Allahdad Khan Construction Co. is a PEC-licensed building and civil engineering contractor in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, building since 1980. Remote services are run by the same company, with the same engineers and the same standards.
Can I hire just one person?
Yes. Hire one dedicated estimator, coordinator or engineer who works only for your business. Add more people later if the work grows.
What hours will they work?
Yours. Your hire keeps the working hours you set, so they are online when your team is.
Which software do you work in?
Bluebeam, PlanSwift, Excel, AutoCAD, Revit, Procore, MS Project and Buildertrend. If you use something else, tell us in your brief.
Do you stamp or seal drawings?
No. All work is produced for your review and your stamp. We do not seal drawings outside Pakistan.
How is pricing worked out?
It depends on the roles, the hours and how many people you need. Send us a brief and we will reply with a quote.
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes. In Pakistan we work on defence projects under security clearance, so keeping drawings, numbers and client details private is routine for us.
