Remote Pro Ai serves Saudi government entities and enterprises through a Saudi contracting entity, priced in SAR with cleared e-invoices, with squads aligned to the NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls (ECC-2:2024), the PDPL enforced by SDAIA and the SAMA Cybersecurity Framework in financial services.

How on-site seats work in the Kingdom
An on-site seat is a specialist who works at your premises every working day, employed through our Saudi company and priced as a full monthly seat from the price book, residence costs included. Remote seats stay on our payroll outside the Kingdom and never enter your Nitaqat calculation; the table below covers the on-site model only.
| Item | How it works |
|---|---|
| Where the team sits | At your premises (offices, government sites, operating locations) every working day; Gulf operations run from our Al-Khobar office, and client meetings are held in Riyadh by appointment |
| Who employs them | Mohammed Ali Al Khuraim Information Systems Technology Co., not your payroll. They count in our Saudi company’s own Nitaqat band, not yours |
| Devices and network | Client-issued or ours, as agreed in the SOW; IT access and devices pre-approved before Day 0 shorten onboarding |
| Residence, iqama and visas | Residence costs are included in the on-site seat price; the residence and visa arrangements for each seat are confirmed per engagement in the SOW |
| Start lead time | 4 working days from your signed order; for roles that need a security clearance, the days count from the date it is granted |
| Working calendar | Sunday–Thursday on the Al-Khobar calendar (AST, UTC+3); Ramadan hours and public holidays per the engagement calendar attached to the SOW |
| Data | Designed for in-region hosting: work inside your environment, with an in-Kingdom cloud region on request |
| Price | From the price book (2026.10-r43), shown in SAR on the Pricing page; residence costs included, no figure is typed here |
Nitaqat ratios and bands are verified with HRSD and are not reproduced here; the three contracting options are on Nitaqat and Etimad, Option 2.

Placeholder record — to be replaced
Quotes in SAR
Your proposal is issued in SAR by our Saudi company, with VAT at 15% added on a separate invoice line (by law). Payment terms are as stated in the proposal. Seat prices come from the price book (2026.10-r43) through the price engine and are quoted per level, practice and engagement model. The proposal reaches you by email within 2 minutes of your request.
A complement to your Saudi team, not a replacement
Remote Pro Ai squads add specialist capacity next to your own staff and your Saudization plan; they do not take the place of Saudi roles. Remote seats stay on our payroll outside the Kingdom and never enter your Nitaqat calculation.
Saudi Vision 2030 and national capability
When a programme must leave skills inside the Kingdom, Build-Operate-Transfer runs the team under a written localisation plan agreed with you: which roles are hired locally, the knowledge-transfer milestones and the date the team transfers to your entity.
Targets set with you
The plan’s targets are agreed per engagement and written into the SOW; no ratio is promised on this page.
