation, I do not hesitate to recommending Moein to any corporation or organisation that needs highly professional input and services.”
“Moein worked with me on several large mixed use master plans ($1bn) where he headed up the infrastructure delivery. He had a large team reporting to him from various offices ….. He managed his team well and often helped me make the right decisions! .... I would not hesitate in having him work with me again.”
Moein is a balanced individual, always offering practical solutions by virtue of his vast knowledge. He has the motivation and tools to get large scale projects coordinated and off the ground.
With his lengthy experience in the region, Moein understands what it takes to put teams together and get the job done. He is an every-ready solution orientated professional.
With an enviable intellect and development design knowledge I consider Moein a friend and worthy professional acquaintance.
“Moein is an excellent facilitator and subject matter expert, bridging the important cross-over between engineering and project management.
I have worked with Moein for three years and have always found him to be approachable, knowledgeable and focussed on delivering project success, consistently through a global lens.

Moein is able to translate complex concepts into clear, engaging, and measurable learning experiences. Moein has a strategic mindset, attention to detail, and learner-focused approach which makes him a valuable asset to any project.”
“I worked closely with Moein over a 6 month period assisting me in the development of project management procedures. During that time he displayed a thorough knowledge on the subject. His approach to the task was very professional, and he facilitated a number of workshop which produced positive results. He was a pleasure to work with and I do not hesitate in recommending Moein, especially in the area of Project Management.”

“I have worked alongside Moein on several multi-disciplinary projects and proposals since 2010. I was most impressed by Moein's calm and composed manner in which he handled work-related pressures and interfaced with his colleagues to achieve the project objectives without losing his cool at any moment.
Due to Moein's extensive experience …. operating in senior roles, he also acted as a mentor for many staff …. to consider different perspectives when solving problems.”

During his three years with (our firm) Moein secured and worked on projects with some of the major clients….
In addition, …. (our office) … office achieved ISO 9001:2008 certification. This was achieved as a result of Moein and his staff’s commitment to the systematic functioning of the … office and the quality of work produced by RME.”
“I am pleased to confirm that over the past few months, Mr. Moein Varaei has supported our organisation, and myself personally. During this period Moein has helped us by interviewing, shortlisting and selecting talented volunteers needed for our new initiatives that our organisation had never considered or previously been able to implement. Moein has collaborated with me to develop strategies that impact our staff and volunteers.
Our organisation, now more than ever before, can attract, engage and retain these valuable staff and volunteers to enhance our organisation. Moein has also been actively involved in developing our strategies for these new initiatives and supported us by preparing a detailed plan for the implementation of our new projects. To achieve this, Moein has chaired and facilitated a number of strategy sessions. He is currently assisting me in the implementation stage of these new initiatives.
I have found Moein to be a very patient professional and he is a clear thinker. Moein is a person who can see the bigger picture, and, at the same time, notice the little details and tasks that need to be addressed for our initiatives to achieve their intended goals.
I would not hesitate to recommend Moein to any organisation.”
