About the Partner Organisation 

The National Housing Development Corporation Limited (NHDCL) is a State-Owned  Enterprise (SOE) dedicated to providing affordable housing and related services. Since its inception in July 2011, NHDCL has played a pivotal role in developing, managing, and promoting affordable housing facilities across the country. This assignment is crucial for the National Housing Development Corporation Limited (NHDCL) as it prepares to take on the facility management of the Gyalsung Academies, a mandate that requires advanced expertise beyond its current scope.
