Market overview
After 2019, there was a consistent year-on-year decline in contract awards in Qatar’s construction and transport sectors. The total value of awards in that year was $13.5bn, but by 2023 it had fallen to just over $1.2bn.
In 2024, the value of project contract awards increased to $1.7bn, bucking the downward trend in the market in the preceding four years.
Of last year’s figure, the construction sector accounted for contract awards of over $1.2bn, while transport contract awards were about $200m.
There are strategic projects in the bidding phase in Qatar worth more than $5bn, and these are expected to provide renewed impetus to the construction and transportation market, presenting opportunities for contractors in the near term.
