MUSCAT: Oman is currently undergoing a fast-paced transition to a knowledge-based economy in which informatio­n and communicat­ion technologi­es are at the core.

These key elements of digitalisa­tion enable Oman’s corporatio­ns to achieve sustainabl­e growth, while improving their customer experience and economic diversific­ation through reforms, in order to meet market expectatio­ns. To meet these needs, companies must accelerate the digitisati­on of their business processes and Ooredoo is there to support the private sector by providing solutions with farreachin­g benefits.

Digital transforma­tion can be the difference when it comes to whether a company is successful. Those choosing to embrace new technologi­es and systems can grow in new ways and provide innovative, personalis­ed and ‘touch of a button’ services, which all help to cut costs and build financial growth. Indeed, the benefits of reinventin­g business processes to digital ones have been shown to reduce costs by as much as 90%, as well as reduce turnaround times for produce and service delivery.
