These services will include specialised maintenance for the airfield systems and equipment that includes the navigation aids, radio communication, airfield lighting systems and the runway civil works, as well as electrical, mechanical, plumbing and civil works.

The three-year agreement, which is MAF Dalkia’s first aviation-related contract, was signed at the department’s headquarters in the presence of H.E. Eng. Abdulwahab Mohammed Khalfan Al Roomi, director general of Department of Civil Aviation Sharjah, and Alexandre Mussallam, chief executive officer of MAF Dalkia.
 
H.E. Abdulwahab M. Al Roomi said, “Signing the agreement reflects Sharjah International Airport’s keen interest to keep and maintain all its facilities, including service and technical facilities and operate efficiently round the clock. No doubt, the agreement will help the Airport’s Engineering Department to function properly amidst rapidly growing movement of passengers, airplanes and airfreight and the Airport’s high rates during the recent years. This requires an effective maintenance department that assumes its functions accurately and professionally.”
 
“We are pleased to sign this agreement with Sharjah International Airport, the most ancient airport in the region. We will provide our distinguished experience and services to the Airport in order to maintain the Airport’s leading position on the local, regional and international levels. We will perform our works to the full satisfaction of the Department, which we would like to thank for its confidence and selecting us to carry out this project,” added Alexandre Mussallam.
