CMCS launches Qatar operations
Dubai, December 19, 2008
Collaboration, Management and Control Solutions (CMCS) has launched the latest addition to its regional operations, PMCS, during a road show held at the Doha Marriott Hotel in Qatar.
CMCS is a leading provider of project and portfolio management solutions and the exclusive authorised representative of Primavera Solution in the Middle East.
PMCS is the newest addition to CMCS’ expanding roster of regional branches. A few weeks ago the project management solution provider introduced a new sister company in Lebanon, PMAG, to deliver its impressive range of project management services, which include professional consultancy services, organisational project management maturity assessment, project management office set up and roll out, and development of integrated project management methodology and procedures, among others.
PMCS will offer the same services to Qatar’s rapidly growing project management market.
“As one of the richest countries in the Arab World, Qatar represents a key market in our regional expansion efforts. Engineering and construction projects will of course be prominent as oil is the cornerstone of Qatar’s economy, but the country’s aggressive diversification initiatives will allow us to offer our superior project and portfolio management services to a broader range of industries. Through state-of-the-art applications from Primavera Systems, we will offer clients in this region only the best integrated solutions for their project requirements,” said CEO and founder, CMCS, Bassam Samman.
CMCS has been conducting a series of road shows under the theme ‘Empowering Project Driven Businesses’ to enlighten participants on the benefits of integrated information system solutions for project management.
Around 120 professionals from various industries attended the introductory road show for PMCS, which emphasized the importance of Primavera Solution as well as Hard Dollar and Synchro software solutions.
Both Samman and Manager of Professional Services Syed Hasan presented the new company, with Hasan elaborating on the advantages and features of the solutions.
The success of the road show in Qatar can be gauged by the participation of high profile companies such as Barwa Holding and subsidiaries, Leighton Contracting ( Qatar) WLL, Limitless, Lusail, Motorola-Qatar, Public Works Authority (Ashghal), Qatar Financial Center Authority, Qatargas, Qatari Arabian Construction Company and United Development Company, among others.
Primavera Systems Inc. is the largest independent provider of collaborative project, resource and portfolio management solutions, with its cutting-edge software and services used by the Global 2000. In addition to Primavera, an integrated project portfolio management solution that provides a real-time view of projects, program and portfolio performance, PMCS will base its services and products on Hard Dollar, a cost management software linking estimation, scheduling and execution and Synchro, a four-dimension construction simulation and task management solution that synchronizes design, scheduling, supply chain management, risk management and earned value management. – TradeArabia News Service
