DeMoura Lawson Consulting

What DeMoura Lawson Consulting does

DeMoura Lawson Consulting (DMLC) is a privately-held Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) consulting firm headquartered in Lusail Marina, Doha, Qatar, with a regional office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Founded in 2018 and operating with a lean team of fewer than 10 professionals led by Managing Partner Adel Lawson (CMIOSH), the firm serves corporate clients, government entities, industrial operators, and high-risk workplaces across the Middle East and selectively globally. Its service portfolio spans four pillars: HSE consultancy (management systems, behavioural-based safety through a proprietary BBS 2.0 methodology, risk assessment, accident investigation); executive high-performance coaching; support services (drone-enabled site inspections, mobile workforce management, crisis and emergency response); and accredited professional training (NEBOSH, IOSH, ISEP, Highfield, PECB certifications).

The firm monetizes through professional services engagements and unit-priced training courses, with publicly disclosed fees ranging from $3,000 to $11,000 per participant for HSEQ technical qualifications and $5,000 for leadership programs. Its go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales with scheduled live-online and in-company training delivery, leveraging accreditation channel partnerships with RRC, PECB, Highfield, NEBOSH, and IOSH to distribute internationally recognized credentials. DMLC integrates third-party technology platforms—Acumen for AI-powered ESG and safety reporting, RAYVN for critical event management, Pixaera for VR-based hazard training, and EcoOnline for H&S awareness—rather than developing proprietary software.

Notable enterprise clients include Hassad Qatar, QAFCO, QatarEnergy LNG, Tesla (Qatar operations), Gucci (Qatar and Kuwait), McDermott, Qatar Cool, Red Sea Gateway Terminal, and Builders, with engagements spanning ISO 45001/14001/9001 certification preparation, turnaround safety training for 8,000+ contractors, and ergonomic assessments. In 2024, DMLC established the DMLC SHIFT joint venture with Specialty Horizon Institute for Training to enter the Saudi Arabian market in alignment with Vision 2030 objectives.
