SOMERVILLE, N.J. and RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Oct. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Trascent, a global leader in facilities management advisory services, and Gulaid Holding, a renowned investor within Saudi Arabia’s facilities management sector, have joined forces to launch Trascent Arabia, a joint venture designed to provide value added and differentiated services focused on the Kingdom’s facilities management (FM) industry. The new entity will provide innovative solutions aligned with Saudi Vision 2030, which will focus on transforming the way FM services are delivered across the country and Gulf region.

Trascent is globally established for thought leadership and expertise in structuring and governing the delivery of best-in-class FM services, drawing from Trascent’s experience in advising more than 20% of the Fortune 500 on outsourcing FM across diverse markets. Complemented by Gulaid Holding’s 15-year deep understanding of the Saudi market and local capabilities, Trascent Arabia aims to enhance FM service quality and efficiency through best practices in contracting and managing FM services. The joint venture aims to address unmet market demands by offering cutting-edge advisory, contract management, and program management services.

Rakesh Kishan, Chief Executive Officer of Trascent Arabia and Managing Principal of Trascent, explained, “Trascent Arabia will bring market-leading expertise in advanced contracting models for facilities management at a time where clients are seeking better and more innovative solutions in FM. By combining Gulaid’s deep local knowledge with Trascent’s market leading capabilities, we are positioned to deliver world-class services that support the increasing demands of facilities management in Saudi Arabia. As the Kingdom invests heavily in new cities, infrastructure, entertainment, and other investments, our services will enable clients to achieve FM excellence for residents, tourists, and businesses alike.”

According to a recent report by Fortune Business Insights, the FM sector in Saudi Arabia is projected to reach US$56.33 billion by 2032, growing at a compounded annual rate of 10.3% from 2023. With the Kingdom undergoing a transformation for Vision 2030, the FM industry faces increasing pressure to move beyond traditional manpower-based services to more sophisticated, customer experience-led solutions. Trascent Arabia will help clients achieve advanced FM services tailored to support key national mega projects, such as NEOM, Qiddiya, and the Red Sea Project.

Naser Gulaid, Executive Chairman of Gulaid Holding, added, “For the past 15 years, Gulaid Holding has been a leading investor in Saudi Arabia’s FM industry. With Vision 2030 raising the bar for excellence, Trascent Arabia will help to bridge the gap between current market capabilities and future demands. Our services will not only enhance operational efficiencies but also introduce technology-driven FM strategies that focus on customer experience, sustainability, and efficiency, perfectly aligning with the Kingdom’s vision for growth. Our clients want innovative, experience-led services, and that’s exactly what Trascent Arabia is bringing to the table.”

Trascent Arabia will focus on three core service areas: management consulting services – advising clients on how to structure FM contracts, develop service specifications and deploy best practices in commercial models; contract execution and management – providing a single point of contact for ensuring compliance performance across FM contracts; and program management – overseeing key client initiatives, including energy efficiency and sustainability projects, ensuring their effective and timely implementation.

The joint venture aims to position Trascent Arabia as a key FM resource to clients in Saudi Arabia. Trascent Arabia will be led by an experienced executive team with deep knowledge of local dynamics and global FM best practices.

Regulatory pressure and demands for compliance are driving the AI Governance Market as governments around the world roll out tougher regulations related to AI. For example, the European Union’s AI Act had subjected risk assessments and compliance audits to AI systems, particularly in high-risk sectors like health and finance, thereby increasing demand for the governance framework. Organizations also run the risk of facing reputational damages linked with prejudiced or harmful AI output. A notable example is the controversy caused by OpenAI GPT models, which flagged misinformation and biased data concerns, making businesses adopt robust AI guard rails. On similar note, Amazon’s discontinuation of its biased AI recruiting tool demonstrate the reputational and financial risks of ungoverned AI. Another major reason for market expansion is the uptick in AI adoption across highly regulated industries, especially BFSI and healthcare. Industries operating in these sectors are under immense regulatory pressure to comply with dynamic regulations, leading to increased affinity towards AI governance tools.

By product type, data governance tools will account for largest market share in 2024 owing to robust data provenance and lineage capabilities.

Data governance tools are poised to account for the largest market share in the AI Governance Market, as these tools help an organization track data quality, provenance, and bias within AI development training data. This is important in order to prevent bias results being generated from AI systems. For example, data governance tools may apply profiling techniques to the dataset in order to ensure fairness, and also put in place data lineage to indicate potential problems with data sourcing. As an increasing number of AI regulations call for documentation, tracking and record keeping especially on the data that feeds AI systems, data governance has become paramount. Data governance also assists enterprises in compliance with regulations through robust AI data traceability and accuracy. Additionally, the metadata repository feature in data governance tools offer centralized catalogs and controls of metadata for data visibility across an organization to ensure trustworthy and responsible AI implementation.

The demand for ethical AI use across ML platforms and generative AI models will push software & technology providers as the fastest growing end user segment during the forecast period

Software & technology providers are poised to become the fastest growing end user segment in the AI Governance Market, buoyed by rapid adoption of AI governance tools to make their AI systems trustworthy and ethical. The rising regulatory scrutiny and the expanding reach of data privacy laws like GDPR and CCPA has also accelerated governance frameworks being adopted across such players. For instance, Microsoft has created an internal AI ethics working group to implement strong ethical guardrails across its AI offerings. On a similar note, Google has formed AI governance framework for developing fair, explainable, and ethical AI solutions. There are also expectations from stakeholders who demand that technology companies create AI responsibly. With AI regulations likely to disrupt every software vendor, incorporating ethical norms and regulation is now of extraordinary importance for technology businesses to maintain the brand’s trust and growth.

Inquire Before Buying@ https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/Enquiry_Before_BuyingNew.asp?id=176187291

North America is set to hold the largest market share in 2024, fueled by a strong regulatory environment and increasing investments in responsible AI deployment

North America has emerged as the largest regional market for AI government adoption. Federal funding on AI governance in North America crossed USD 1 billion in 2023, indicating a growing interest in responsible AI research. Industries with strict regulations such as healthcare and banking are leading in the implementation of governance, with 45% of healthcare providers mentioning regulatory compliance as a key business requirement. Businesses are forced to implement governance frameworks due to rising regulatory requirements like NIST’s AI Risk Management Framework and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). More than half of businesses expect more stringent AI rules in the next five years, with 62% citing data privacy compliance as a main factor for implementing governance. Also important is consumer confidence, as 78% of American consumers favor brands that utilize ethical AI. Businesses such as Google and Microsoft are implementing governance to guarantee transparency and establish trust. Additionally, organizations are prioritizing fairness in their AI systems and have turned to tools like IBM’s AI Fairness 360 to address the need to mitigate AI bias, with 56% of businesses doing so. Moreover, financial institutions are particularly focused on risk management, giving priority to governance for addressing AI-related risks.
