Building in Sudan since 2004
SHAA Engineering Enterprises is a multi-disciplinary engineering and construction firm based in Port Sudan with an operating office in Khartoum. We deliver construction, electrical, MEP, telecom, security and facilities work for UN agencies, embassies, banks and telecom operators.
One contractor from design to maintenance
SHAA was founded in 2004 and is registered with Sudan's Ministry of Justice under BN 56406. For more than twenty years we have worked for organisations with some of the strictest procurement standards anywhere, from UNDP and UNICEF to the US and British embassies.
We bring design, construction, commissioning and maintenance under one contract and one team, so clients deal with a single accountable party for the life of a project. Our engineers and architects bring between 8 and 30 years of experience each in civil, electrical and architectural work and project management.
All project documents, correspondence and reports are prepared in both English and Arabic, and we apply health, safety and environment procedures on every site.
