Software Development for Riyadh & the Kingdom
We support Saudi Vision 2030 through custom enterprise software delivery across Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam.
What working in Saudi Arabia actually involves
RNDSOL is a software development company serving Saudi Arabia from Lahore, delivering custom enterprise software across Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam. Vision 2030 changed what Saudi organizations buy: ministries and giga-project subsidiaries are replacing paper processes with digital platforms, private firms are following, and the budgets behind that shift are real. What hasn't changed is the bar for compliance: software that handles Saudi data or Saudi money gets audited, and the audit is thorough.
For financial products, that means SAMA compliant software development is not a checkbox added at the end. The SAMA Cyber Security Framework dictates how authentication and key management must work, right down to audit logging formats, and retrofitting those controls into a finished product costs far more than designing them in. We've built payment and wallet systems where the SAMA control mapping was part of the technical specification from week one.
Outside fintech, the NCA's Essential Cybersecurity Controls apply to a widening circle of organizations, particularly anything touching government contracts. We map our architecture decisions to ECC domains so that when your assessors arrive, the evidence already exists.
Procurement in the Kingdom is formal. Government work moves through the Etimad platform with vendor registration and technical evaluation before commercials open, and large private groups run a similar discipline through their own vendor portals. Expect security questionnaires, proof of comparable delivery, and milestone-based payment terms. We prepare that documentation as part of the proposal, and we scope pilots so the first deliverable lands inside a quarter rather than after a year of committee reviews.
Timezone overlap
Teams operate during local business hours, respecting Saudi business customs and scheduling norms.
Built for local requirements, not translated after the fact
SAMA
Saudi Central Bank requirements for digital payments, e-wallets, and banking APIs, including the SAMA Cyber Security Framework for anything that touches financial data.
NCA ECC
The National Cybersecurity Authority's Essential Cybersecurity Controls: asset management, access governance, logging, and incident response mapped to each ECC domain your assessors will check.
SDAIA / PDPL
Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority standards and the Saudi PDPL for personal data protection and ethical AI.
Arabic RTL & cultural UX
Arabic-language support and culturally aware UX design built for local users, not translated after the fact.
ZATCA e-invoicing
Any system that issues invoices in the Kingdom needs Fatoora phase 2 integration: cryptographic stamping, QR codes, and clearance through ZATCA's APIs. We build e-invoicing into billing and ERP work from the start instead of patching it in before a wave deadline.
Cloud & data residency
CST cloud rules and sector regulators decide where Saudi data may live. Hyperscaler regions inside the Kingdom now make local hosting practical, and we confirm the residency class of each data set with your legal team before choosing infrastructure.
Working with us from Saudi Arabia
Compliance mapped from the specification
For SAMA or NCA ECC scoped projects, the control framework becomes part of the technical spec. Every sprint that touches authentication or data storage references the specific control it satisfies.
Working rhythm matched to the Kingdom
Our week aligns to Sunday through Thursday for Saudi engagements, and Lahore sits two hours ahead of Riyadh, so collaboration happens in your morning and afternoon, not at midnight.
Long-term teams for transformation programs
Digital transformation in the Kingdom rarely ends at launch. Most Saudi clients keep a dedicated team on for phase two and beyond, with knowledge staying in one group instead of rotating vendors.
Where we're already active
What that looks like in practice
- Deep experience in healthcare, logistics, and fintech sectors specific to Saudi Arabia
- Understanding of regulatory nuances and user behavior across Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam
- Dedicated team augmentation for Kingdom-based digital transformation initiatives
Questions we hear from this market
Yes. We treat the SAMA Cyber Security Framework as part of the technical specification, so every encryption and access control decision maps to a named control. Your compliance team gets the evidence trail assessors ask for, not a scramble before the audit.
We map architecture and operational decisions to ECC domains during design: asset inventories, privileged access governance, logging retention, and incident response runbooks. If your organization is in ECC scope, the documentation grows with the build.
Often, yes, depending on the sector and the data class. Local cloud regions from providers operating in the Kingdom make residency practical, and we confirm the requirement with your legal team before choosing infrastructure.
For Saudi engagements, yes. We align sprint ceremonies to the Saudi working week and observe Kingdom public holidays on your calendar, so a Sunday standup in Riyadh has our team on the call.
