What HATCO does
HATCO (Al-Hashemiah Contracting Company) is a privately held Saudi Arabian general contractor headquartered in Riyadh, founded in 1976 and reorganized as a limited liability company in 2004. The firm delivers four core service lines — Construction, Telecommunications infrastructure, IT Solutions, and Electro Mechanical services — plus Data Center Construction — to government ministries, telecom operators, banks, and educational institutions across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. HATCO's defining operational feature is self-performance: the company maintains a directly employed workforce of hundreds of trained craftsmen covering structural, electrical, and mechanical disciplines, which it cites as the mechanism for schedule, budget, and quality control and as protection against subcontractor non-performance.
The business is project-based and bid-driven. HATCO earns revenue through competitive tenders and direct negotiation on contracts ranging from telecommunications site builds (tower erection, fiber optics, BTS sites, exchange buildings for STC and Mobily) to large commercial and institutional construction (75,000 sqm Arab National Bank head office, 19,000 sqm Saudi Fund for Development Annex, university campuses, Ministry of Culture and Information studios). Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting developers, government ministries, and large enterprises, supported by a vendor registration portal at vendor.hatco.com.sa and an official website presence. Notable current engagements include subcontractor roles on the Riyadh Metro Line 3 Package 2 (with BACS Consortium and ANM), a joint venture with First Gulf Company on the Dammam TV Complex, the STC TEP6 New Exchange Buildings rollout covering 10 buildings across Saudi Arabia, and main contractor status on the Sahayeb Data Centers project with Al Moammar Information Systems as EPC partner.
Operational maturity is evidenced by an unusually broad certification stack: ISO 9001:2015 (Quality, 2016), ISO 14001:2015 (Environment, 2017), OHSAS 18001:2007 (Occupational Health & Safety, 2017) later upgraded to ISO 45001:2018 (2021), ISO 27001 (Information Security), and the Saudi Aramco Cybersecurity Compliance Certification (SACS-002). HATCO is structured as a closely held limited liability company with no disclosed external investors, no parent entity, no subsidiaries, and no public funding history; ownership details and consolidated revenue figures are not publicly disclosed. The company is actively operating as of the latest available information.
