Turning visions into reality. A fountain of expertise in construction, engineering, project management, and sustainability, Astad is closely involved with a number of large-scale developments in Qatar. The company is currently putting the finishing touches to the National Museum of Qatar, a landmark-in-waiting shaped in the form of a desert rose and built around the palace of the former ruler of the country. Astad provides project and construction management services to the builders of the museum.
Astad’s bulging portfolio contains iconic projects such as the construction of Qatar’s new Petroleum District – a cluster of nine high-rise office towers and a luxury hotel. Astad is also helping erect the Qatar Foundation Stadium – home to the 2022 FIFA World Cup and the first large-scale open sports arena that employs advanced cooling techniques.
Astad has developed an approach to project management that engages all stakeholders and ensures short lines of communication that facilitate and encourage collaboration, pooling ideas and ensuring that the client’s vision is turned into reality.
The firm adheres to a strict code of ethics and is committed to maintain the highest standard of services. Astad also adopts international best practices in the management of quality, risk, and health and safety.
The CFI.co judging panel commends the firm on its achievements. Noting Astad’s sustained progress, the judges are pleased to offer the company the 2017 Best Infrastructure Project Management Team GCC Award – the second time Astad is recognised for its operational excellence.
