King Salman International Airport Development Company (KSIADC), which is backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, has allowed firms until 28 May to submit proposals for a contract to develop the first phase of Terminal 6 and the Iconic Terminal of King Salman International airport (KSIA) in Riyadh. The tender notice was issued on 17 April. The previous submission deadline was 15 May. The client plans to deliver the package on an early contractor involvement (ECI) basis. The ECI process requires selected contractors to submit methodologies for the project and a design proposal. In May,  US firm Bechtel Corporation has confirmed that it has been appointed as the delivery partner for the terminals at KSIA in Riyadh. Bechtel will manage the delivery of three new terminals, including the terminal for commercial carriers, Terminal 6 for low-cost carriers and a new private aviation terminal with hangars. This was followed by an announcement from another US-based firm, Parsons Corporation, confirming their appointment as the delivery partner for the airside and landside packages at KSIA. In February, KSIADC had received prequalification statements from firms on 28 January for the project. The client prequalified firms in September 2024 for the main engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) packages; early and enabling works; specialist systems and integration; specialist systems, materials and equipment; engineering and design; professional services; health, safety, security, environment and wellbeing services; modular installation and prefabrication; local content; environmental, social and governance (ESG); and other services. The entire scheme is divided into eight assets. These are: Iconic Terminal Terminal 6 Private aviation terminal Central runway and temporary apron Hangars Landside transport Cargo buildings Real estate In August last year, KSIADC confirmed that it had signed up several architectural and design firms for the various elements of the project.  KSIADC said that UK-based Foster+Partners will design the airport’s masterplan, including the terminals, six runways and a multi-asset real estate area. US-based engineering firm Jacobs will provide specialist consultancy services for the masterplan and the design of the new runways. The client also confirmed the appointment of UK-based engineering firm Mace for the delivery partner role on the project. The airspace design consultancy contract was awarded to local firm Nera.   For registration as a supplier: https://www.pif.gov.sa/en/vendor-gate/     (ICE RIYADH)
