Our Services

From the first sketch to the final handover — HGC provides complete architectural, engineering, and management services across every stage of your project.

What We Do

Eight disciplines. One integrated team.

At HaileGabriel Consult, every service is delivered by specialists who collaborate from day one — so nothing falls through the gaps between architecture, structure, and services.

Architectural Design — HGC

Service 01

Architectural Design

Our architectural team creates spaces that are visually compelling, technically rigorous, and deeply responsive to each client's vision. Every project begins with careful listening — understanding how the building will be used, who will inhabit it, and what role it should play in its surroundings.

We use advanced 3D modelling and BIM workflows throughout the design process, giving clients a clear picture of their building before construction begins. From feasibility studies and concept design through to detailed construction documentation, we manage every stage with precision and clear communication.

  • Feasibility studies and site analysis
  • Concept design and design development
  • 3D modelling, renders and BIM coordination
  • Construction documentation and specifications
  • Tender documentation and contractor support
  • Regulatory submissions and approvals
Structural Engineering — HGC

Service 02

Structural Engineering

A great building stands on great engineering. Our structural team brings decades of experience across building typologies — from single-storey industrial facilities to 23-storey high-rise towers — designing systems that are safe, efficient, and economical in material use.

We work closely with the architectural team from the earliest design stages, ensuring that structural decisions support rather than compromise the spatial vision. Our engineers have handled deep basement excavations, post-tensioned flat-plate systems, transfer structures, and long-span roofs across our portfolio.

  • Structural system selection and optimisation
  • Foundation design and geotechnical coordination
  • Reinforced concrete, steel, and hybrid structures
  • Post-tensioned slab and transfer beam systems
  • Lateral load analysis (wind and seismic)
  • Structural drawings and specifications
MEP Engineering — HGC

Service 03

MEP Engineering

Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems are the hidden infrastructure that makes a building comfortable, efficient, and safe. Our MEP team designs these systems to be fully integrated with the architecture — not bolted on as an afterthought — resulting in buildings that perform better and cost less to run.

We leverage BIM coordination to resolve clashes between structural and MEP elements before construction begins, saving significant time and cost on-site. Our designs increasingly incorporate renewable energy systems, smart building controls, and energy-efficient HVAC strategies tailored to the Ethiopian climate.

  • HVAC design and energy modelling
  • Electrical systems, power distribution and lighting
  • Plumbing, drainage and sanitary systems
  • Fire detection, suppression and life-safety systems
  • Building Management System (BMS) integration
  • Renewable energy and sustainability provisions
Landscape Design — HGC

Service 04

Landscape Design

The spaces between and around buildings matter as much as the buildings themselves. Our landscape team designs outdoor environments that connect people, promote wellbeing, and create a sense of place — while working with Addis Ababa's climate to keep maintenance demands low and plantings resilient.

We handle everything from the strategic landscape master plan down to the specification of individual planting species, paving materials, water features, and outdoor lighting. Sustainability is central to every scheme: we prioritise drought-tolerant species, permeable paving, and efficient irrigation systems.

  • Landscape master planning and concept design
  • Hardscape: paving, walls, steps and pergolas
  • Planting design with climate-appropriate species
  • Irrigation system design and specification
  • Water features and outdoor lighting
  • Community spaces and public realm design
Interior Design — HGC

Service 05

Interior Design

Interior spaces are where people spend their time — and the quality of those spaces directly affects how people feel and how effectively they work or rest. Our interior design practice creates environments that are functional, beautiful, and true to each client's identity.

We coordinate closely with the architectural and MEP teams so that finishes, lighting, and furnishings are fully integrated with the building's structure and services. From lobby concepts and executive floors to hotel rooms and restaurant interiors, our curated approach balances comfort, durability, and aesthetic impact.

  • Interior concept design and mood boards
  • Space planning and furniture layout
  • Material, finish and colour specifications
  • Custom millwork and joinery design
  • Lighting design and fixture schedules
  • FF&E procurement coordination
Project Management — HGC

Service 06

Project Management

Delivering a complex building on time and within budget demands more than good design — it demands rigorous coordination, clear communication, and experienced decision-making under pressure. HGC's project management team brings three decades of real-world delivery experience to every project we manage.

We use industry-standard project management tools to track programme milestones, monitor expenditure, and report clearly to clients. Risk management is built into our process from the start — we identify potential issues early and resolve them before they become delays or cost overruns.

  • Programme planning, scheduling and milestone tracking
  • Budget management and cost reporting
  • Consultant and contractor coordination
  • Risk identification and mitigation planning
  • Stakeholder communication and progress reporting
  • Change management and variation control
Construction Supervision — HGC

Service 07

Construction Supervision

A building is only as good as its construction. Our supervision team provides daily, hands-on oversight of construction activities — verifying that every element of workmanship, materials, and sequencing aligns with the approved drawings and specifications. We believe that the best site supervision is proactive: finding and solving problems before they are built in.

From our principal architects to our resident engineers, the full weight of HGC's technical expertise is available on-site throughout construction. We maintain detailed site diaries, issue instructions promptly, and coordinate the inspection and testing regime to ensure quality at every stage.

  • Daily site attendance and workmanship inspection
  • Materials testing and compliance verification
  • Contractor coordination and instruction issuance
  • Quality assurance documentation and site records
  • Health, safety and compliance oversight
  • Practical completion inspections and defects management
Contract Management — HGC

Service 08

Contract Management

Construction contracts are complex legal instruments — and the way they are drafted, administered, and enforced has a direct impact on project outcomes. Our contract management service protects our clients' interests throughout the project lifecycle, ensuring that every party understands their obligations and that disputes are resolved efficiently.

Our team has extensive experience with FIDIC and Ethiopian standard forms of contract. We handle tender packaging, contractor pre-qualification, bid evaluation, contract negotiation, and the complete administration of contracts during construction — including valuations, variations, and final account settlement.

  • Tender documentation and contractor pre-qualification
  • Bid analysis and contract negotiation
  • Contract drafting and review (FIDIC, local forms)
  • Interim valuation and payment certification
  • Variation assessment and change order management
  • Claims management and final account settlement

How We Work

Our Process

01

Brief & Feasibility

We begin by listening — understanding your goals, your site, your constraints, and your budget. Initial feasibility studies help shape realistic expectations from the start.

02

Design Development

Concept designs are refined through close collaboration with you. 3D visualisations, BIM models, and regular reviews ensure the design evolves in exactly the right direction.

03

Technical Documentation

Complete construction drawings, engineering calculations, specifications and tender packages — everything a contractor needs to price and build the project accurately.

04

Site Delivery

Our team stays with the project through construction — supervising workmanship, managing contracts, and ensuring that what gets built matches what was designed.
