Supporting Qatar’s insurance innovation, QIIG and SAP-certified global channel partner Mannai Corporation will offer an integrated cloud platform application of SAP Customer Experience solutions and the SAP S/4 HANA real-time business suite. Using these solutions, QIIG can obtain a single source for all information, streamline departments, and help to meet compliance on its stock listing on the Qatar Stock Exchange.

The formal contract for three years was inked by Ali Ibrahim Al Abdulghani, Group President and CEO of QIIG, and Khalid Mannai, Vice Chairman, Executive Committee of Mannai Corporation.

“As Qatar’s Islamic insurance market continues to expand, Qatar Islamic Insurance took the initiative to transform our IT infrastructure to meet our customers’ insurance needs in real-time. Thanks to our digital transformation with SAP, we have full customer history, mobile-enabled analytics, and can also simplify our risk management and meet compliance.”
