Delivering projects across the Middle East

We are a client-side project management consultancy working across the Middle East. We exist to set the benchmark for how ambitious projects are imagined, led, and delivered, combining strategic thinking, design understanding, commercial intelligence, and delivery expertise to guide complex projects with confidence, clarity, and care.

Founded in London by David Rees, a chartered architect who went on to become an internationally recognised project manager, LXA was built on a simple belief: exceptional design alone does not guarantee exceptional project delivery. Having experienced the challenges of bringing ambitious projects to life firsthand, David established LXA on the belief that clients deserve a partner who takes full ownership of the complexities of delivery while remaining true to the original vision. More than two decades later, that founding principle continues to shape everything we do.

Our presence in the Middle East

We have been operating in the Middle East since 2007, establishing our Dubai office during a period of extraordinary growth in the region. Since then, we have expanded our presence across the GCC, opening in Riyadh to support the growing volume of Saudi Arabia development projects as the Kingdom leads nearly 40% of the Middle East's construction activity.

As one of the longest-established client-side consultancies in the UAE, we have built an extensive network of trusted partners, suppliers, contractors, and specialist consultants across the region. Combined with our established international procurement network, this enables us to identify the most appropriate sourcing strategy for each project, balancing quality, programme, availability, and commercial value.

Our Dubai office remains the hub of our regional operation, serving clients across UAE construction projects and the wider GCC construction market.

London heritage. Dubai ambition. Global impact.

Approach

A client-side approach to project delivery

We are appointed by clients to act on their behalf. We are not the contractors, and we are not the designers. We are the trusted partner bringing every part of the project together, making sure the client's objectives drive every decision made throughout delivery. We are there to protect our clients' interests, taking ownership of delivery and acting as their trusted representative from start to finish.

Client-side project management means independent project oversight, structured project governance, and genuine accountability for outcomes. We work closely with the full project team because well-coordinated teams produce better results. But our focus is always on what the client needs the project to achieve, and on making sure it gets there.

We make complex projects feel clear and confident. We anticipate challenges before they become problems. We bring leadership, not simply management.

The Grove Café & Restaurant / The Turtle Cove Café & Restaurant

On a project of this scale and complexity, strong project management is fundamental, and LXA have brought exactly that. From our perspective as one of the lead design consultants, their involvement has made a genuine difference to both the pace of the project and the way the consultant team works together.

Founder & Managing Director

Studio Miaki

Bringing LXA onto our projects was a game changer. For the first time, we have real clarity on our projects - where we are, what needs to happen next and what is required to deliver them successfully. We now have much better control of time, cost and quality. This has given us much more confidence in the way our projects are being managed and delivered.

MNKY HSE was a challenging project with complications at every level. LXA were proactive in dealing with the issues often before they arose. I would recommend David and his team to others, and indeed I already have!
