Azizi Developments, a leading private developer in the UAE, has announced that its IT Transformation Programme, which is part of its Digital Business Transformation Programme, has achieved hard savings of 63 per cent as well as reduced its IT Cost per Employee from $2,831 to $2,051. 

 

The transformational programme consisted of six projects including cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity enhancements, information risk assessments, network operation centre scalability, and robotic process automation. 

 

It was designed to enhance the overall performance while mitigating the risks involved for a better performing year.

 

Chief Information Officer Dr Syed Mahsud Ali said: “Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, our march towards our ultimate goal was not deterred. Our IT Transformation Programme was launched during the new-normal, but our team was already remarkably productive during the initial stages of the pandemic, as we were well prepared for the WFH (work from home) situation, allowing us to work outstandingly time- and cost-efficiently."

 

"We were successful in forecasting the impacts and the resulting needs of the pandemic, as well as the upcoming challenges, at least 3 weeks before the lockdown was actually implemented. This preparedness from an IT point-of-view enabled the entire organisation to operate smoothly throughout, all while getting more work done at substantially lower costs,” he added.-TradeArabia News Service
