Software Development for Qatar, Saudi Arabia & the Gulf

NHZ Global has delivered GIS platforms, CRM systems, apps and multitouch installations in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf since 2012, with bilingual English/Arabic systems and UK/US project leadership.

A decade of delivery in the Gulf — bilingual systems, government-grade contracts, UK and US project leadership.

NHZ Global has worked in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC since 2012: a complete GIS mapping and navigation platform delivered under a performance bond and handed over with source code, a custom CRM hosted and supported monthly for a Qatar trading company, multitouch tables and interactive installations for government and retail, and ongoing supply and software work for clients in Saudi Arabia. We understand ministry procurement, Arabic/English interfaces, local hosting requirements and the pace at which Gulf projects need to move.

What we deliver in the region
