In facility management it staffs new handovers, contract ramp-ups and seasonal peaks, with technicians whose trade experience is verified and shift supervisors matched to the service level agreement of the site. Every engagement is structured around Ajeer, Qiwa and Nitaqat requirements, so Facility Management employers in NEOM can plan headcount with the compliance position in view.

Manpower Supply demand in NEOM's Facility Management sector
Facility operations follow the construction crews: as districts and camps come into use, soft services and hard services move in, covering camp management, catering, housekeeping, MEP maintenance and waste handling, then building operation as handovers occur. In a remote location, a facility team also covers tasks a city would outsource, such as utility rounds, kitchen cold-chain checks and pest control, so multi-skilled technicians are valued. Any resort or hotel handover adds hospitality-grade presentation standards to routine maintenance.
Where we support Facility Management employers in NEOM
Facility Management demand in NEOM centres on the zones, projects and institutions below, and we support employers operating in and around them.
- Construction camps and worker accommodation
- Sindalah island
- NEOM Bay Airport
- Oxagon
What shapes Facility Management workforce planning in NEOM
- Rental housing around the sites is limited, so most crews live in contractor camps or project accommodation. Confirm bed allocation, camp standards and who bears the accommodation cost before mobilising anyone, because these terms decide whether a supply plan is deliverable.
- Remote sites make travel part of the programme: flights to NEOM Bay Airport or road transfers from Tabuk, site-access approvals, induction and medical clearance all precede the first shift. Fixed-leave rotations are common, so build replacement cover in.
- Expect surges when packages are awarded and pauses when scopes are reprioritised, not a steady annual cycle.
- Summer heat on the coast and the seasonal midday outdoor-work ban shape shift patterns, while Trojena is cooler because of its elevation.
- Supervisory Saudization: finding Saudi supervisors, planners and helpdesk staff with genuine FM experience rather than only the title, and keeping them through the first contract cycle.
- SLA-driven contracts: penalties for missed response and rectification times turn a poorly matched technician into an immediate commercial risk.

Manpower Supply for Facility Management in NEOM: our delivery process
Our delivery process for Facility Management in NEOM
Scope the workforce request
We confirm trades, quantities, start dates, shift patterns and site rules, then agree which roles suit a managed contract and which suit an Ajeer transfer.
Source and trade-test candidates
Candidates are screened against the trade list, with practical tests or document checks for licensed roles. You receive profiles and can reject any worker before contracting.
Contract and register
The commercial contract is signed and employment contracts are documented on Qiwa. Where Ajeer applies, the transfer-of-services contract is raised and approved before workers start.
Mobilise to site
Iqamas, insurance and GOSI registration are confirmed, then workers are inducted, issued PPE and moved to site with transport and accommodation arranged.
Supervise and report monthly
A named coordinator handles absences, replacements and disputes. Timesheets are reconciled monthly and invoiced against the agreed rate card.
Renew, rotate or demobilise
Before contract end we renew iqamas and permits, rotate workers on request, or close out the Ajeer transfer and settle end-of-service entitlements.
Reaching NEOM: gateways and travel planning for Facility Management
Key gateways and transport links serving NEOM include NEOM Bay Airport, the air gateway to the NEOM area; Port of NEOM at Oxagon, for sea-borne cargo; and Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz International Airport in Tabuk, and the road corridor from Tabuk. For Facility Management assignments we plan travel and start dates around these entry points so that onboarding fits your programme.
Other cities we serve include Tabuk, Yanbu, Madinah and Jeddah.
Manpower Supply for Facility Management in NEOM: Saudi regulatory requirements
Regulatory requirements for Manpower Supply in NEOM
Ajeer transfer-of-services contract
Temporary supply between establishments is recorded on the Ajeer platform, with the contract approved by both parties. Check that the provider is authorised for this activity, and that contract terms match the work actually performed.
Qiwa employment contracts
Each worker’s employment contract should be documented on Qiwa under the provider’s establishment. This fixes the job title, wage and term, and lets the client verify that supplied workers hold valid, recorded contracts.
Wage protection through Mudad
Salaries must be paid on time through bank transfer and recorded in the Wage Protection System on Mudad. Ask for payroll evidence, since unpaid wages on a supplied crew quickly turn into site disruption.
GOSI and medical insurance
The employer must register workers with GOSI and keep valid private medical insurance for them. Request current GOSI and insurance evidence before mobilisation, particularly when contractors are audited on site.
Iqama and work-permit upkeep
Iqama issuance and renewal run through Muqeem, alongside work-permit renewal. A lapsed iqama or a worker employed outside the registered job title can expose the client to fines, so renewal dates should be tracked.
Nitaqat and Saudization impact
Supplied workers remain employees of the provider, so they should not be relied on to meet the client’s own Saudization obligations under Nitaqat. Confirm the current MHRSD rules with your advisers before planning headcount around supply.
Credentials we screen for in Facility Management
- IFMA Certified Facility Manager (CFM) and related IFMA credentials for facility managers and senior supervisors.
- ISO 41001 facility management systems and ISO 45001 occupational health and safety, often referenced in client prequalification and tender requirements.
- NEBOSH and OSHA safety qualifications for HSE officers, supervisors and technicians working on live sites and at height.
- Verified trade qualifications and experience for MEP, HVAC, electrical, plumbing and fire-system technicians.
- Saudi Council of Engineers registration and professional classification for mechanical, electrical and building-services engineers.
- General Directorate of Civil Defence requirements for fire alarm, suppression and life-safety systems, and licensing rules for private security services.

NEOM's business landscape: context for Manpower Supply in Facility Management
NEOM is a giga-project on the north-west Red Sea coast of the Tabuk Region, developed as a set of distinct regions rather than a single town. Oxagon, The Line, Trojena and Sindalah each carry their own scope and delivery cycle, and the programme is being reprioritised, so employer requirements move with each work package. Demand comes mainly from contractors, developers and operators working to NEOM-issued standards, not from a conventional local labour market.
The surrounding area has a relatively sparse local population, so most of the workforce is mobilised in from other regions and from abroad, housed in camps or project accommodation and onboarded through NEOM contractor processes. Manpower planning here is as much a logistics question as a hiring one: transport, accommodation, site access and Saudization targets under Nitaqat all need to be settled before crews arrive.
Key areas in NEOM for Facility Management employers
The Line
Linear urban development whose scope is being reworked; demand here comes from civil, structural and MEP contractors, and depends on which packages are active.
Oxagon
Industrial and port-led region; relevant for marine civil works, port and logistics operations and process-plant skills.
Trojena
Mountain destination in development; remote-site construction first, with resort and operations hiring depending on how the programme is phased.
Sindalah
Island resort destination; hospitality and facility-service requirements for a marina and resort setting, to be confirmed project by project.
Frequently asked questions
Who staffs the construction camps around NEOM?
Camp operations such as housekeeping, catering, laundry, maintenance and security are usually sub-contracted by the main contractor or the camp operator, and the staffing is supplied under that sub-contract. Scope and headcount vary by package, so request the camp service specification and accommodation standard first, then plan supervisors, shift patterns and replacement cover around it.
Can Manpower Supply cover 24/7 shift rosters for a facility in NEOM?
Yes. Rosters are built around the shift pattern of the site, typically three shifts with relief cover for leave and absence. Teams are scoped against the service level agreement, with a supervisor planned for each shift and an agreed replacement route for no-shows, so that critical areas such as plant rooms and control rooms are not left uncovered.
How are supplied technicians cleared to work on our site under Ajeer?
Temporary supply between establishments runs through the Ajeer platform, which records the placement and the worker details. Before mobilisation, the iqama, GOSI registration and wage-payment records are checked and the experience of trade technicians is verified, so that the compliance file of the client can be complete from the first shift.
Who is the employer of supplied workers in NEOM?
The provider remains the employer of record. It pays salaries through Mudad, maintains GOSI and medical insurance, and renews iqamas through Muqeem. The client directs daily work on site within the contract scope and does not run payroll for these workers.
