Project Domains & Technical Capabilities
Proven cross-functional delivery spanning structural calculations, digital PMO, TQM, and smart systems
1. Structural Engineering & Seismic Analysis
Structural design of 200+ buildings (steel and concrete), seismic evaluation of 1,000+ facilities in earthquake-affected areas, and construction supervision of 50+ educational facilities funded by UNICEF & ERRA.
2. Total Quality Management (TQM)
Institutionalizing corporate quality governance across 200+ active sites. Extensive expertise in SA8000, ISO 50001, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 13485, ISO 17025, Lean Six Sigma, Kaizen, and root cause analysis (RCA).
3. Digital PMO & Enterprise Controls
Established centralized Digital Project Management Office (PMO) for real-time monitoring of 500+ projects across cost, schedule, risk, and delivery metrics. Championed digital dashboards linking project data to executive KPIs, cutting reporting cycles by 40%.
4. BIM, IFC & Digital Twins
Implementation of modern engineering workflows, Building Information Modeling (BIM), IFC-based coordination, Common Data Environments (CDE), and multidisciplinary clash resolution for improved constructability.
5. Power Substations, HVDC & BESS
Quality management and inspection leadership for 100+ high-voltage substations (110kV/132kV/380kV), transmission line corridors, HVDC interconnections, and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) across Saudi Arabia.
6. Digital Auditing & Service Systems
Developed custom Digital Auditing System for ZATCA and end-to-end service cycle management program for Alfanar Engineering Services to manage equipment repairing and testing lifecycle.
PQMIS — Project & Quality Management Information System
Independently conceptualized, architected, and developed end-to-end by Engr. Waqar Ahmad Malik. A unified single source of truth for cost, schedule, risk, quality, and audit performance across large and complex project portfolios.
Integrates core project disciplines (scope, scheduling, cost control, risk) with comprehensive quality management and audit workflows, embedding ISO-aligned processes directly into operational execution.
Live tracking of quality objectives, non-conformance reports (NCRs), corrective and preventive actions (CAPA), and audit findings—ensuring quality governance is an intrinsic, proactive function.
Translates granular project data into actionable executive KPIs aligned with corporate goals. Enhanced transparency, reduced reporting cycles by ~40%, and enabled data-driven senior leadership decisions.
Serves as digital foundation for centralized Digital PMO, providing standardized workflows, governance checkpoints, and automated reporting across 500+ projects nationwide.
Successfully deployed across all Alfanar projects nationwide and extended as a marketable solution for external clients and auditors (such as ZATCA), accelerating NCR closures and sustaining full ISO certifications.
