Transforming Product-Centric Growth with Epicor Kinetic cloud ERP
26 September 2025
A Defining Moment for Product-Centric Enterprises
Enterprises in manufacturing, distribution, and product-driven industries are at a crossroads in the UAE and GCC. Rapid digital transformation, global competition, and evolving customer expectations require businesses to shift from traditional ERP systems to cloud-first, intelligent ERP platforms.
Governments across the region - from the UAE’s Industry 4.0 initiatives to Saudi Vision 2030 - are actively encouraging enterprises to adopt digital solutions that improve productivity, sustainability, and compliance.
For product-centric enterprises - manufacturers, distributors, and supply-chain-driven businesses - the stakes are even higher. Their success depends not only on operational excellence but also on their ability to deliver personalized products, faster time-to-market, and sustainable practices.
This is where Epicor Kinetic Cloud ERP, delivered by SCASYS (Epicor Authorized Partner in UAE & GCC), comes in.
Why Product-Centric Enterprises Need Cloud ERP
Unlike service-led companies, product-centric businesses face complex challenges that require advanced solutions:
Complex Global Supply Chains – Managing suppliers, distributors, and logistics partners across multiple GCC countries.
Demand for Personalization – Customers in the region increasingly expect customized products, from consumer goods to luxury automobiles.
Regulatory Compliance– Enterprises must stay aligned with VAT, corporate tax, ESG regulations, and Arabic-localized systems.
Data Security & Residency – With UAE and KSA introducing stricter data residency laws, ERP systems must comply with local cybersecurity standards.
Sustainability Mandates– The UAE’s Net Zero 2050 initiative requires businesses to track carbon footprint and resource usage.
Cloud ERP, particularly Epicor Kinetic, addresses these challenges while positioning enterprises for future-ready growth.
