Our consultants may also utilize their own
professional and personal networks to identify
potential aspirants for the role.
This comes with interacting in the market over a
period of time and can sometimes become a
detrimental factor in the success of the project.
Contacting the Aspirant:
Presenting the role to a candidate is one of the
most vital elements in the entire assignment; it
requires the consultant to have an in-depth
Understanding of the role, the client and future
prospects of the candidate within the
Organization. Therefore it is imperative that the
presentation should be impeccable and thoroughly
researched to answer every conceivable query
from every angle for the candidate before
contacting them.
Taking into consideration the seniority of the roles
executed, we are made strong in our commitment
to providing the “best-available” talent as
opposed to the “best- visible” talent by an
accomplished team of aspiring young
entrepreneurs who can come out as
Analysts/Advisors for most of the seasoned
professionals they are consulting.
Our consultants respect rigorous ethical
procedures in approaching potential candidates.
All conversations are processed in absolute
discretion and confidentiality, bearing in mind our
privacy clause, unless otherwise mutually agreed.
The interaction between our consultants and
candidates in terms of a comprehensive dialogue
helps to instigate our ability to attract their peers

aligned with those required for the candidate’s
career progression and with those of the

Manpower Outsourcing
Horwath Saudi Arabia has been established for the
country’s Manpower needs, offering the broadest
outsourcing services in the market for the entire
employment and business cycle including:
Contract employment;
Outplacement;
Assisting our clients from Small & Medium Enterprises
in all industry sectors to the world's largest
multinational corporations, to better respond in
today’s extraordinary market conditions.
The focus of Horwath-KSA Arabia’s endeavors is
streamlining our client’s revenues, reducing
operational overheads, increasing productivity, and
enhancing quality & efficiency across their total
workforce, enabling clients to concentrate on their
core business activities.
The impetus for Outsourcing was and is…profits. This
is not always driven by the lowest cost/lowest wage
formula. A lot of it has to do with recognition of a
company’s core expertise, an understanding of what
the company does and does not do well. When a
company identifies its core competencies, or what it
offers to the marketplace that distinguishes it from
its competitors, it can then begin to consider the
advantages and disadvantages of outsourcing
non-core aspects of its business.
Presently Horwath - KSA adopts the following models
of Shared Services and Outsourcing or SSO:
Integrate Domestic Capability
SSO is located onshore and services are provided by
controlled units (either fully or partially owned)
Source Domestic Capability
SSO is located onshore and services are provided by
external service providers
Integrate Foreign Capability
SSO is located offshore and services are provided by
controlled units (either fully or partially owned)
From being an innovation in operating structure,
Outsourcing is now considered one of the
prerequisites to stay competitive.
We ensure that our clients needs stay at the forefront
of our service delivery. Horwath-KSA team works
alongside our clients – typically onsite – to define
business requirements and ensure our clients’
specific needs are met.
Our Expertise in the following verticals allows us to
provide premium services to our clients so they can
stay focused and increase their competitiveness
amidst increased challenges posed by globalization;
Information Technology Services
Back Office/Support Services
Human Resource Services
Finance and Accounting Services
Standard Outsourcing Solution
With many different providers offering many
different solutions, Outsourcing can at times be
confounding. In our quest to maximize transparency
and control for our clients, we have devised a
completely transparent system that puts our clients
in the driver's seat. We refer to this service as the
Standard Outsourcing Solution.
A) Hand-pick your Team Members
We work with our clients to clearly formulate the job
profiles of the people that will form their team; we
will recruit the candidates that our clients can meet
personally and evaluate as per their organizational
standards.
B) Infrastructure & Tools
Our services enable clients to use optimized and
highly secure data centers that underpin their
business functions and applications. Through robust
integrated operations built on IT Infrastructure
standards, proven technology solutions such as utility
infrastructure and specialist technical expertise, we
are successfully helping our clients improve the
quality of work.
C) Operational Management
Our management team will fully manage your
operation. By default, this management includes HR
management, including attendance and attitude
reporting, technical support, and operations
management. How project management is handled in
practice will depend on the nature of the project, its
scope, and the involved deliverables. We will work
with your management team to come up with the
right project management structure.
This type of service is applicable for our clients who
wish to utilize our services by employing full time
employees for a long period of time.
Non-Standard Outsourcing Solutions
The Solution is specifically designed keeping in mind
of our clients focused on their short term needs of
manpower.
A) Limited Project Duration and Scope
Our solution in this case would be to work with our
own internal resources and/or use contract
employees. We have an extensive database of
flexible staff that can be hired for short-term
projects and have a flexible Infrastructure designed
specifically for undertaking these projects. Project
management will be handled by our operations
department.
B) Build Operate Transfer
Horwath International brings in its own team of
specialists to evaluate the efficiency of our clients
current/ future business and operating model.
This type of arrangement is used typically in
complicated long-term projects. It is now the model
of choice for most large Outsourcing projects. It is
important to note that it rests on specialists who
bring in best knowledge and skill-sets for setting up
this project.
The staged process helps the client to evaluate the
risks involved and also helps them to check the
feasibility of the project before investing in it.
Incorporation & Corporate Management
Before you even consider setting up your own
corporate entity in Saudi Arabia, you will need to
learn about the local rules and regulations when it
comes to foreign ownership, corporate structures,
corporate entity types, tax or Zakat legislation, and
all other aspects of founding and operating a
company in the Kingdom.
Our consultants have a considerable amount of
experience and proficiency in this field and can assist
our clients with their company formulation and
operations within Saudi Arabia.
Using our experience and local business network, we
can facilitate the incorporation process to flow
smoothly and take care of all legalities involved. We
stay involved with the corporate management of your
entity by taking care of the bureaucratic hassles such
as the filing to the various departments at all
government levels.
Succession Planning
The statistics are alarming, recent surveys and
reports provide some interesting facts about
succession planning:
Only one percent of businesses reach a third
generation with family members managing them.
Another report shows that 30 percent of businesses
have not considered a successor.
Yet another survey explains that more than 58
percent of medium sized business owners list
inadequate succession planning as the biggest
threat facing their business.
It does not end there,
77% have no Management Succession Plan
76% have no Future Ownership Plan
50% will sell
68% of CEOs will retire in the next 5 years
75% have not sought external advice for Succession
Planning
Given the fact that 65 to 70 percent of the businesses
in the GCC are family-owned and managed, it's
obvious that a solid succession plan will be of
significance should the Top Level Executive retire or
leave the organization unexpectedly.
The odds for a successful transition are stacked
against the owner and the business unless the owner
or the top management takes an active role in
the transition process. Thinking ahead is a cardinal
rule of business. Organizations need to think about
the future for they leave it vulnerable to
considerable risks and management upheaval if they
don’t plan ahead.
Succession planning sits inside a much wider set of
resourcing and development processes called
'succession management', encompassing management
resourcing strategy, aggregate analysis of
demand/supply (human resource planning and
auditing), skills analysis, the job filling process, and
management development. It is about preparing
organizations now to be able to withstand the trends
tomorrow.
We at Horwath MAK ensure that with our experience,
we offer you the best solutions. We find and solve the
most critical challenges faced by our clients by taking
an Independent and holistic view of our client’s
performance. We depend on facts to provide credible
recommendations. Our process can be summarized as

with the needs and interests of their business.
Analyze Gaps
By identifying core competencies and technical skill
requirements of the leadership roles we determine
current supply and anticipate demand. We establish
the long term human capital needs and categorize
continuity issues. Therefore we do not make a
business plan on position replacement but rather
craft one on the long term talent needs of the
Organization.
Identification of Talent Pools
Using 360° feedback model we employ pools of
candidates matching the exact skill set required for
the execution of the role effectively. We identify
talent with critical competencies for multiple roles.

These candidates match the criteria desired by our
clients in order to execute the role effectively.
Market Intelligence/
Quality of Service Review
Understanding Markets and Consumers is the bedrock
on which business planning and strategy is built.

for that fact understanding client demands, your
business will be under constant threat from
competitors and may also be failing to extract the
maximum value from the market.

trends and benchmarks followed by the relevant
comparative organizations from a highly fragmented

campaign helps in fine-tuning the offering and
positioning of the brand firmly in the market.
