Market position
ProTenders, operated by NuServ Ltd and launched in 2011 according to its about page, is a construction platform for developers, consultants, contractors and suppliers with offices in Abu Dhabi and Montreal.

Why this matters for Qatar trades
The Ministry of Finance’s Monaqasat portal requires classification, with an audited balance sheet, before a company can take part in government tenders. The General Tax Authority administers income tax (10%), withholding tax and excise tax through its Dhareeba portal; Qatar has no VAT as of September 2026, and EY reports that the GTA will run e-invoicing under the draft law. Law No. 12 of 2024 requires employers to report vacancies and salaries to the Ministry of Labour and to fill designated jobs with Qatari nationals. The Ministry of Municipality issues building permits through an AI-based system launched in October 2025; QCS 2014 applies to all buildings under construction, according to The Peninsula, with Ashghal adding Interim Advice Notes on its own projects; and Kahramaa publishes lists of authorized electrical and water contractors and licenses solar PV contractors.
Qatar construction and trades software selection is shaped by Monaqasat classification for government tenders, the Qatar Construction Specifications (QCS 2014), Ashghal’s tendering and prequalification for public works, the Qatarization law (Law No. 12 of 2024), and the tax position: Qatar has not introduced VAT, and a draft e-invoicing law approved on 6 May 2026 had no official go-live date by 30 September 2026.
