About the company
James L. Williams (JLW) is one of the leading main contracting companies in Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) in the Gulf region, specializing in designing and delivering complex infrastructure where precision is crucial.
James L. Williams (JLW) was established in 2007 as a Middle Eastern extension of one of Australia's oldest service contracting companies, founded in 1875. JLW has deliberately evolved from a specialized MEP subcontractor to one of the region's prominent main EPC contractors, with a strong focus on data center infrastructure.
In 2024, JLW joined Al Awael, a subsidiary of the Rashid Abdulrahman Al Rashid and Sons (RAR) Group, one of the most respected and diversified business groups in Saudi Arabia. This partnership enhances JLW's ability to expand within Saudi Arabia and beyond, by combining Al Rashid's market reach with JLW's technical leadership and operational independence.
JLW operates throughout the United Arab Emirates, GCC countries, and the broader Middle East and North Africa region. It continues to integrate global expertise with regional vision. As large-scale data center projects increase, JLW contributes to shaping the future of vital infrastructure in the region.
