Because of Abdullah Al Othaim's diverse network of companies and branches across several cities, significant challenges arose in tracking attendance, managing payroll, and processing employee requests. Before implementing Jisr, employees needed to contact management in Riyadh to obtain their salary details or submit any requests, resulting in considerable complexity, paperwork, and time wasted. In this story, the HR team shares their experience with Jisr and how it helped them streamline processes and achieve digital transformation.

Challenges before Jisr

Before the implementation of Jisr, a number of challenges emerged that impacted the efficiency of daily operations, most notably:

  • Multiple companies, branches, and cities: Managing a large number of employees distributed across multiple locations made tracking attendance, requests, and data complex and labor-intensive.
  • Centralized information at the main office: Employees needed to contact management in Riyadh to obtain information such as salaries or job details, causing delays in response and increasing the workload on the HR team.
  • Complex payroll management: Preparing payrolls took 6 to 7 days due to the manual collection and review of data from various branches, increasing the likelihood of errors.
  • High Paper Consumption: Procedures such as clearances and employee requests relied on multiple paper forms, resulting in high paper consumption and difficulties in archiving and accessing information.
  • Poor Interdepartmental Coordination: Cooperation between different branches and departments was not seamless, especially in the uniform application of HR policies and procedures, which affected the quality of implementation.
  • Difficulty Accessing Data and Reports: The lack of a central system led to data fragmentation and difficulty in generating accurate reports to support decision-making.
