MAKKAH, Saudi Arabia—Hill International, a global leader in managing construction risk, has received a contract extension from the Jabal Omar Development Company (JODC) in connection with the Jabal Omar mixed-use development here. The one-year contract extension has an estimated value to Hill of approximately $13.8 million (SAR 51.7). The Jabal Omar development, situated on 57 acres, includes 37 towers with a total built-up area of 2.0 million square meters (21.5 million square feet) of space, including hospitality, residential, retail, commercial and religious facilities.
