These services also enable senior management to monitor operations in real time through real-time performance indicators and detailed, accurate reports, thus supporting strategic decision-making based on clear facts and figures. This digital system is subject to periodic evaluation and review to ensure continuous improvement and to keep pace with the latest global technologies.
The wise leadership's support for the development process
