The axes your data,
privacy, and transformation
strategy turn on.
We empower organizations to become data-driven enterprises by integrating Data Analytics, Data Governance, PDPL compliance, and Digital Transformation into practical business strategies. The result is better decisions, stronger governance, greater efficiency, and measurable business outcomes.
A boutique built for the Kingdom's pivot.
Saudi Arabia is moving fast. The Personal Data Protection Law is in force, SDAIA and sector regulators are raising the bar on governance, and digital transformation has become a board-level mandate rather than an IT side project. Most organizations feel this as pressure. We built MQC to treat it as the architecture for an advantage.
Mahawer Alqiyam Consulting is a senior-led practice based in Jeddah, working across data strategy, privacy compliance, governance, and digital transformation — the four axes (mahawer) that, handled deliberately, turn regulatory change into lasting value (qiyam).
Senior-led
Every engagement is led start to finish by senior consultants — not handed off to a junior bench.
Saudi-fluent
Working knowledge of the PDPL, SDAIA, and sector regulators — not a global template with terms swapped in.
Lean & pragmatic
Right-sized engagements built to be implemented — not shelf-ware and Big-4 overhead.
Vision 2030-aligned
Governance and digital transformation designed for where the Kingdom is heading, not just where it's been.
Four axes. One engagement model.
Each practice area stands on its own — and compounds when handled together.
Data Strategy & Architecture
Turn scattered systems into a coherent asset: strategy roadmaps, architecture assessments, data quality, lifecycle, and ownership models that actually get used.
Privacy & PDPL Compliance
Practical, audit-ready compliance with the Saudi PDPL: gap assessments, DPIAs, policies and procedures, breach-response readiness, and staff training.
Governance & Risk
Decision rights, controls, and frameworks that hold up under scrutiny and scale with growth — not a binder that sits on a shelf.
Digital Transformation
ROI-focused transformation: roadmap prioritization, readiness assessment, governance guardrails, and support from pilot through to scaled delivery.
A method, not a mystery.
Four steps, repeated for every engagement — short enough to stay agile, structured enough to hold up.
Assess
Map current-state data maturity, privacy exposure, governance gaps, and digital transformation readiness against where you actually need to be.
Design
Build a roadmap and target model sized to your organization's structure, risk appetite, and timeline.
Implement
Work alongside your team to deliver policies, controls, and pilots — we stay until it's running, not just written.
Sustain
Embed monitoring, ownership, and periodic reassessment so governance holds as the organization grows.
Built differently, on purpose.
Senior-led, start to finish
You work directly with the people setting the strategy — not a rotating bench of analysts.
Saudi-market fluency
Deep working knowledge of the PDPL, SDAIA, NCA, and sector-specific regulators in the Kingdom.
Lean and pragmatic
Right-sized engagements built to be implemented quickly — not padded scopes and shelf-ware.
Vision 2030-aligned
Governance and digital transformation designed for where the Kingdom's economy is heading.
