About

I’m Abdul Kuthuz Mohamed Gazzali, a Senior Architect with 8+ years of experience across GCC and India, working end-to-end from design development and technical drawings through BIM documentation (up to LOD 350) to site execution and QA/QC. I focus on keeping design intent buildable—reducing handoff delays by coordinating early, resolving clashes proactively, and managing drawing teams with multi-discipline stakeholders.

Today I’m leading BIM delivery for the Diriyah Gate Development Authority (DGDA) as part of the DGDA giga-project, where I manage Revit-based blockwork packages across multiple buildings and coordinate structural/MEP clashes using BIM 360, ACC, and Navisworks. Previously, I’ve supervised large-scale delivery on major developments in Madinah and supported advanced facade and GFRC workflows for NEOM Sindalah, combining strong documentation skills with practical on-site oversight to ensure smooth consultant sign-offs and quality outcomes.
