The Challenge

Identifying the core obstacles

The client had estimated 6 months to achieve operational status in Saudi Arabia based on prior experiences in other GCC markets. They faced overlapping regulatory requirements across MISA, MCI, and ZATCA with no local expertise, while their product launch deadline was fixed and non-negotiable.
