MAY 2026 systems around their own existing equipment. They are also working with Alkus, a company that has developed plastic panels that are more durable and high-performing than traditional plywood forming surfaces. The company’s project work is also evolving and becoming more innovative. A recommendation from one of their longest-standing clients, Horizon Concrete in Kitchener, recently led to a new relationship with Stubbe’s Precast, a busy precast supplier working across Ontario. Together, they have done some pretty interesting work. One current project with Stubbe’s is a good example of the kind of creative problem-solving that Global Formwork thrives on – a highrise development where precast panels were delivered by truck along a path that runs overtop of the building’s parking deck. Global Formwork designed and supplied the temporary support system needed to safely carry those truck loads across the deck surface – a precise, engineered solution to a logistical challenge most suppliers would not have the expertise to tackle. Moving forward, Tamer’s vision for Global Formwork is to continue building long-lasting relationships with stakeholders of all kinds, and to take on even more innovative and challenging projects in collaboration with those partners. Tamer’s vision also includes becoming more efficient . He has been exploring the development of new software to help manage equipment inventory and logistics, and conversations with a programming engineer on that front opened his eyes to the potential of agentic AI to automate a growing range of tasks. Growth is coming – more staff, a larger yard, more equipment – but always in service of the same core priority. “The goal is always to be the most efficient company on the market, so customers never feel we’re too big to deal with them,” Tamer says. “The customer is always the biggest focus. We’re going to handle more clients and more volume, but we’ll keep efficiency, safety, and price as the top priorities.”
