First Gulf Company in Partnership with BMET to Bring the Kingdom’s First Certified Healthcare Technology Manager Pathway to Saudi Arabia
FGC and the Biomedical Engineering Technology Society (BMET) will sign a Memorandum of Understanding on 23 August, opening a globally recognized certification route for the professionals who manage Saudi Arabia’s healthcare technology.
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, First Gulf Company (FGC) has announced that it will introduce the first Certified Healthcare Technology Manager (CHTM) certification pathway in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in partnership with the Biomedical Engineering Technology Society (BMET). The two organizations will formalize their collaboration through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Sunday, 23 August 2026.
Awarded internationally by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI), CHTM is a globally recognized credential that validates the expertise required to manage the technology behind modern healthcare, the systems and medical equipment that clinical teams rely on every day.
Delivered together with BMET, the Kingdom’s professional body for biomedical engineering accredited by the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCFHS), the initiative will make this standard available to healthcare technology professionals in Saudi Arabia for the first time.
The pathway reflects FGC’s role as a trusted healthcare technology partner and its commitment to developing national talent in line with Saudi Vision 2030. Offered by AAMI, the pathway is being undertaken by Saudi engineers for the first time through FGC’s investment in advancing the capabilities of its Facility Management Division teams.
It is designed to raise the standard of how healthcare technology is managed and maintained across the Kingdom’s health facilities, strengthening the reliability of medical equipment and, ultimately, the quality-of-care patients receive.
