What Mekdam Holding Group does

Mekdam Holding Group Q.P.S.C. is a 100% Qatari, Qatar-Stock-Exchange-listed conglomerate headquartered in Doha, operating through four wholly-owned, vertically integrated subsidiaries: Mekdam Technology (ICT, audiovisual, ELV, safety & security, engineering, and mobile telephony services), Mekdam CAMS (a Centralized Alarm Monitoring System authorized by the Qatar Ministry of Interior and linked to the National Command Centre, serving 4,000+ users), Mekdam Technical Services (manpower outsourcing, operations & maintenance across 18 sectors), and Mekdam Steel (structural steel engineering, fabrication, and installation). The group is certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, with ISO 27001 held by the technology subsidiary and the AVIXA APEx designation, and maintains strategic technology integrations with Cisco, Bosch, Palo Alto, Sophos, Crestron, SAP, Aruba, F5, and Christie.

Its offerings span cybersecurity, unified communications, SD-WAN, fiber and TETRA networks, structured cabling and AVLS; CCTV, video analytics, intrusion detection, ANPR and fire alarm systems compliant with MOI standards; full-spectrum AV including projection mapping, 3D holography, and voice evacuation; EPCM/EPIC delivery for oil & gas, power, water, and infrastructure (SCADA, F&G, field instrumentation); and recurring 24/7 alarm monitoring tied into the NCC, plus PEB and structural steel works. A June 2026 MoU with French photonic quantum firm Quandela targets regional quantum ecosystem deployment for energy, healthcare, and critical infrastructure.

Mekdam earns revenue through multi-year project contracts (EPC, steel fabrication), managed-services and O&M agreements, a CAMS subscription-style recurring model, and technical-services staffing, and it secured QAR 832 million of new awards in 2025 against a QAR 2.6 billion contract portfolio. Its customer base is concentrated in Qatar's public sector and large enterprises — including Qatar Petroleum, Qatar Gas, KAHRAMAA, RasGas, MOI, Ashghal, QNB, Al Khaliji, Hamad Medical Corporation, Qatar Foundation, and infrastructure projects such as Lusail Plaza, Katara Towers, and Doha Festival City — with named international engagements at KNPC (Kuwait) and Tottenham Stadium (UK), generating FY2024 revenue of QAR 558.9 million and 8.3% YoY net-profit growth through September 2025.
