"We needed 11 Excavator Operators for a villa compound in Riffa. Mahad filed the LMRA papers in 15 days — our own estimate was 30+. The GAMCA Medical + Bahrain Medical Check was arranged before the flight, so day-one site clearance was immediate. 2 batches placed through Mahad now, zero replacements across all of them."
