Facilities are designed to the highest security requirements, compliance to all KSA  and relevant international building codes, and feature state-of-the-art technology. Our scope of work includes all facets of Civil/Structural Engineering, MEPF, Fit-out including, Construction, Commissioning and Uptime Institute Certification for Design (TCCF) and Construction (TCCF).

The Riyadh Facility is being commissioned and handed off to the client in 2022, and Jeddah by 2023. Design for the Data Center has already been TCCF certified for the Riyadh Facility, and we are currently working with Uptime to certify the Jeddah Data Center design as well. Both facilities will undergo Uptime Institute Certification for Constructed Facility (TCCF).
