A regional subcontracting database is created by comprehensive survey throughout GCC covering small and medium scale subcontractors and main contractors. Their activities are coded according to international standards, which will include sector of activity, products, subcontracting operations and machines, production capacities and client details.
Subcontractors search will serve as a virtual meeting point for main contractors and subcontractors, and can provide both parties with a comprehensive central database which matches the needs of the either parties and bring them together in a record time. This matchmaking mechanism is expected to save the time, cost and create new business opportunities in GCC manufacturing sector, and eventually it will spill over to the other economic sectors in GCC countries.
