Custom ERP development for Saudi Arabia

An ERP designed around how your Saudi operation actually runs, in Arabic and English, with ZATCA Phase 2 invoicing built into the data model from day one rather than bolted on before a deadline.

If you are searching for custom ERP development in Saudi Arabia, you have usually already tried a packaged system and found that your operation does not fit the template. Distribution with dozens of price lists, contracting with project-based costing, services with Saudi-specific payroll and approvals: the parts that make your business work are the parts a standard ERP asks you to change. We build the system around the operation instead.

PluginZ Solutions runs its own bilingual ERP platform, Ops360, in production, and has delivered a hardened Azure environment for Sama Systems, a financial technology company in Saudi Arabia. That combination is what a Saudi ERP programme needs: product engineering, live operating experience and a security bar set by banking integrations.

Our engineering hub is in Cairo, which is zero to one hour behind Riyadh and one to two hours behind Dubai, depending on the time of year, so business hours overlap strongly. Contracting runs through our US legal entity, and we work in Arabic or English as you prefer.

Scope

What we deliver in Saudi Arabia

Discovery sprint and data model

A paid two to four week sprint that maps your real processes, master data and approval chains, then produces the data model, screen inventory and a fixed-scope estimate you can hold us to.

ZATCA Phase 2 invoicing core

Invoice, credit note and debit note objects designed for the Fatoora platform from the start: structured XML, cryptographic stamp, UUID and QR, with clearance for standard invoices and reporting for simplified invoices, as applicable to the invoice type and the current ZATCA specification.

Arabic-first interface and documents

RTL layouts, Arabic master data, Hijri and Gregorian dates where you need both, and bilingual printed documents: quotations, delivery notes, invoices and statements.

Operations modules that fit you

Sales and purchasing, inventory across multiple warehouses, project or job costing, HR and payroll workflows, and role-based approvals shaped to your policies rather than a vendor’s defaults.

Azure cloud architecture for Saudi workloads

Deployment on Microsoft Azure with identity through Entra ID, backup, monitoring and a hardening baseline carried over from our banking-integration work. Microsoft has announced that Saudi Arabia East is scheduled to become available in November 2026. Until general availability, we design Saudi workloads using currently available Azure regions or other in-country options based on residency, compliance and technical requirements, with a migration path to Saudi Arabia East where appropriate.

Go-live, training and support

Data migration from spreadsheets and legacy tools, user training in Arabic, a hypercare period after go-live, and a support retainer with named engineers.

ZATCA Phase 2 and Saudi data rules

Your ERP has to satisfy ZATCA and PDPL, not just your finance team

A custom ERP in Saudi Arabia is a regulated system. ZATCA’s integration phase means every invoice it issues must be generated in the approved structured format, stamped and either cleared or reported through the Fatoora platform. The Personal Data Protection Law adds expectations around how employee and customer data is stored, accessed and retained. Designing for both up front is far cheaper than retrofitting.

Wave 25: VAT-subject revenue above SAR 187,500 in any year 2022 to 2025, integration deadline 1 February 2027
Standard (B2B) invoices cleared in real time; simplified (B2C) invoices reported within the ZATCA window
Invoices carry a UUID, cryptographic stamp, hash chain and QR code generated by the system, as applicable to the invoice type and the current ZATCA specification
PDPL expects appropriate technical and organisational measures for personal data held in the ERP

Status as of September 2026. ZATCA announces new integration waves regularly and criteria can change; we verify the exact wave, deadline and technical requirements that apply to you before any work is scoped.

How a Saudi ERP programme runs

Phased, fixed scope, engineering-backed

Fixed scope per phase

Custom ERP is a phased programme from around USD 80,000. Each phase has a fixed scope and price, paid against milestones you can verify.

Discovery before commitment

The paid discovery sprint comes first, so the estimate for the build is based on your processes, not on a sales call.

Core first, then modules

We go live with the finance and invoicing core early, then add operations modules in order of business value, so you stop waiting for a big-bang launch.

Inside your business day

Cairo is zero to one hour behind Riyadh, depending on daylight saving time, so working hours overlap strongly, with weekly delivery checkpoints and on-site visits when the engagement needs them.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified

PluginZ Solutions is certified to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, so your procurement and IT teams get a documented security management system behind the code.

One accountable team

Design, build, Azure hosting and support from the same engineers. No hand-off between an integrator and a hosting vendor when something breaks.
