First Bit ERP and Oracle Primavera P6 are both Tier A. Compare the typical pricing shown for each below. The tier is not a quality ranking: weigh the pros, cons, pricing and Saudi Arabia-specific notes below against your trade and region.

First Bit ERP

Tier A · Listed

Construction ERP: project cost control, procurement, finance and payroll

First Bit, founded in Moscow, sells a construction ERP in Saudi Arabia from a Riyadh office and in the UAE from Dubai. Its modules cover project cost control, project management, procurement, accounting, taxes, HR and payroll, warehouse and equipment. First Bit says more than 2,000 Middle East companies have chosen it and that it sends ZATCA Phase 2 e-invoices to the Fatoora portal.

Pros

+ Built for construction firms: project cost control, procurement, equipment
+ ZATCA Phase 2 e-invoicing, VAT and WHT returns (per First Bit)
+ Arabic and English, with a Riyadh office
+ Cloud or on-premises deployment

Cons

− No public prices: quote based on users and implementation
− A full ERP needs implementation time and setup
− Heavier than a simple accounting app for small firms
− Evaluation is through a requested demo

Saudi Arabia note

First Bit says its Saudi version generates VAT and withholding-tax returns in ZATCA format and sends Phase 2 e-invoices to the Fatoora portal with digital signatures. Ask for a live demo of the Fatoora integration before you sign.

Typical Saudi Arabia pricing: Quote-based; no public prices. First Bit says cost depends on the number of users and implementation needs, and that the subscription includes updates, support, onboarding and training.

Oracle Primavera P6

Tier A · Listed

Oracle's project scheduling and portfolio management software

Oracle Primavera P6 comes as P6 EPPM (enterprise, cloud or on-premises) and P6 Professional, which Oracle describes as built for large-scale, multifaceted projects. Oracle sells cost and business-process control separately in Primavera Unifier. In January 2026 Oracle announced that Red Sea Global had selected Primavera P6 together with Aconex.

Pros

+ Planning and scheduling across projects, programs and portfolios
+ Cloud or on-premises deployment (P6 EPPM)
+ Links to Oracle's Unifier, Analytics and Aconex products
+ Selected by Red Sea Global in January 2026 (per Oracle)

Cons

− No public prices found: quote from Oracle or a partner
− Needs a trained planner to run well
− More than a small contractor usually needs
− Not an accounting or ZATCA e-invoicing tool

Saudi Arabia note

P6 suits planners at main contractors, consultants and project owners who run detailed programmes; Red Sea Global is one Saudi owner that selected it. If a tender or contract names a scheduling format, check the exact requirement in that document before you buy.

Typical Saudi Arabia pricing: Quote-based through Oracle or a partner; no price could be confirmed on Oracle's pages this run.
