partnered with Swiber in this business<br />

venture. Today we have reached a significant<br />

milestone in terms of owning<br />

our first vessel. However, we believe<br />

that this is only the beginning. We<br />

see tremendous opportunities in the<br />

offshore oil and gas industry in Saudi<br />

Arabia, and we are excited to be riding<br />

this growth trend.”<br />

GAP ANALYSIS<br />

it is believed that our business performs better if all required planning<br />

is done in advance. irrespective of our operation or business, we can<br />

reduce gaps in performance only if all planning is done in time with all<br />

resources ready for use. Performance Gap Analysis examines particular<br />

aspects of business performance for problems and suggests solutions for<br />

these problems. it is a diagnosis-oriented analysis that pinpoints problems<br />

such that a business unit or a department can perform to plan and<br />

achieve the desired results. Very often any kind of negative performance<br />

in the business results in gaps and hammers the progress ahead. business<br />

managers need to analyze the reasons for gaps and take efforts to<br />

make the necessary changes for conditions to work accordingly.<br />

Gap analysis requires an established<br />

system of measurements such as company<br />

metrics, targets, or goals. When<br />

performance clearly indicates a trend<br />

of a distance between the current situation<br />

and the desired performance, certain<br />

steps are followed so that the business<br />

gap can be analyzed and removed<br />

to bring the business or growth back<br />

on track. The targets for each metric<br />

usually are calculated or emerge from<br />

the goals of the business. However,<br />

you will frequently find that the actual<br />

state of the business is not meeting<br />

these requirements – that a gap exists<br />

between what we need as a business<br />

and what we are actually getting. That<br />

gap could be a local issue, dealt with<br />

via daily management, or it could be an<br />

issue that crosses traditional management<br />

lines, which is handled in crossfunctional<br />

management. Basically,<br />

you need to start business gap analysis<br />

procedures from internal factors and<br />

later from external factors.<br />

In order to characterize and affect the<br />

business gap it is essential to analyze<br />

your business unit’s plans, goals, and<br />

responsibilities. In case all duties are<br />

not assigned properly to employees,<br />

there will definitely be a gap in business<br />

growth. The business plans and<br />

goals must be SMART; that is Specific,<br />

measureable, Achievable, Realistic,<br />

and Timely.<br />

It is also essential to define the desired<br />

results for all functions (such as sales<br />

or business development) and assign<br />

all responsibilities accordingly to the<br />

staff and maintain a clear focus on<br />

their scope of work. If the business<br />

unit lends proper focus on expected<br />

results and aligns its functions accordingly<br />

there will be no issues of gaps<br />

relating to internal factors. measuring<br />

the individual performance as well as<br />

keeping documented records will help<br />

a lot in determining the requirements<br />

for corrective actions.<br />

A comparison between actual and<br />

desired results based on established<br />

business operations and processes<br />

will help business managers characterize<br />

the gap and understand all the<br />

required improvements. This kind of<br />

gap can be especially highlighted when<br />

comparisons are made over a sequence<br />

of intervals in a fixed timeline. When<br />

a trend of performance gap is clearly<br />

visible it can be a good indication of<br />

management, organizational setup, or<br />

team weaknesses.<br />

Identifying gap drivers requires robust<br />

reporting and KPI systems and a keen<br />

eye on data analysis. The basic reasons<br />

for business gaps can be analyzed<br />

by asking questions like: Why did the<br />

gap occur? Due to whom did the gap<br />

occur? Usually, questions like these<br />

can be answered with straight forward<br />

statistical methods such as Analysis of<br />

variances (ANOvA) and/or correlation<br />

analysis. Then you need to ask the<br />

question: What can be done to remove<br />

the gap and bring the business back to<br />

plan and how long would it take? At<br />

that point, you would have some options<br />

available and certain tradeoffs to<br />

make.<br />

To put a structure to the gap analysis<br />

process, let’s say it can be conducted<br />

in three different stages. To start with,<br />

you should use your management dashboards<br />

to identify and clearly state the<br />

problem – an issue that could be expressed<br />

in terms of unmet goals or specific,<br />

weak positions (e.g. weak sales<br />

or manufacturing process) that need to<br />

be strengthened to improve your business<br />

unit’s performance. Next, you<br />

need to develop criteria to accurately<br />

characterize the current (weak) performance<br />

in relation to your business unit<br />

metrics and plans and then the performance<br />

required to solve the problem.<br />

Root cause analysis (RCA) can be one<br />

of the methods to effectively pinpoint<br />

the problem through the fishbone analysis<br />

tool in addition to the statistical<br />

methods I mentioned earlier. The last<br />

step would then be to formulate and<br />

implement corrective actions to move<br />

from current performance to the desired,<br />

planned performance.<br />

Once you have identified and analyzed<br />

all possible business gap reasons, possible<br />

options can be put to practice<br />

to make things better. Identifying all<br />

possible solutions is not too cumbersome<br />

if their root cause is recognized.<br />

Implementing the solutions will work<br />

out and to a high degree bridge the<br />

gaps in business and quickly stabilize<br />

operations. To be on the safe side<br />

all possible elements that may create<br />

gaps should be studied in advance and<br />

workflow should be continued accordingly.<br />

<strong>RAWABI</strong>’S SERvICE<br />

APPRECIATION AWARDS<br />

2010<br />

Rawabi’s Service Appreciation Awards Ceremony for the year 2010<br />

took place at Le Meridien Hotel, Al-Khobar, last November 25,<br />

2010. Two Hundred and Eighteen (218) employees were honored<br />

for their years of service at Rawabi companies.<br />

<strong>RAWABI</strong> CHAIRmAN<br />

OPENING SPEECH<br />

“Distinguished Guests, ladies and gentlemen,<br />

Welcome to Rawabi’s Annual Service<br />

Appreciation Awards! I am delighted to<br />

greet each and every one of you and I<br />

am very proud to honor a great number<br />

of our team members for their commitment<br />

and hard work over the years.<br />

Dear Honorees,<br />

An honest executive is one who shares<br />

the credits with the people who did all<br />

the work for him. Well, I want to say<br />

how grateful I am for the really dedicated<br />

work that you have put in over<br />

the past years-----a very demanding era<br />

for Rawabi group of companies as many<br />

of you know. Your loyalty and sense of<br />

responsibility have contributed to our<br />

continuous growth and development.<br />

So on behalf of myself, the company,<br />

and your colleagues, congratulations<br />

on your years of service and to many,<br />

many more!<br />

Ladies and gentlemen,<br />

A wise man once said:”He that will<br />

not apply new remedies must expect<br />

new evils; for time is the greatest innovator.”<br />

— Francis Bacon (22 January<br />

1561 - 9 April 1626) was an English philosopher,<br />

statesman, scientist, lawyer,<br />

jurist and author.<br />

“He that will not apply new remedies…”<br />

so in order for us to compete<br />

and continue to expand while maintaining<br />

success in an ever-changing world<br />

of business with all its new trends and<br />

necessities, we must be ready and<br />

willing to change and modify our practice.<br />

A forward thinking and open minded<br />

approach has been one of Rawabi’s<br />

main tools that have enabled us to<br />

take the lead in different aspects of<br />

business. But to maintain our position<br />

and to exceed our goals and objectives,<br />

we’ve been constantly assessing and<br />

modernizing our practice as well as our<br />

image.<br />

Therefore, during the past few years,<br />

Rawabi has investing heavily in several<br />

projects to<br />

• reform our organizational<br />

structure<br />

moreover, during the 2009 Service Appreciation<br />

Awards, I had announced<br />

that we were in the process of rebranding<br />

to better reflect Rawabi’s position<br />

today. Since then, we have been working<br />

with a leading global brand consultancy<br />

on evaluating our brand and<br />

indentifying our unique values.<br />

We have audited the brands of our<br />

competitors in the Saudi market and<br />

internationally and compared their<br />

brands to our own to better understand<br />

where we stand. We have come up with<br />

a brand strategy for our group of companies<br />

and so on.<br />

Ladies & Gentlemen, The countdown<br />

is on…in January 2011, we will be<br />

launching the Rawabi Holding new<br />

brand.<br />

Dear Rawabi Employees,<br />

Change is never easy; however, when<br />

we work hand in hand looking wisely at<br />

the big picture and keeping in mind the<br />

necessity of being ahead of the game<br />

and taking the lead, we will make it<br />

happen!<br />

Once again, congratulations to all winners!<br />

Thank you very much and may<br />

2011 be a successful year to all!”<br />

Title/Subject: The Power of NOTHiNG!<br />

The word <strong>BRAND</strong> with its current meaning is a new arrival to our vocabulary,<br />

many marketers tried hard putting it into a solid frame with lots of theoretical<br />

descriptions, but at the end it doesn’t really have a physical form, it is a buildup<br />

of “values” made by several tools (logos, names, colors, products, character<br />

etc.) but at the end it is that very powerful “Nothing” that avatars “Something”<br />

deep into our minds.<br />

Catch: Our life is an integrated matrix of brands, and guess what, each of us is<br />

a brand whether we like it or not, so we better be a strong one!<br />

Actionable Message: You need to passionately work for the brands you belong to<br />

(starting from yourself), appreciate these brands, and utilize their power!<br />

Guest Speaker, Ibraheem Abbas, Chief Creative Officer/Co-Founder of<br />

Visualizit Company delivered a fun an education presentation on<br />

branding titled the Power of Nothing.<br />
