Saudi Power Procurement Company

Workplace context

This engagement concerns Saudi Power Procurement Company’s workplace in Riyadh’s King Abdullah Financial District. It is a corporate workplace deployment within a wider mixed-use district, where office buildings, transport, shared amenities and digital infrastructure form the surrounding setting. The scope belongs to SPPC’s workplace, rather than the district as a whole.

Smart technology scope

Preparing a corporate workplace for its smart technology launch

The new smart technologies are due to launch by the end of 2026. For a corporate workplace in a shared district, the brief needs to connect the employee and visitor experience with the organisation’s own systems, building services and support arrangements. The relevant planning questions are how people will use the service, which connections it depends on and who will operate it after launch.

• Employee and visitor journeys within the agreed workplace scope.
• The boundary between occupier systems, landlord services and district infrastructure.
• Readiness, onboarding and service ownership ahead of the planned launch.
