How MSQ Mobilized 120 Skilled Workers in Just 48 Hours for a Lusail Mega-Project – Real Case Study

Introduction When a leading EPC contractor in Qatar suddenly received a 10-day extension on a high-rise tower in Lusail, they faced a serious problem: They needed an additional 120 skilled and semi-skilled workers within 48 hours — or risk millions in liquidated damages (LDs).

Most manpower agencies said “impossible.” MSQ said “challenge accepted.”

Here’s the exact step-by-step story of how we delivered the full team — 100% compliant, medically fit, with QIDs in hand — in under 48 hours.


The Urgent Requirement (Friday 9:30 PM)

  • Project: 55-storey mixed-use tower, Lusail Marina District
  • Required by: Monday 6:00 AM (site induction)
  • Breakdown of workers needed:
    • 35 Masons (block + plaster)
    • 30 Steel Fixers (Qatar Steel approved)
    • 25 Carpenters (formwork specialists)
    • 20 General Helpers
    • 10 Safety Officers (NEBOSH IGC certified)

All workers had to have:

  • Valid QID or entry visa already stamped
  • GAMCA medical completed
  • CID clearance
  • Client-specific safety training (or willing to attend emergency induction)

How MSQ Delivered in 48 Hours – The 8-Step Process

Step 1 – Immediate Response (within 15 minutes) Our 24/7 emergency team acknowledged the request at 9:45 PM and assigned a dedicated mobilization manager.

Step 2 – Instant Database Match We ran the requirement against our ready-to-deploy pool of 1,400+ pre-screened workers. Within 40 minutes we shortlisted 182 candidates that matched skills + documentation status.

Step 3 – Client Approval of CVs (Saturday 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM) Sent categorized CV packs via WhatsApp and email. Client approved 135 candidates by 10:30 AM.

Step 4 – Emergency Medical & Trade Tests (Saturday 11:00 AM – 6:00 PM) Workers who needed final medical or trade test refreshers were sent to approved GAMCA clinic and in-house testing centre. All completed same day.

Step 5 – Documentation Sprint (Saturday evening) Our PRO team prepared:

  • Employment contracts
  • Insurance enrollment
  • Client-specific access forms
  • QID copies packaged per trade

Step 6 – Safety Induction Crash Course (Sunday 7:00 AM – 2:00 PM) Conducted emergency 4-hour safety + site orientation for all 120 workers at our Doha training centre.

Step 7 – Transport & PPE Issuance (Sunday 3:00 PM – 8:00 PM)

  • 4 coaster buses arranged
  • Full PPE kits issued (helmet, boots, gloves, coveralls, safety glasses)
  • Lunch boxes & water provided

Step 8 – On-Site Delivery (Monday 5:00 AM) All 120 workers arrived at Lusail site at 5:00 AM — one hour before induction. Zero no-shows. Zero documentation issues.

Result

  • Project extension completed on time
  • Client saved estimated QAR 4.2 million in potential LDs
  • All workers passed client audit on Day 1
  • 85% of the team still working on the same project today (Dec 2025)

Client Testimonial “Frankly, we didn’t believe it was possible. MSQ not only delivered 120 workers in 48 hours — they delivered the right workers, fully compliant and ready to work from minute one. They literally saved our project.” — Senior Project Manager, Tier-1 EPC Contractor (name withheld for confidentiality)

Why Only a Few Agencies Can Do This This kind of ultra-fast mobilization is only possible when you have:

  • A large, pre-vetted, ready-to-move workforce (we maintain 800–1,400 workers on standby)
  • In-house PRO, medical, training, and transport teams
  • ISO 9001:2015 certified processes
  • 15+ years of trust with clinics, immigration, and clients
