Johar Zaidi: Visionary Behind SeaCity Project Services
In the ever-evolving world of construction, where delays and disputes often derail even the most ambitious projects, one name stands as a force of precision and expertise – Johar Zaidi. A civil engineer by profession and a visionary by instinct, Zaidi has carved a path as one of the most formidable minds in the industry. His deep understanding of construction dynamics, paired with his razor-sharp intellect and entrepreneurial acumen, has earned him a reputation as a leader who transforms challenges into seamless solutions.
With over 40 decades of experience shaping large-scale infrastructure, Zaidi recognised a critical gap in the industry – efficient contract management and claims resolution. Construction projects often suffer from cost overruns, delays, and legal entanglements that threaten their success. To address this, he established a techno-legal consultancy called SeaCity Project Services, a consultancy dedicated to ensuring that projects navigate these complexities with efficiency.
At SeaCity, Zaidi leads a team of highly skilled engineers, contract specialists, and legal professionals. The consultancy specialises in contract management, construction claims, arbitration, EOT (extension of time), deviations, and COS (change of scope), offering end-to-end solutions tailored to the unique needs of each client. With partnerships extending to senior lawyers and legal experts, SeaCity has played a pivotal role in safeguarding the interests of national infrastructure projects worth over Rs 500 billion.
What sets Zaidi apart is his relentless drive to ensure that construction projects meet their contractual obligations, secure timely claims and avoid unnecessary legal battles. His consultancy does not merely advise—it actively resolves, strategises, and streamlines project execution, ensuring that stakeholders experience a seamless construction journey.
Beyond his technical expertise, Zaidi is a powerhouse of resilience and innovation. His ability to foresee challenges, negotiate strategically, and uphold fairness in the industry has positioned him as a trusted ally for developers, contractors, and infrastructure giants alike. Those who have worked with him describe him as a bull in the construction industry—unyielding, driven, and always ahead of the curve.
As SeaCity continues to expand its influence, Zaidi remains committed to his core mission: helping construction projects succeed against all odds. His journey is not just about business—it’s about redefining industry standards, ensuring accountability, and fostering a construction ecosystem that is efficient, just, and future-ready.
