46% Reduction in Routine Queries and 37% Faster Decision Turnaround
Through an AI agent ecosystem and central orchestration platform for a diversified conglomerate.
Client Overview
A large Middle East–based conglomerate operating across retail, automotive, real estate, and services, with shared corporate functions supporting multiple business units. The group manages complex operations with high volumes of structured and unstructured data across HR, Finance, Legal, and commercial teams.
Context & Challenges
As the group scaled across industries and geographies, knowledge and decision-making became increasingly fragmented. While data platforms and enterprise systems existed, business users still relied heavily on:
- Manual searches across documents, policies, contracts, and reports
- Repetitive queries routed through central teams (HR, Finance, Legal)
- Siloed insights across business units and functions
Leadership recognized that traditional dashboards alone would not solve the problem. They required a next-generation AI-led operating model that could democratize knowledge, reduce dependency on shared services, and enable faster, governed decisions at scale.
