Building & Public Works

Areas of activity

Building & Public Works

Hospitals, institutional headquarters, housing, public facilities, roads and engineering structures.

Building and public works are D.I.D's historic core business. A BAT5-rated civil engineering and design-build contractor — the highest national qualification level — the company designs and delivers structures of every kind across the entire Mauritanian territory: hospitals and medical technical facilities, institutional headquarters, housing programmes, markets and public facilities, roads and engineering structures. Its wholly-owned plant — concrete batching, lifting, workshops — keeps every schedule under its own control.

  • Hospitals and healthcare facilities: university hospitals, specialised centres, regional hospitals, hospital technical packages (MEP & medical services)
  • Institutional buildings: agency headquarters, assemblies, government offices
  • Housing: large-scale social and mid-range housing programmes
  • Urban facilities: markets, covered market halls, schools, health centres
  • Roads, rural tracks and engineering structures

Building & Public Works

Hospital construction

Hospital construction is the most demanding discipline in the building trade — and D.I.D's signature expertise. The company is currently building the Salman Bin Abdulaziz University Hospital in Nouakchott, financed by the Saudi Fund for Development and one of the largest hospital projects ever launched in Mauritania, together with the Oncology Hospital financed by the Ithar NGO and Qatar Charity.

It has already delivered the National Cardiology Centre for the Government of Mauritania and the Islamic Development Bank, the Sélibabi regional hospital in Guidimakha, and the full set of technical packages for the extension of the National Hospital Centre in Nouakchott: medical gases, air handling for sensitive areas, operating theatres fitted with ceiling pendants, hermetic doors and chilled-water production.

This end-to-end command — from structural works to biomedical equipment — makes D.I.D one of the few contractors in the sub-region able to hand over a fully operational hospital, turnkey.
