Why Understanding MOI, SEC, and Royal Commission Guidelines is Essential for Every Construction Project Manager in Saudi Arabia

If you’re managing a construction project in Saudi Arabia, you already know that technical skills alone aren’t enough. The real challenge lies in understanding and complying with the guidelines of the Ministry of Interior (MOI), the Saudi Electricity Company (SEC), and the Royal Commission (RC). These three authorities are the backbone of every construction approval — and if you don’t know how they work, even the best-managed project can face costly delays.

The MOI ensures your design meets fire safety, emergency access, and security standards. The SEC handles power design, transformer sizing, metering, and energization approvals. And the Royal Commission oversees planning, zoning, infrastructure, and final acceptance for cities like Jubail and Yanbu. Each has its own submission requirements, inspection timelines, and approval stages — and missing even one step can hold your project hostage.

That’s why every project manager needs to be authority-smart, not just technically sound. You must know when to apply for NOCs, how to prepare documents in the correct format, and how to coordinate between departments without creating conflicts or rework.
