Salesforce Administration Business Analysis Data Governance Salesforce Flows Agile Scrum

Client Overview

Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) is one of the world's leading energy producers, with a strong focus on sustainable growth and digital transformation. Based in Abu Dhabi, UAE, the company operates across the entire hydrocarbon value chain — from exploration and production through to refining, distribution, and marketing.

As a large-scale enterprise with multiple business units and thousands of Salesforce users, ADNOC required ongoing, expert administrative support to maintain the stability, security, and optimal performance of their Salesforce environment. They also needed structured business analysis services to bridge the gap between complex business needs and technical delivery.

Iqra Technology was engaged to provide continuous Salesforce administration and business analysis support — managing users, maintaining data quality, building automation, delivering dashboards, and translating business requirements into actionable development work.
