Panamax Technology LLC, a global digital service provider, has partnered with Hilal Technology, the technology arm of Bahrain’s Al Hilal Group, to drive digital transformation in the Middle East. The partnership combines Panamax’s business modernization expertise and Hilal Technology’s regional presence, particularly in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.

Panamax has been delivering IT transformation solutions for over 22 years with expertise in ERP, product engineering, cloud, managed services, Governance, Risk Management, and Compliance (GRC), digital banking and payments, and telecom. Hilal Technology was founded in 1989 and has evolved from its publishing and marketing roots to become one of the top systems integrators in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Oman.

The partnership will bring the latest technologies to regional businesses to help them optimize and grow. The areas of focus are application modernisation, sustainability, data analytics, artificial intelligence, robotic process automation, security and human capital management. Panamax’s relationships with global technology leaders such as IBM, Microsoft, Epicor, Adrenalin, Oracle and SAP will enable Hilal Technology to offer a unique set of services tailored to the needs of Middle East businesses.

Already results are being seen, Hilal Technology has secured a deal with the region’s largest aluminum manufacturer to replace their legacy ERP system with the latest Epicor ERP. This will give the manufacturer visibility into their complex operations, agility and the ability to respond to market changes in real-time.
