SAUDCONSULT

What SAUDCONSULT does

SAUDCONSULT is Saudi Arabia's oldest engineering firm, founded in 1966 and headquartered in Riyadh, providing architectural, civil engineering, infrastructure, and project management services to public-sector clients. The firm operates a professional-services model centered on large-scale government infrastructure programs, with a stated network of 1,800+ professionals accumulated over six decades of continuous operation. Its primary customer segment is Saudi Arabian government ministries and government-affiliated entities executing Vision 2030 infrastructure transformation, delivered through an enterprise field-sales motion focused on EPCM engagements.

The company's core offering historically covered engineering, architectural, and infrastructure design services. In January 2026, SAUDCONSULT formalized a strategic partnership with Canada's Dokainish & Company — a project controls and systems implementation consultancy — to deliver full EPCM capability (Engineering, Procurement, Construction Management, Project Controls, Systems, and Adoption) across the Kingdom. The alliance, announced during a Canadian government trade delegation to the Gulf, combines Dokainish's project controls and PMO expertise with SAUDCONSULT's local engineering talent and incumbency. Leadership is anchored by Founder Tarek M. A. Shawaf and CEO Fahad Al-Tamimi.

The firm derives revenue from professional-services fees on consulting engagements; no pricing, contract-value, or revenue figures are publicly disclosed. No proprietary technology products, software platforms, AI/ML capabilities, patents, or branded service modules are identified in the available sources. The business model is therefore classic engineering consultancy: time-and-materials or fixed-fee contracts on government infrastructure mandates, with margins and growth tied to the pace of Saudi public-sector capital deployment.
