Frequently Asked Questions
From AI implementation timelines to regulatory support and performance outcomes — we’ve gathered the most common questions from our partners and clients. Explore this section to understand how Al Farabi Advisory turns complex healthcare challenges into measurable success stories.
Do we need commissioning services if we have a project manager?
Construction project managers handle building—we handle healthcare operations, licensing readiness and inspections. Both work as a team.
Can you work with our existing architect?
Yes. We collaborate with architects to ensure designs work operationally and meet regulatory requirements.
What if regulators reject our application?
Rare with proper preparation. We’ve never had an application fully rejected—because we know what regulators need.
How involved do we need to be?
You should be very much involved with the key decision making. Day-to-day execution: We handle it. We keep you informed without overwhelming you.
Can you help if we're already mid-construction?
Yes. Earlier is better, but we’ve rescued projects mid-stream. Contact us for assessment.
