01 August 2012

AECOM has won a $27.85-million contract to provide architecture and engineering services for King Khalid Medical City in Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

When complete, the medical city will include a 1,500-bed hospital, research centre, accommodation, a conference centre, mosque, office building, car-parks and a community centre.

Plans also include the potential for future educational facilities, a commercial complex and a hotel.

The project is the largest of four planned hospital developments that have been initiated by a royal decree from King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, who has allocated $4.3 billion for healthcare centres.

Work on the two-year contract starts immediately, and project completion is scheduled within five years.
