RIYADH: An online portal has been launched that helps clients who want to hire an engineering company to find registered businesses that can provide the required services in specific areas of the kingdom besides mentioning the rates they charge.
Launched by the Saudi Council of Engineers, the portal (saudieng.sa) provides details of the providers of services such as surveying consultancy, design contracts, boundary supervision and turnkey contracts, local media reports said.
Abdel Nasser Al-Abdul Latif, the council’s secretary-general, said the new service will enhance competition and transparency among service providers, the report said.
Latif said the council continues to work to regulate the engineering sector in the kingdom, and improve the efficiency of digital services to make it easier for potential clients to find council-registered firms that meet their requirements.
