When digital adoption reaches new heights, there's an equally important story happening behind the scenes.

In Saudi Arabia, electronic payments accounted for 85% of retail transactions in 2025, compared with 79% in 2024, according to the Saudi Central Bank.

This remarkable progress reflects more than changing consumer habits. It represents years of technological development, infrastructure investment, innovation, security enhancements, rigorous testing and collaboration across the financial technology ecosystem.

From local banking systems to regional networks and global technology providers, an enormous amount of expertise and continuous improvement supports the digital experiences millions of people increasingly rely on every day.

And that is something worth recognising. As our digital world advances, so do the technologies, capabilities and expertise that make this progress possible.

At ITS, we're proud to contribute to this evolving ecosystem through our banking technology solutions, consultancy and digital transformation expertise.

The strongest technology decisions rarely begin with a product.

They begin with a conversation.

A conversation about what the business actually needs. About readiness, infrastructure, data, people and risk. About what technology can realistically solve, and whether the organisation is prepared to turn that technology into real value.

This is where experience matters. And where the right consultancy can make the difference between simply adopting what is new and making a decision that is right for the business.

It is a conversation we have been exploring from different perspectives on the ITS Blog.

In “AI Beyond the Trend: Why Technology Needs Solid Ground,” Marwan Khalaf looks beyond the momentum around AI to the foundations, experience and readiness needed to make technology deliver meaningful value.

And in our conversation with Rudy Shoushany, “READY OR NOT, the future is NOT WAITING,” we explore AI, robotics, digital transformation and the future of work — and why understanding, assessment and readiness matter before organisations move forward.

At ITS, those conversations continue beyond the Blog. Through our technology expertise, consultancy and services, we work with organisations to understand where they are, where they need to go and what it will take to get there.

Build or buy? For financial institutions modernising lending, that decision can shape far more than the technology stack.

As customer expectations evolve, regulatory requirements increase and lending becomes increasingly digital, financial institutions are under pressure to deliver greater speed, scalability, compliance and operational efficiency.

The challenge is deciding how to get there.

Should a bank invest the time, resources and specialist talent required to build a lending origination solution in-house? Or adopt a partner-driven platform designed to accelerate time-to-market, integration, innovation and scalability?

A whitepaper by IBS Intelligence and Nucleus Software explores the build-vs-buy decision and the key considerations financial institutions should assess when defining their lending origination strategy — from cost and governance to technology integration, compliance and long-term growth.

Sometimes the biggest shift comes from looking at the same conversation from a different angle.

In “AI Beyond the Trend: Why Technology Needs Solid Ground,” Marwan Khalaf, Group Chief Revenue Officer at ITS, explores what sits beneath innovation: the data, infrastructure, experience, readiness and decisions that determine whether technology creates real value.

The most expensive technology mistake may be deciding what to buy before deciding what the business actually needs.

Today, new platforms, AI capabilities and emerging technologies are moving fast enough to make premature decisions feel like progress. But the real work happens before the investment: defining the problem, testing the business case, understanding complexity, assessing infrastructure and skills, challenging assumptions, and identifying whether the proposed technology is actually the right next move.

That level of assessment takes experience. It requires the ability to see dependencies, uncover risks, recognise what can already be improved, and know when a different solution may create more value with less cost and disruption.

At ITS, our consultancy and technical expertise help organisations make better-informed technology decisions before significant time, capital and operational resources are committed.

Every major technology launch brings the same instinct: upgrade, adopt, move faster. But whether we are choosing a device for ourselves or making a technology decision across an enterprise, the better question is the same: what actually changes, what problem does it solve, and are we ready to use it well?

At business scale, the stakes are much higher. AI, automation, infrastructure and emerging technologies need proper assessment, architecture, integration and operational readiness before they can create measurable value. This is where consultancy, technical expertise and deep technology knowledge turn momentum into the right decision.

AI adoption is accelerating, but enterprise value still depends on what sits beneath the technology: maturity, data foundations, operational readiness, experienced assessment, trusted relationships and a clear business case.

Marwan Khalaf, Group Chief Revenue Officer at ITS, brings a practical view of AI and digital transformation shaped by decades of experience across technology, business and customer engagement, with a clear focus on readiness, scalability, resilience and measurable value.

In AI, speed is not the same as readiness.

As organisations move quickly to adopt new technologies, the bigger leadership question is whether the foundations beneath them can deliver real value.

In “AI Beyond the Trend: Why Technology Needs Solid Ground,” Marwan Khalaf, Group Chief Revenue Officer at ITS, reflects on what decades of experience have taught him about technology maturity, AI adoption, data, customer needs, operational readiness and the importance of assessing the problem before choosing the solution.

This article offers a practical perspective on how to separate momentum from meaningful progress, and why experience, preparation and solid foundations still matter when technology is moving faster than ever.

Written by Matt Rajeh, based on a conversation with Marwan Khalaf.

The full interview will also be available soon on the ITS YouTube channel.
