Nuqul Group Goes Live with StepStones Talent Management Solutions across 30 Business Units within the Middle East

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nuqul Group, one of the Middle East's leading industrial groups, has successfully completed a global deployment of StepStone’s (OSE: STP.OL)(LSE: STPS.L) Talent Management solutions. The solution, which will provide the Nuqul executive team with detailed visibility into all international business units, includes modules for Human Resources, Performance Management, Development Management, Compensation Management, Career & Succession Planning, Skills & Competency Management, and reporting. The StepStone solution is now fully functional in all Business Units including the Jordan head office, Egypt, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Dubai.

StepStone was selected because the solution was deemed both user friendly and able to accommodate Nuqul’s very specific user requirements across the business units while ensuring strong security for employee data. In addition, the solution offered Nuqul easy to use facilities for prompt decision-making through a powerful query facility which filtered and reviewed information based upon a wide range of parameters. Detailed analytics provide current charting of performance and also identification of management potential across all job categories.

The quality of both Stepstone’s technology, and the high level of professionalism from both Stepstone and its partner Business Consult (a certified StepStone partner in Jordan) were both highlighted by Nuqul:

“The StepStone platform is helpful in so many ways - it is a very important tool that helped us to better manage our HR functions,” says Majed Hasan, HR Planning & Management Manager from the corporate group. “The consultants trained the HR people in our Home Office and several of our Business Units. Then these internal champions gave support and training to all the HR people in all the Business Units inside and outside Jordan. All the consultants that we worked with they were very helpful and supportive - they were available anytime. If we needed any new system that would add any value to our Human Resource Processes, we would definitely choose it from StepStone Solutions.”
