Platform: Managing Resources efficiently

LGN: Hi Simon, it has been always pleasure talking with you. How is your journey with 1-Platform started?

George: Well, as you know, I have come from a diverse professional background. Having worked in FMCG, Telecommunication and many other well-known brands such as Microsoft, Reliance, etc..., I have over 25 years of experience in the software and service industries. Today, there is a great opportunity and market for products like 1-Platform. This is a much-needed solution in the current hybrid workspace era!

LGN: Tell us more about 1-Platform and how it is going to ease up the existing work process?

George: As of now, we are heading into a hybrid and remote working era. There are different silos such as building management, meetings, security, access, control, and many more. Each of these silos has various data points.

Someone needs to stitch all these silos together. Taking APIs, codes, etc. after stitching, taking data points, and figuring it out to work around the right user interface to have insights

Managing resources like energy, time, space, and sustainability is a key element, there are three key factors that drive the mission of 1-Platform.

• Empowering leaders with the right dashboard through AI tools

• Engaging employees is most important to avoid scattered employees who cannot commit due to disruption.

• Enhancing resources through optimally managing energy, time, and space for the most sustainable solutions

We stitch all these datapoints together, bringing connectivity through our key factor at 1-Platform!

LGN: Tell us how to use your services as an end user? How complex is it to install and use it initially?

George: “The 1-Platform is very simple and unique. We can enable a rich experience in all aspects. We approach customers from the standpoint of resolving their pain points.

Our value proposition is to aim for better workflow and build a seamless management system. So yes, 1-Platform is very easy to use for our customers, as we have built it for their convenience.

LGN: The UAE is spearheading when it comes to technological advancements and has great potential to grow in such markets. How user friendly your technology is for a quick adaption?

George: The best part of the UAE is that they have spearheaded new technological innovations. Thanks to the UAE Government, we can say that the UAE is far ahead when it comes to adapting to new technology!

Our strategy is to first build the enterprise space and then target the banking and online sectors. By January 2023, we will have built two big categories after starting smart spaces: We aim to launch smart buildings (smart cities) and smart communities.

We also aim to roll out in the Middle East and Africa, starting in the UAE, then spreading into Saudi Arabia and eventually other countries in the MENA region by 2030. We are pretty much going as planned when it comes to building a channel model.

LGN: Do you have a support network structure in mind? Will it be in-house or outsourced?

George: Honestly speaking, it is a long-term process. It is a journey. It is a software model that renews every year. And every customer is a partner. We wish to build value with our customers, and we build partnerships through our value chains. It is a complete channel market.

LGN: In your vision, in creating a global reality with the latest projects we are sure you will be well on your way to become the market leader in this segment. Is there anything else you would like to add or share with our readers?

George: I truly think that we arrived in the market at the right time. Especially after the pandemic, there has been a gradual but long-lasting change in the work structure, with work from home and hybrid work types becoming the norm for most companies in 2023. Many big firms like Amazon, Apple, Deloitte, KPMG, and many others are cutting down on their office spaces and making a permanent shift to WFH culture, especially in whatever departments it is possible.

So, I think considering all this, we aim to make an impact and eventually transform human life at large—to better wellbeing, ease of use, and a better life—so that most of the customers can lead a comfortable life both personally and professionally.
