Ho should I go about this.

Hi there! I won a bid to construct a CHIP compound and the terms of the contract stated that I was to receive a mobilization certificate of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$200,000.00). Now issuing it to me has been refused. I later learnt of the issuance of the certificate to someone else. Kindly advise me of the legal issues herein and the next step(s) I can can take. Thanks in advance.

If you won a bid to construct a project, but the owner then decided to go with another contractor - it's possible you could be entitled to damages. This is especially true if you executed a contract with the project owner. Claims like breach of contract, lost profits, etc. might be available, among others. What's more, simply threatening to pursue legal claims might help when negotiating a settlement. With that being said, potential claims will be highly dependent on the language of the documents that wee signed, as well as other communications and circumstances. So, for guidance on what claims to pursue, seeking out a Missouri construction attorney would be useful. They'll be able to review your situation and advise on what claims may be available.
