The CGS Group is maintaining a specialized Refrigeration Engineering Department which is servicing for the whole Group means for our branches in Jeddah, Dammam, Bahrain and Kuwait. The most activities for projects are in Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam. The Department is financed according to an activity / numbers of engineering hours key from the various branches. Each branch has a Service and Installation Department to offer Maintenance, Service as well as to install the new projects on site, our CGS Sandwich Panels, Refrigeration Systems and all Electrical work. The Refrigeration Engineering Department is responsible for the technical functioning and implementation of the installation on site according to the drawings, diagrams etc. and is supporting and / or advising / counseling the Installation Managers / Supervisors of all the branches on the site.
The project engineers are normally handling the assigned projects and are supposed to coordinate / cooperate and communicate with the Installation Managers to make sure the installation is done correctly. The Installation Managers are normally working independently and should only come back for consultation if in doubt otherwise the drawings / diagrams are the guidelines for the execution.
Therefore, the supervision of the projects is in the hand of the branches and the Head of the Installation.
There are frequent trips to the sites in Riyadh normally reachable within a day trip and to the branches but to a maximum of every fortnight out of Riyadh depending on the subject and urgency of the projects. We are generally following some European Standards as the equipment is mostly from Europe. We also know about the ASHRAE B52 code and have some codes available in our office. The Engineering Refrigeration Manager is a part of the team and has also some projects on hand to work on equal to the project engineers.
The Engineering team has some dedicated specialist for purchasing all Refrigeration material and he is also responsible with his team in the store for the stock material and for the inventory.
