The request as filed

What the requester wrote on the intake form

Problem
Riyadh hosts Expo 2030 and 2034 World Cup matches, small and medium member businesses do not know how to qualify for the supply and service contracts around them, and the chamber has no map of their readiness.
Current state
Scattered enquiries reach the sectoral committees, and there is no readiness programme or database of ready businesses.
Objective
A business-readiness programme: a survey of businesses, readiness tracks with the training centre, an opportunities portal linked to BusinessConnect, and a yearly report through the Business Observatory.
Expected scope
The readiness survey, sectoral-committee workshops, readiness tracks, the opportunities portal, and media coverage and sponsorships.

From Training Centre e-Learning Platform

The first cohort’s nominations slipped six weeks because the partner member businesses were unclear on the selection criteria.

Recommendation: Put the nomination criteria and per-programme and per-partner quotas in the proposal itself.

National-platform integration needs early agreements

From My Business Portal 2.0 — the Unified Member Journey

Integration agreements with the data-owning agencies and the bus operator slipped 11 weeks because they only started after the contract award.

Recommendation: Start integration requests and their agreed time limits during feasibility, and plan a full integration sprint.
