Oracle Aconex
Document control & project collaboration for mega-projects
Market position
The common-data-environment standard on Saudi giga-projects — Red Sea Global runs Aconex alongside Primavera across 23,000+ users. It handles the document control, RFIs, transmittals and multi-party collaboration that NEOM-scale work demands.
Saudi Arabia-specific note
A collaboration backbone for main contractors and project-management consultants on large projects, not a back-office system for small firms. ZATCA e-invoicing is handled separately by your accounting/ERP.

Typical Saudi Arabia pricing
Enterprise — quote-only (no public SAR pricing).
Why this matters for Saudi Arabia trades
Engineering practice requires Saudi Council of Engineers (SCE) registration; contractors need a MOMRAH classification grade to bid public work; permits run through Balady under the mandatory Saudi Building Code; and accounting/invoicing must integrate with ZATCA's Fatoora e-invoicing — so local software has to handle Arabic, SAR and 15% VAT.
Saudi construction & trades software selection is shaped by Vision 2030's giga-project boom (NEOM, Red Sea, Qiddiya, ROSHN), mandatory ZATCA e-invoicing (Fatoora), Arabic/RTL and Saudi-Riyal requirements, contractor classification (Grades 1–6), Saudi Building Code compliance, and Saudization (Nitaqat) labour rules.
