ALEC has announced the integration of INPROSERV, a provider of built asset maintenance services, into its group. This move involves ALEC acquiring a stake in the Middle East company alongside INPROSERV International, which operates physical offices in Europe and Africa and delivers services to major infrastructure projects worldwide

This development reflects ALEC's commitment to enhancing its capabilities and expanding its value proposition across various industries, including mining, energy, petrochemical, oil & gas, marine, offshore, manufacturing, industrial, and construction sectors. In the latter part of 2022, ALEC also acquired TARGET Engineering Construction Company LLC, a leading mechanical oil & gas, electrical, civil, and marine services provider based in the UAE.

“Over the years, we have steadily expanded our core areas of expertise through rigorous R&D, world-class talent development programs, and strategic acquisitions of market-leading organisations that embody the principles that are a hallmark of our brand,” said Barry Lewis, CEO at ALEC. “With INPROSERV Middle East now part of the ALEC Group, we are propelling ourselves further ahead, solidifying our position as the partner-of-choice for end-to-end delivery and maintenance of the region's most ambitious construction endeavours.”

Specialised services

INPROSERV provides a range of turnkey services for oil refineries, bulk fuel tank storage terminals, offshore oil & gas rigs, mines, power stations, construction sites, commercial buildings, and manufacturing plants. These services encompass bulk fuel storage tank construction, mechanical work, repairs, and maintenance, as well as piping and valves installation. Additionally, they offer specialised services such as painting, sandblasting, corrosion control, tank linings, epoxy flooring, waterproofing, fireproofing, concrete coring, cutting, repairs, roofing insulation, and painting.

ALEC aims to expand these services to both new and existing clients across the middle east by capitalising on INPROSERV's established office footprint and industry expertise.

“Our business has been on a steady upward trajectory, a direct outcome of strategic decisions aligned with our destination statement. Therefore, it's crucial to enter into the right partnerships to strengthen our ability to deliver world-class projects. The incorporation of INPROSERV into the ALEC Group will bring added value to both our existing and future clients.” said John Deeb, COO of ALEC.

“The Middle East has always been a focus market for INPROSERV and this partnership furthers the scope of our business in the region. We are proud to be part of the ALEC Group as this paves the way for our expertise to be applied to a wide range of iconic projects. We are especially impressed by the synergies between their teams and subsidiaries which will ensure that the skills of our team of experts perfectly complements the impressive range of services that the Group offers,” said Schalk Engelbrecht, general manager of INPROSERV.
