Amer Khreino, CEO, Raqmiyat, elaborates on the 34-year-old firm’s plans to evolve into a next-generation services provider with deeper systems integration capabilities by 2020.
The systems integration space has evolved radically over the years. In the beginning, firms utilised a diverse set of monolithic systems to automate specific areas in the business operations. The integration aspect was largely a labour-intensive role. The industry has come a long way from then to today’s cloud era, which also means to survive and thrive, systems integration firms need to be agile and forward-thinking in their approach.
Having set up operations in the UAE 34 years ago, as a software development house, Raqmiyat, part of the Al Ghurair Group of Companies, has progressed into a solutions, services and consulting firm today. With four distinct business units - BFSI Solutions, Enterprise Technology Solutions, Smart Business Solutions, IT Infrastructure and IT Staffing Solutions – the company is aiming to become a next generation services provider with solid systems integration capabilities by 2020.
Amer Khreino, CEO, Raqmiyat, says, “Our end-to-end IT advisory capabilities clubbed with our project management expertise and project financing are differentiating our service offerings to customers. Raqmiyat capabilities are diverse and play a vital role in customers’ digital transformation plans.”
The company offers a wide range of enterprise technology solutions around cloud computing, cybersecurity and smart solutions leveraging IoT and analytics, as well as, business automation and optimisation solutions that cover mobility solutions, ERP, HCM, talent management, corporate performance management among others.
According to Khreino, cloud has been the biggest phenomenon for customers’ journey into digital transformation.
