In its issue dated August 25, 2025, Engineering News-Record (ENR) magazine—one of the world's leading publications in the construction and engineering sector—dedicated a detailed report to the performance and achievements of The Arab Contractors (Osman Ahmed Osman & Co.), which maintained its position among the Top 250 International Contractors for 2025. According to the international report, the company has successfully enhanced its position to advance to 93rd place globally, affirming its leadership as the first Egyptian and African construction company in the ranking. This significant progress reflects its standing as one of the major key players in international markets, particularly in the African continent and the Arab Gulf region. Strategy for Growth and International Expansion The prestigious magazine's report outlined the vision and strategy that led to this success. It quoted Eng. Ahmed El-Assar, Chairman of the company's Board of Directors, who emphasized that this achievement is the result of a long-term strategy focused on executing major, advanced projects in vital sectors such as transportation, roads, water and energy infrastructure, and urban development. Market Challenges and Risk Management The report also addressed global challenges facing the international contracting sector, including difficulties in securing financing and fluctuations in material prices and global supply chains. It highlighted how The Arab Contractors efficiently managed these challenges by enhancing its in-house engineering and manufacturing capabilities and diversifying its supplier base, ensuring the continuity of its projects within the scheduled timelines and budgets. Leadership Vision: The Secret to Over 70 Years of Continuity The magazine conveyed the vision of Eng. Ahmed El-Assar regarding the secret behind the company's continuity and success over more than 70 years in the markets of Africa and the Middle East. He clarified that this success requires "more than just technical expertise; it necessitates close coordination with government authorities, continuous market research, and a deep understanding of the political and economic landscape of each country." The report also emphasized the Chairman's view that "identifying promising opportunities and aligning them with national priorities is the key to the company's success" over past decades. This approach has made it a preferred partner for many governments in their national development projects. Highlighting the company's prominent international achievements, the magazine featured the Julius Nyerere Hydropower Plant in Tanzania as a prime example of The Arab Contractors' engineering and execution capabilities. The plant's final turbine was activated in April 2025, executed in a joint venture with Elsewedy Electric. This mega-project required 2.6 million cubic meters of concrete and 4 million cubic meters of excavation, achieving a total installed capacity of 2.1 GW. This significantly boosts Tanzania's power sector and translates the company's strategic vision of supporting infrastructure development across the African continent. In conclusion, the prestigious international report affirmed the position of The Arab Contractors as one of the leading global engineering companies capable of competing internationally, managing complex projects, and effectively contributing to development goals in the countries where it operates. This success reinforces the stature of the Egyptian industry and elevates its name on the global contracting map.
