Solvait and Motoon Real Estate Kick Off Their HCM Project

Solvait has kicked off the implementation of its human capital management platform (Solvait HCM) with Motoon Real Estate, a property developer based in Riyadh. The kick-off meeting brought both teams into one room to set the scope, the goals, and the timeline for building a single HR system that serves Motoon's employees from one place. Human capital management here isn't just a system for automating transactions. It's a way to connect employee performance to business goals, from hiring to payroll to talent development.

Why celebrate a kick-off day? Because a project this size is usually won or lost in its first weeks, not its final months.

A deliberate start makes the difference

The numbers in this field are blunt. Gartner research puts the share of enterprise system implementations that fail to meet their original goals at 55% to 75%. McKinsey's analysis reinforces it: more than 70% of change programs fall short, and the biggest reason isn't technical. It's employee resistance and weak team alignment from the start.

But the other side of the picture is encouraging. According to Panorama Consulting, 97% of organizations report measurable improvement after a successful rollout. The gap between those two outcomes begins at the first meeting: with a clear scope, and with both teams meeting around one goal. That's exactly what we set out to do with Motoon.

What the project will build for Motoon

The project runs on the Solvait HCM platform, built on Microsoft Dynamics 365, to unify the full employee lifecycle on one platform instead of scattered systems. The core scope covers:

• Core HR and a unified employee profile

• Payroll processing aligned with Wage Protection System and GOSI requirements

• Employee self-service for requests and leave without the bureaucracy

• Performance management and talent development tied to business goals

For a property developer growing in a competitive market, unifying these processes frees the HR team from repetitive manual work. It gives them time to focus on what actually matters: developing and retaining talent.

In the context of Saudi transformation

This project doesn't happen in a vacuum. The Saudi market is moving steadily toward HR digitization. The Communications, Space and Technology Commission reported that more than 89% of companies in the Kingdom had adopted digital tools by 2023, HR systems among them. And more than 50% of Saudi companies are expected to adopt AI-powered HR systems, according to 2025 estimates.

That direction aligns with Vision 2030's goals of raising sector efficiency and developing national talent. When a company like Motoon invests in a modern HR platform, it isn't just upgrading a system. It's building an institutional capability that serves its long-term growth.

A word on the kick-off

Amer Atiyah, CEO of Solvait, put it this way: "At Solvait, we believe technology is built for people first. Our partnership with Motoon Real Estate isn't about deploying a system. It's about building an employee experience that makes daily work simpler and more empowering. We look forward to making an impact together."

Our thanks go to the Motoon Real Estate team for their trust and the spirit of collaboration that brought both teams together from the first moment. The road ahead is clear, and the start matched the ambition.
