Elm & Memar Construction (EMC) has received a Local Content Certificate from the Local Content & Government Procurement Authority (LCGPA). The certificate confirms a local content score of 47.4% for the financial year ended 31 December 2025, and remains valid until 31 July 2027.
What the score reflects
Local content measures the share of a company’s spending that goes into the Saudi economy: the Saudi workforce, locally sourced goods and services, and investment in local capability. EMC’s score was issued under LCGPA’s procedures, based on the company’s disclosure and a report from an approved audit firm.
For a design & build contractor, much of that share is decided on site, through the suppliers we source from, the subcontractors we engage, and the way each project team is built.
Building in Saudi Arabia. Investing in its capability.
Why it matters for project owners
Saudi procurement regulations allow government entities to take local content into account when evaluating bids. A certified score gives developers, consultants and procurement teams a verified figure to work with, issued by the authority responsible for it.
The certificate sits alongside EMC’s ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certifications, and reflects our continued contribution to building national capability in line with Saudi Vision 2030.
