Go-to-market is sales-led, targeting mega-project bids with government and large enterprise clients. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with multi-year contract billing cadences.

The company is led by Chairman Khalid Al Rajhi and CEO Nasser Al Sultan, and operates six wholly-owned subsidiaries — Al Rajhi Electricity, Al Rajhi Telecom, Mehwar al-Eqtisad, Al-Sultan Contracting, MADERA, and Rajhi Steel — that vertically integrate electrical, telecom, doors, facades, steel, and economic services into project delivery.
