PMIS for capital projects · GCC & MENA
The region's leading PMIS partner for capital projects.
CMCS has one focus: digitalizing the delivery of capital construction projects. We bring PMWEB, the project management information system at the core of that delivery, to owners, developers, government entities and their PMCs, and we connect it to the applications that make it deliver more.
Data is entered once, in the PMIS, and governed once.
Why CMCS
We deliver. In this region, that is a must.
Licensing a PMIS is the easy part. Owners in the Gulf need a partner that sees the implementation through to adoption, stays with them through every release, and is still there when the next programme starts. Our ability to deliver rests on six foundations.
PMWEB Global Partner of the Year 2025, with a voice in the PMWEB roadmap
Unlike many products, PMWEB develops its new features from what its clients ask for. PMWEB acknowledges CMCS for its capabilities and listens to us, so our MENA clients' needs reach the roadmap: PMWEB has already made many improvements for them. PMWEB also protects its partners rather than setting them against each other on price, so we never have to cut corners or costs to win, and your success is never put at risk to make a deal.
40+ years delivering construction projects
Our team comes from construction project management, including large PMC firms. We understand the business, its pain and how to resolve it. Our management has written four books and the 180 articles in the 25 series on this website on how a PMIS is used in the construction industry.
170+ PMIS implementations across the Gulf and the Middle East
CMCS has been part of the region's most significant capital programmes, from giga-projects and master developments to government portfolios and airports.
Implementing PMWEB since 2012
Our PMWEB implementation team has delivered PMWEB since 2012, and our core team has been with CMCS for more than 15 years. The consultants who configure your PMWEB are the ones who support, upgrade and extend it.
Clients who stay with CMCS for 10+ years, or until their portfolio is complete
Many of our clients have been with CMCS for more than 10 years, or stayed with us until the project portfolio for which PMWEB was selected was completed. They continue to work with CMCS long after go-live, through annual support, upgrades to each new PMWEB release and new solutions on the PMWEB they already run.
40+ years digitalising construction in the region
CMCS was the partner for Primavera Systems that brought Primavera to the Middle East in 1984, and has won 55 awards for performance and achievement.
New AI for PMIS delivery

Our focus
One focus. The digital delivery of capital projects.
We spent four decades managing and controlling capital projects. Today that experience goes into one thing: putting an owner's delivery processes into a PMIS that the owner's team, its PMC and its contractors work in every day.
PMWEB is the core. Everything else we offer either delivers the PMIS, or connects an application that makes it more valuable.
What we do
- License PMWEB as its Authorized Implementation Partner
- Configure it to your processes and DoA matrix
- Integrate it with your ERP and enterprise applications
- Train your teams, support the system and keep it current
What we don't do
- Provide project-controls staff or PMC services. We equip the teams who do.
- Compete with your consultants. PMC firms are our partners.
- Write custom code. PMWEB is configured, not coded.
The PMIS core
PMWEB: one system of record, from approved estimate to final account.
Every commercial event on a capital project becomes a structured record in PMWEB, linked to the one before it. That chain is what makes reporting live, audits simple and claims defensible.
Cost & commitments
Estimates, budgets, budget requests, contracts, purchase orders and invoices against one cost structure.
Contract administration
FIDIC notices, RFIs, submittals, instructions, change and claims captured as records, not emails.
Governance
Workflows that enforce your delegation of authority, with a complete audit trail.
Portfolio insight
Dashboards from portfolio to project, and AI that works on structured data.
Connected applications
Applications that make the PMIS deliver more.
Every application we add passes one test: does it strengthen what the PMIS delivers? Each one connects to PMWEB, so data is entered once and governed once.
ERP
SAP, Oracle, Dynamics and government ERPs, kept in step with every commitment and certified invoice.
Time & riskScheduling
Primavera P6 schedules linked to cost and change; Safran for schedule risk analysis.
IntelligenceAI
Gryps forecasting and document intelligence, and askAIRO answers across PMWEB and your ERP.
Design & documentsBluebeam
Markup, review and quantity take-off for design and construction teams.
