Imdaad launches Imtedaad’s mobile version at The Big 5 2016

Imdaad, a leading provider of integrated facilities management solutions in the GCC, has launched the mobile version of its state-of-the-art technology Imtedaad during its participation at The Big 5 2016, the latest edition of the Middle East’s largest construction event being held at the Dubai World Trade Centre. Imdaad’s move is in response to the growing demand for access to business information and applications through mobile technologies as well as the increasing popularity of ‘third platform’ technologies.

A recent IDC report has stated that mobility shows the inter-dependencies between mobile computing, social media, cloud computing, big data, and possibly the Internet of Things (IoT), which has transformed how people and businesses relate to technology. To date, industry experts have forecasted that annual spending on mobility across the Middle East, Turkey, and Africa (META) region will reach USD 185 billion by 2019—reflecting a 10.2 per cent share of worldwide enterprise and consumer spending on mobile devices, software, and services, which is also expected to reach USD 1.8 trillion in 2019.

Jamal Abdullah Lootah, CEO, Imdaad, said: “In today’s digital age, mobility and agility are very vital. Most individuals now are always on the go and they demand easy access to important documents anywhere, anytime; this is especially true for businessmen and employees – an increasing number of whom rely on their smart mobile devices to do their work. By introducing the new mobile version of Imtedaad, we are enabling users to access the system on their mobile devices even if they are not onsite. We will effectively demonstrate its advanced functions and features in the coming days here at The Big 5 2016.”

“Easy access to the Imtedaad platform results in numerous value-added benefits such as improved productivity and higher profitability, to name a few. Moreover, the mobile version reflects our utmost commitment to contribute to the UAE’s smart transformation efforts and help achieve its smart goals as the country steadily marches towards building sustainable and smart cities in accordance with the vision and directives of the country’s wise leaders.”

The launch comes at the height of the UAE’s rising mobile and smartphone penetration rates—complementing an eMarketer’s report showing the UAE’s 200 per cent mobile penetration and 74 per cent smartphone penetration rates. Imtedaad is an important building asset that intelligently analyzes performance trends of interconnected assets and correlates all essential data with the behavior of the building’s eco-system—producing more accurate recommendations and corrective actions to ensure a building’s optimized performance.

At The Big 5 2016, Imdaad will be showcasing Imtedaad’s state-of-the-art features, including cognitive computing platform, predictive maintenance capability, seamless machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, automatic corrective measures, real-time monitoring and tracking of assets, and energy management. The system has created positive impact on the region’s business landscape, leading to optimal workflow and productivity across the supply chain. The newly launched mobile version also seeks to meet the requirements of the UAE’s business sector amidst rapid adoption of ‘third platform’ technologies.
