Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: WakeCap, a Saudi-based workforce safety and productivity solution provider, acquired Frontline, an AI-powered construction planning platform, to expand its construction-tech platform by integrating capabilities for planning and execution optimization.

In a recent statement, WakeCap revealed that the acquisition will enable it to deepen customer relationships across the full project lifecycle, positioning the company at the intersection of AI, IoT, and the digital transformation of construction.

Frontline allows planners to run simulations and stress-test their schedules, so teams are confident in a plan that actually holds. It serves contractors and end clients across industrial, energy, and infrastructure construction.

Commenting on the acquisition, Hassan Albalawi, Co-Founder and CEO of WakeCap, said: “Construction’s hardest problem has never been a lack of data. It’s the drift between the plan and what happens on site. With Frontline, we turn project controls from reactive to predictive, and on the world’s most complex projects, that difference is measured in months and millions.”

For his part, Luis Martinez, CEO of Frontline, stated: “Together, we are creating something the industry has never had before: a continuous intelligence loop from the planning table all the way to the last worker on site. Joining WakeCap is a step toward the future we’ve always believed construction deserves.”

Delivering live visibility across every site, package, and contractor, WakeCap gives project owners a single source of truth across safety, workforce, and project controls. It operates across Saudi Arabia, the US, the UAE, and Brazil, with offices in Dammam, San Francisco, Dubai, and São Paulo.
