Hospital construction is big business in the region.

Along with roads and public housing, healthcare is currently a key driver of construction activity in the region. Here are six active healthcare projects that you should be involved in.

1. Sidra Medical and Research Centre
Location: Qatar
Value: US $2.3 billion
Client: Qatar Foundation

Scope: The project calls for construction of Sidra Medical and Research Centre in Qatar. Located in Doha on Qatar Foundation’s 2,500 acre Education City campus, Sidra Medical and Research Centre is expected to open in 2012. It will initially have 412 beds with infrastructure to enable expansion to 550 beds in a subsequent phase. The centre will also be home to 350 resident nurses.

Schedule: A joint venture between OHL Construction and Contrack International was awarded the main construction contract in 2008. Construction is in progress and expected to be completed in early 2012. Keo International Consultants is managing construction, while Pelli Clarke Pelli is the design architect.

Next: Cleveland Clinic
