Powering National Visions

10 Jun 2025

In a region shaped by transformation and large-scale nation building, we’ve established ourselves as one of the Middle East’s most influential consultancies in strategic project delivery.  A little over a decade since founding, Compass has grown from a boutique firm into a regional partner known for navigating complexity and delivering commercially focused outcomes with precision. 

Our momentum is reflected in the recognition of our Chairman, Nawfal Al Khudhairy, who appears in Construction Week’s Power 150 for the third year running.  It’s a mark of his leadership and our growing regional presence. Headquartered in Riyadh, with active operations across Saudi Arabia and the UAE, we are proud to be delivering projects that contribute directly to national development goals. Our current portfolio carries a combined value in the billions. 

In Saudi Arabia, we are working within some of the Kingdom’s most strategic destinations.  This includes infrastructure delivery at NEOM, program management at Qiddiya, and cost strategy across major developments including ROSHN, SEVEN and King Salman Park.  These projects are central to the realisation of Vision 2030, and we are proud to be part of their progress. 

Every project we deliver is a contribution to something greater, realising the national vision through excellence in project delivery.

In the UAE, we continue to support high-profile developments such as Reem Mall and Expo City.  We also deliver bespoke work including the VVIP penthouse at Atlantis The Royal.  Our relationships with developers such as Nakheel, ZAAD, Dubai Holding and RAK Properties reflect the strength of our delivery and the trust we have earned. 

With more than 200 professionals across the region, we bring local insight together with advanced delivery tools.  Our use of real-time dashboards and data-led forecasting helps clients manage complexity and move forward with confidence.  Through our Compass Academy, we are also investing in the next generation of Saudi talent with structured training and mentoring that supports long-term development. 

Earlier this year, we were certified a Great Place to Work® in both Saudi Arabia and Sri Lanka. This reflects the culture we’ve built, one where performance, progress, and people come together with clarity of purpose.
