Project Planning, Execution & Risk Management as per Omani Construction Standards (Oman Tender Board, MoTC & Housing Department Guidelines)
Language: ENGLISH
Instructors: BHADANIS Gulf Training Division
Validity Period: 365 days
Why this course?
The Sultanate of Oman stands today as one of the Gulf’s most structured and methodical construction markets, driven by precise government regulations, detailed tendering protocols, and an ever-growing demand for public infrastructure, housing, and industrial development. To manage such projects effectively, engineers, project managers, and contractors must deeply understand Omani construction standards, Tender Board processes, Ministry of Transport and Communications (MoTC) regulations, and Housing Department guidelines.
This professional course titled “Project Planning, Execution & Risk Management as per Omani Construction Standards” is specifically designed to equip civil engineers, quantity surveyors, planners, and construction managers with a complete understanding of how to plan, execute, and control construction projects under Oman’s official regulatory framework.
The program focuses on real-life documentation practices, approval procedures, project execution norms, and the essential planning and risk management methods adopted across government and semi-government projects. Every section of this course integrates practical application and compliance with the Oman Tender Board procedures, MoTC technical standards, and the Ministry of Housing & Urban Planning (MoHUP) project guidelines.
The Omani construction industry operates within a highly organized structure. Every tender, drawing submission, and project report must comply with the Oman Tender Law, MoTC standards, and various ministerial procedures. Contractors and consultants working without understanding these frameworks often face project delays, financial disputes, non-compliance rejections, or payment certification issues.
This course acts as a complete practical guide, simplifying how to:
Prepare and submit documents that align with Tender Board formats.
Develop project schedules that satisfy client and consultant milestones.
Manage risks under Omani conditions — from desert climate disruptions to material approvals.
Prepare progress, quality, and payment reports in accepted templates.
Ensure compliance during audits and handover inspections.
By completing this program, professionals become capable of handling all phases of government and private construction projects in Oman — from pre-tender planning to post-handover documentation.
