Current Challenges
Through our preliminary analysis, we've identified several key challenges with EKH's existing digital infrastructure that impact user experience, operational efficiency, and overall market perception.
1
Technical Limitations
The site is technically responsive, but it runs on an aging stack with a legacy front end and no modern design system. UI/UX is static and dated—low-resolution images, basic graphics, and limited interactivity—so the experience feels flat on today’s high-density screens. Rigid templates/components also make content hard to reformat or reuse, slowing updates and keeping the site from feeling current.
2
Content & Localization Issues
Limited Arabic language support creates inconsistent experiences across your target markets. Manual content updates require technical intervention, delaying time-sensitive communications. Weak SEO implementation results in suboptimal search visibility for key investor search terms and company information.
3
IR Platform Constraints
The current IR application relies on a legacy, static design that no longer meets modern UX standards. Interactive reporting remains limited, reducing investor ability to explore and compare financial data. The platform also lacks contemporary communication channels (e.g., alerts, subscriptions, rich embeds), missing opportunities for timely stakeholder engagement.
These challenges collectively impact EKH's digital presence, creating friction for users and inefficiencies for your team. As market expectations continue to evolve, addressing these issues becomes increasingly critical to maintaining your competitive position and ensuring effective stakeholder communications.
Our proposed solution directly addresses each of these challenges, implementing modern technologies and best practices to create a digital ecosystem that aligns with your business objectives and stakeholder expectations.
Project Objectives
Based on our understanding of EKH's challenges and business requirements, we've defined the following core objectives for this digital transformation initiative:
Modern Website Experience
Deliver a fully responsive, bilingual (.en/.ar) corporate website that provides an exceptional user experience across all devices. The site will feature optimized load times, intuitive navigation, and compelling content presentation that aligns with your new brand identity.
Secure CMS Platform
Implement a secure, scalable ASP.NET Core CMS with role-based administration to streamline content management. The system will support your team's workflow with intuitive interfaces and robust security protocols to protect sensitive corporate information.
Enhanced IR Platform
Modernize your Investor Relations platform with real-time financial dashboards, interactive reports, push notifications for market updates, and a secure investor portal. This will elevate investor engagement and provide transparent access to critical financial information.
Design Implementation
Achieve pixel-perfect implementation of The Brand Company's design files (Figma/XD/Sketch), ensuring visual consistency across all digital touchpoints. This includes proper handling of typography, color systems, spacing, and interactive elements that align with your new brand guidelines.
Technical Excellence
Build all systems on modern, enterprise-grade technologies that provide optimal performance, security, and scalability. This includes leveraging ASP.NET Core, Angular, and cloud infrastructure to create resilient platforms that support your business needs.
These objectives will guide our implementation approach, ensuring that the delivered solutions align with EKH's business goals and provide measurable improvements to your digital ecosystem. Our success metrics will be tied directly to these objectives, providing clear benchmarks for project evaluation.

Risk Management
Effective risk management is essential for project success. We've identified potential risks to EKH's digital transformation and developed mitigation strategies to address them proactively.
1
Scope Creep
Risk: Expansion of project scope beyond initial requirements, impacting timeline and budget.
Mitigation: Structured change control process with impact assessment for any scope changes. Clear documentation of requirements and regular scope validation with stakeholders.
Contingency: Buffer time and budget allocation to accommodate minor scope adjustments without affecting critical path.
2
Content Delays
Risk: Delayed content preparation or approval from EKH, affecting content migration and testing schedules.
Mitigation: Early content inventory and planning, clear content ownership and approval workflows, and regular content status tracking.
Contingency: Placeholder content strategy for development and testing, with parallel content development workstreams.
3
Security Events
Risk: Potential security vulnerabilities or incidents affecting project systems or data.
Mitigation: Secure development practices, regular security testing, and comprehensive security protocols throughout the development lifecycle.
Contingency: Incident response plan with defined roles and procedures, backup and recovery strategies for quick restoration.
Our risk management approach includes a comprehensive risk matrix that is regularly reviewed and updated:
Ongoing risk management processes include:
  • Weekly risk review during project team meetings
  • Risk tracking log with status updates and resolution plans
  • Proactive escalation protocol for emerging risks
  • Regular stakeholder communication about risk status
This structured approach to risk management ensures that potential issues are identified early and addressed proactively, minimizing their impact on project success. Our experience with similar projects allows us to anticipate common challenges and implement preventative measures before they affect project outcomes.
