01 October 2020
Riyadh Airports has awarded a key contract to Egis, a major international group in the construction engineering and mobility services, and its local subsidiary Projacs, to deliver project management consultancy services for airside projects at King Khalid International Airport (KKIA).
Riyadh Airports manages and operates KKIA in the Saudi capital and is currently working on upgrading the airport’s airside infrastructure.
As per the deal, Projacs will be project management consultant for design review, construction management and supervision of new airside infrastructure. Its scope of work includes the review and approval of contractors’ technical deliverables relating to infrastructure, airfield ground lighting (AGL), Navaids and an upgrade of baggage handling systems at Terminals 3 and 4.
Most of the airside infrastructure will be redeveloped, including the two runways, taxiways, cargo aprons and isolated parking positions. The entire AGL equipment and systems will be replaced by a LED lighting system with a dedicated IT control system.
Egis Executive Director (Aviation) Cédric Barbier said: “We have been working at Riyadh Airport for more than six years now, including on equipment and systems operations and maintenance contracts.”
“For this particularly large and complex project, we will mobilise a multi-skilled team of around 90 employees whose work will focus on delivering a sustainable development that complies with all the relevant international and national regulations, codes and standards.”
