Doha Metro Gold Line

Project Overview

Doha Metro Gold Line (Historic Line) comprising 13 underground stations and 16km of twin bore tunnels and being built to improve transportation and infrastructure across the city as a part Qatar’s 2030 National vision.

ATKINS has been appointed as a Lead Designer by the consortium of D&B contractors delivering the Gold Line on behalf of Qatar Railways Company.

TBH’s Role

TBH was engaged by ATKINS to prepare contract programme, establish project controls and planning systems and provide claims management services. This included:

• Preparing a programme review report and conducting meetings with the key stakeholders
• Reviewing and assessing the feasibility of main contractor’s programme and programme dates
• Identifying critical path and near critical activities to ensure the project meet the forecasted practical completion
• Providing expert advise and mitigation strategies on the potential delays
• Close monitoring of the progress of the project during project execution
• Preparation of Claims Reports on the project delays, disruption and assessment of additional cost incurred as a result of instructed changes

By establishing EVM System, monitoring and controlling the project team’s performance and advising on the impact of introducing change into the design programme have become more factual and efficient.

The TBH Difference 

The implementation of fully integrated programme and change management system not only helped ATKINS in bridging the gap between design and construction but also harnessed the stakeholder’s expectations on all levels and categories.
