Case Study: Al Yusr Industrial Contracting Co. achieves a 90% application performance boost and zero downtime with Oracle Database Appliance (Oracle)

AYTB Boosts Application Performance by 90% and Eliminates Downtime to Ensure Business Continuity for Industrial Services

Al Yusr Industrial Contracting Co. (AYTB) is a leading multi‑disciplined industrial services firm in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, serving oil & gas, petrochemical, power and related sectors since 1979 with more than 5,000 employees. AYTB faced frequent unplanned downtime, software compatibility and performance issues from legacy hardware, and needed to consolidate ERP data, secure operations against regional power outages (previously causing up to 12 hours of downtime), and ensure business continuity.

AYTB replaced legacy systems with Oracle Database Appliance running Oracle E‑Business Suite (with Active Data Guard, ZFS backups, a standby site 500 km away, and Oracle Premier Support), implemented in two months with partners Al‑Falak and Exatek. The change delivered a 90% increase in database and application performance, zero planned or unplanned downtime since go‑live, dramatically faster payroll processing (from up to eight days to one click), simplified maintenance, and a stable platform for rapid deployment of new services such as mobile field apps.
