Ras Al Khaimah, UAE – 20th November 2025: RAK Properties, Ras Al Khaimah’s leading publicly listed property developer, and the United Al Saqer Group (UASG), one of the UAE’s leading multi-sector business groups, are proud to launch One Facilities Management (One FM).

One FM is uniquely placed to play a leading role in the growing facilities management market in the Northern Emirates through its integrated services offering.

The partnership combines RAK Properties strong local market knowledge and operational footprint with UASG’s global FM expertise, technical capabilities, and innovation-driven service delivery. One Facilities Management aims to set new industry benchmarks by offering comprehensive, end-to-end FM solutions, including hard and soft facilities management, energy management, sustainability advisory, asset lifecycle planning, digital FM, CAFM & IoT-enabled monitoring, and specialized technical services.

The newly formed entity will focus on serving key sectors such as residential communities, commercial developments, mixed-use properties, industrial assets, hospitality, education, and healthcare, with an emphasis on safety, energy efficiency, service excellence, and customer experience.

The outsourced facilities management sector within the Northern Emirates is estimated to be worth AED 4.9 billion in 2025 based on a combination of projected RAK GDP growth and FM demand driven by major tourism projects. This market is expected to undergo a CAGR in excess of 7% by the year 2030.

Commenting, Sameh Muhtadi, CEO, RAK Properties, said: We are proud to launch One Facilities Management, which we believe will take an immediate leadership role in the FM space in the Northern Emirates. Our home Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah is experiencing unprecedented growth across all areas of the real estate market which represents a significant opportunity for an integrated facilities management entity to better serve the needs of developers and customers.

 As a shareholder in RAK Properties, it is natural for us to strengthen this partnership and channel nearly five decades of UASG’s experience into a unified FM platform. Through iFM’s technical depth, digital readiness, and operational capability, we are equipping One FM with the strength and scalability it needs from day one. This partnership positions One FM not only to support RAK Properties’ growing portfolio, but to confidently expand into the wider Northern Emirates market—capturing new opportunities, elevating service standards, and delivering sustainable long-term value for our shareholders
