TABUK — The Red Sea Development Company (TRSDC) was awarded by Bureau Veritas, the world-leading testing, inspection, and certification conglomerate, the ISO 9001:2015 certification for quality management, the first in the Middle East to be recognized as implementing the world's standards of design and construction of assets.

The TRSDC’s approach to design and construction awarded TRSDC with the ISO 9001:2015 certification in recognition of its excellent quality management systems, which enable the company to deliver robust projects to the highest international standards.

To mark the occasion, CEO of TRSDC John Pagano said, "Developing a quality management system quickly has been critical as we deliver a multi-billion-dollar giga project from the foundations up. The company’s quality management systems have been under development since the inception of the company in 2018.

“TRSDC has continued to improve its approach, integrating its construction management platforms across the business allowing for greater oversight on various projects from the planning, design, and construction stages.

“This has allowed it to identify issues more rapidly, improve workflows and automate with best-in-class technology. The approach is unique for a development of this scale and size, and a major contributor to TRSDC’s success."

For his part, Chief Projects Delivery Officer at TRSDC Ian Williamson said "This certification is a tribute to the considerable efforts made to integrate quality systems across all platforms within project delivery.

“We wanted the certification to evidence we have quality management policies, processes and procedures that are best in class and we intend to remain agile and continuously improve systems based on lessons learned.” — SPA
