Transforming construction

Acting Responsibly
As a leading Omani provider of construction services that has been operating in the Sultanate since 1981, Douglas OHI is dedicated to the long-term sustainable development of the industry.
With this in mind, wherever we operate, we’re committed to employing local people, working with local SME’s and developing local capabilities in order to deliver substainable commercial benefits for the country. We place a strong emphasis on growing the local economy, and believe it is our responsibility to invest in the communities and develop business that brings value to Oman through:
- Support and development of SME’s.
- Omanisation – training and development of national talent and capability.
- Corporate social responsibility – we believe that being a responsible business towards all our stakeholders and society is essential towards national success.
- Research and development – we are always looking at how we can innovate to create value for our stakeholders, the industry and the Sultanate.
