            acknowledged as the brains behind its design.
               Arch. Simu has worked at MMI for most of
            his life, clocking close to four decades, and rising
            through the ranks, from internship to eventually
            lead the company to great heights of achievement.
            Having started work at the firm before some of
            the current staff were even born, Arch. Simu’s
            role is a strong statement of quality leadership,
            perpetuating the values that MMI stands for, and
            not only nurturing the firm’s talent, but adding
            to the market a thriving group of alumni in the
            Kenyan building and construction industry.
               MMI’s competitive edge stems from extensive
            collective experience and local knowledge of
            project requirements, site conditions and building
            construction.
               Arch. Fawaz avers that the MMI team
            is also highly knowledgeable in the rigorous
            project management procedures as required by
            organizations such as the United Nations and
            other international agencies.
               “Sound project management and contract
            administration ensures that our projects are
            properly handled in terms of Cost, Quality and
            Time,” he says, adding that MMI guarantees
            clients solution based designs which consider
            creativity and sustainability under the umbrella of
            ISO Certification that demands high operational
            standards and boosts efficiency in service delivery.
               Some of the outstanding jobs designed by the
            MMI team include:
