OutSystems, has partnered with EBLA Computer Consultancy Company to develop a go-to-market strategy for EBLA’s clients across the GCC – with Kuwait enablement as its starting point.
The partnership will allow both companies to accelerate their joint GTM activities in Kuwait and Qatar, cater to the transformation goals of EBLA’s customers and prospects, and speed up the development and deployment of cutting-edge and mission-critical applications.
“EBLA is an important addition to the OutSystems partner ecosystem in the Middle East. We are extremely thrilled that this partnership will accelerate our efforts to support the growth of the region alongside our mutual goal to support our customers’ digital transformation initiatives,” said Rodrigo Castelo, Vice President Middle East and Africa at OutSystems.
OutSystems is a worldwide leader that provides a low-code platform to develop, maintain, and operate custom enterprise-class solutions, supporting end-to-end digital transformation. EBLA always aims to establish partnerships with leading international players providing the latest technologies. It also noted OutSystems innovation in the use of emerging technologies, such as AI and machine learning, as well as its focus on components and reusability, which enables higher developer productivity in a low-code environment.
Enterprises of all sizes are moving towards the adoption of modern application development platforms because of the increasing demand for software automation and innovative applications, and the ease of developing web and mobile apps while keeping overheads low.
According to ResearchAndMarkets.com, the low-code development platform market size is expected to see a growth rate of 44.4%, from $4.32 billion in 2017 to $27.23 billion by 2022.
The joint-venture with OutSystems will make EBLA one of the first movers towards modern application development technologies in Kuwait. Traditional development methods used during implementation take more time and usually require an army of developers, ultimately increasing costs, especially when changes are required.
While EBLA has undertaken several digital transformative initiatives for their existing customers and prospects, the need to adopt a modern application development platform was inevitable. As a result, its move towards the OutSystems modern application platform will reduce time and cost through automation and provide added value to its clients. EBLA expects to enhance its project delivery speed by up to eight times with this alliance while significantly reducing dependency on deep technical skills. Following are some other areas where the company will see real value.
- The ability to provide breakthrough digital transformation solutions to the government sector.
- A rapid increase in time-to-market of projects and change requests.
- Increased customer satisfaction and higher retention rates.
- The ability to deliver more projects without increasing team size resulting in lower costs and an increase in revenue.
“Modern application platforms are the neo-form of tech development. We are always adapting to the latest developments in one of the fastest-changing sectors of the world,” said Farah Arnaoot, General Manager Kuwait at EBLA.
“We are excited to partner with world-renowned modern application platform providers like OutSystems to help our customers accelerate development time and focus more on providing business value. Through this venture, we will be enabling leaders to make faster and more informed decisions.”
