PM-Partners Launches Middle East Office

November 2010

Hampshire-based company PM-Partners group has opened an office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which will serve as a hub for its Middle Eastern Operations.

Already established in Australia and Continental Europe, PM-Partners now has the capability of serving its global customers directly in this region and is already attracting interest from locally based organisations.

PM-Partners Managing Director, Ray Mead, said: “The Middle East, and Saudi Arabia in particular, is showing a huge interest in improving project governance and project management capability. Gone are the days of increasing spending to deal with issues; what we bring to this market is project delivery that is efficient and controlled based on our experience of working with some of the biggest names in Europe.”

Issam Houdane, Regional Director for the Middle East said: “It’s great that we are now on the ground and already working with clients here. There has been a lot of buzz about our arrival, especially around our PMO Deployment and Outsourced PMO services. I feel we are positioned well in the market and can’t wait to make an impact. We’re all very excited about the new venture.”

PM-Partners are based in the heart of Riyadh’s business district and will be organising a large Regional PMO forum in the New Year to look at the latest issues and developments in the industry. “Anybody wishing to be involved should contact us” said Mr Houdane, “It will be the premier  Project Management event in the region and is part of our commitment to bring global best-practice to the best organisations in Saudi Arabia.”
