About CMCS

PMIS is all we do.

CMCS (Collaboration, Management and Control Solutions) helps the owners behind the region's most significant capital projects deliver them digitally, with a PMIS at the core. We license, implement, integrate and support PMWEB, and connect it to the applications that make it deliver more.

Why practitioners make the better PMIS partner

We know what the system has to capture because we spent decades managing and controlling capital projects ourselves. That experience now goes into configuring PMIS processes that hold up in practice, at audit and in a claim.

Vision & mission

Vision

To be the PMIS implementer and partner of choice for capital project owners across the GCC and MENA.

Mission

To digitalize the delivery of capital projects by implementing PMWEB as each owner's system of record: configured to their processes, connected to their enterprise systems, and supported for as long as they deliver.

Focus

One discipline, done well: the PMIS and what connects to it.

Integrity

Straight, expert advice, including when it is not the easy answer.

Partnership

On the same side as owners, PMCs and contractors alike.

Outcomes

Measured by adoption and data quality, not by licences sold.
