Hill International, a global leader in managing construction risk, said it has won a contract from Health Assurance Hospitals Company (Dhaman) to manage the construction of two new hospitals in Kuwait.

Dhaman was established as a public-private partnership as part of Kuwait's National Healthcare Expansion Plan.

The three-year project and construction management services contract has an estimated value of KD3.9  million ($13.1 million), said a statement from the US-based company.

These projects entail the construction of 300-bed secondary care hospitals in Al Ahmadi and Al Jahra areas of Kuwait besides staff accommodation buildings and parking facilities.

On the contract win, Mohammed Al Rais, the regional president (Middle East) for Hill's project management group, said: "We look forward to helping Dhaman deliver these important hospital projects."

"We understand the importance of timely delivery for these types of healthcare facilities and we are confident that our team will meet or exceed all expectations," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
