PlanRadar, a digital platform for construction and real estate project management, has launched the Construction Site Templates Playbook, a new practical guide designed to help project teams strengthen day-to-day execution control through disciplined, repeatable site documentation.

As construction and real estate developments across the GCC increase in scale and complexity, site teams operate under continuous pressure: multiple trades working in parallel, frequent inspections, tight programmes, and strict compliance requirements. In this environment, performance issues often begin with simple breakdowns—unclear scope clarifications, delayed approvals, missed inspections, fragmented safety reporting, and incomplete records—then surface later during audits, handover, or dispute resolution when time and cost impacts are already locked in.

The Construction Site Templates Playbook addresses this challenge by positioning templates not as administrative paperwork, but as operational control points that help teams capture, verify, and act on information consistently across the project lifecycle. The playbook consolidates the most essential site templates into five execution pillars:

• Construction & Commercial Control (scope clarifications, inspections, approvals, change control)
• Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) (hazard identification, permits to work, incident reporting, compliance records)
• Quality & Inspections (structured verification, defects and non-conformance control, commissioning readiness)
• Progress & Coordination (daily reporting, look-ahead planning, constraint tracking, coordination actions)
• Materials & Logistics (material approvals, delivery inspections, traceable acceptance before installation)

The guide also introduces a practical “Execution Loop”, outlining the sequential stages of planning, executing, inspecting, correcting, and ultimately approving and closing. This approach demonstrates how the templates work together as a unified, disciplined system that enhances accountability, ensures traceability, and accelerates on-site decision-making.

“Successful delivery depends on more than planning—it depends on execution discipline,” said Ibrahim Imam, CEO and Co-Founder of PlanRadar “When clarifications, inspections, approvals, and corrective actions are captured consistently and tied to the right locations and evidence, site teams reduce ambiguity, protect quality, strengthen compliance, and improve handover readiness. This playbook is designed to make those controls practical and repeatable on every project.”

While the playbook can be applied in manual environments, it also highlights how structured digital workflows strengthen template usage by improving ownership, visibility, and audit readiness. By digitising templates, site records become time-stamped, traceable, and location-linked—reducing common challenges such as missing paperwork, delayed approvals, duplicated records, and unclear responsibility.

The Construction Site Templates Playbook is available in English and Arabic and is intended for developers, consultants, main contractors, subcontractors, and site teams involved in construction and real estate delivery across the GCC.

Dubai, UAE – January 2026: This new year, reset your rhythm, refresh your surroundings, and renew your way of living — with Natuzzi Italia. where a new environment sets the tone for a fresh start. Natuzzi Italia offers inspiration for every room of the home, with refined designs that combine comfort, style, and timeless Italian craftsmanship. From the award-winning Amama collection to the serene elegance of Habita, each piece is designed to elevate daily living.

HABITA by Mauro Lipparini

Essential lines and timeless harmony define Habita — a serene living concept where design and well-being coexist in perfect balance.

At its heart is a sculptural, modular sofa with generous proportions, refined upholstery, and enveloping curves, designed for comfort, sharing, and flexibility. Premium padding and thoughtful detailing ensure a relaxed yet elegant experience, adapting effortlessly to different spaces.

Habita is not just a collection — it is a way of living.

The collection is completed by an elegant yet functional coffee table and a striking monolithic dining table, fully lacquered in high-gloss finish. With its organic lines and integrated rotating lazy susan, the dining table seamlessly merges practicality with sculptural appeal.

Amama collection

Amama is a compositional project that redefines conviviality and versatility. It is a modular island sofa designed to shape space, offering the possibility of double-sided configurations for a modern and unusual living experience. Reflecting on architecture and ways of living, the armrest or backrest can become functional elements such as a shelf, table, or even a container.

It is a dynamic project where multiple elements of different textures and materials coexist in a play of overlaps and geometries, opening up to multi-directionality and multifunctionality, combining comfort with freedom of composition and use. It represents a new approach to living that balances aesthetics, flexibility, and functionality, extended by living and dining elements of the same collection.

The soft textures and shapes of Amama harmonize with Verde Antigua marble displays, while furnishings and decorative objects engage in a palette inspired by earth and sea. The result is an immersive experience designed to engage all senses and convey the idea of a harmonious and welcoming home.

Sobha Realty’s luxury villa community development – Sobha Elwood, will deploy innovative clean energy systems from Positive Zero, including the first-of-its-kind mobile battery energy storage system (mBESS) in the region.

The fume-free, noise-free mobile battery units deliver electricity where it’s needed on the construction site, replacing traditional diesel generators and fossil fuel dependency. Over the duration of the two-year agreement, Positive Zero’s HYPR system will replace the equivalent of more than 30,000 gallons of diesel – enough to power more than 25 million smartphones.

Mr. Ravi Menon, Chairman of Sobha Group said: “At Sobha Realty, sustainability is a fundamental pillar of how we build and how we envision the future of our communities. Our partnership with Positive Zero for Sobha Elwood marks another decisive step in integrating clean, renewable energy solutions across our developments. In alignment with the UAE Green Agenda 2030 and the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, this initiative reinforces our commitment to shaping communities that are world-class, future-ready, and environmentally resilient.”

Each mobile battery system is charged using clean, renewable solar power which is highly efficient compared to diesel equivalents. Positive Zero swaps batteries in and out, as required, to ensure a constant supply of reliable on-site electricity. It is estimated that 219 MWh of electricity will be delivered through the systems per year.

“We are delighted to support Sobha Realty in its pioneering new approach to real estate development, powering more sustainable construction and lowering carbon emissions. Sobha Realty is setting a clear benchmark for developers and demonstrating that clean energy can make a transformative difference to the sustainable development of cities,”  said Mr. David Auriau, Chief Executive Officer, Positive Zero.

It is the second project that Sobha Realty has signed with Positive Zero. Following the successful implementation of Positive Zero’s HYPR clean energy systems at Sobha One as the first project, Sobha Elwood now becomes the second development to adopt these innovative renewable energy solutions, as the real estate leader continues to support Dubai’s strategic initiative to reduce carbon emissions by 50% by 2030.
