About Sahm Technologies
Sahm Technologies is the technology subsidiary of EMAAR Properties and has been created for the purpose of bringing exciting new ideas in the areas of technology and communications to both business and residential customers. As a young and dynamic company led by a professional team of technology experts and managers and in keeping with its vision Sahm has ventured into numerous technology areas since setting up. Sahm is bringing into being EMAAR's vision of building the world's largest "Intelligent City". Towards that end, Sahm has started deploying a state-of-the-art and future proof Internet Protocol (IP) network to service residents, business entities located within the EMAAR territories. Over this broadband network Sahm has started delivering exciting new services that encompass voice, data, video and smart home solutions that will make the concept of "Intelligent living" a reality. The Sahm network is one of the world's first true IP networks delivering services to residential and commercial customers at a carrier class grade of service. This means we can deliver a multiplicity of services over a single infrastructure while the use of IP technology allows for introduction of the next generation of communication services as and when they are available without investment in a new network infrastructure. The carrier class nature of the network ensures diverse routing around failure, redundant equipment to mitigate failure and a sophisticated level of service and security measures, which protect both the network and its subscribers. The use of fibre-to-home and Ethernet-to-home technology allows the delivery of multiple services on a single connection. Additional services can be added simply and without additional wiring. Today Sahm is providing technology services to the EMAAR group companies. Dubai Bank, the newest bank in Dubai's firmament, Amlak Finance, EMAAR PJSC and EMRILL all depend on Sahm for their IT needs. The technology services include a data centre, call centre operations and management, web design and hosting, network management, managed security services, technology consultancy, field support, solutions implementation and project management. Sahm is also focused on the integration of ERP solutions and other software packages. With competencies ranging the full breadth of technology implementation and management, Sahm is poised to offer its IT infrastructure and management skills to businesses. Sahm's vision is to be the leading IT and network operations solutions provider in the Middle East, an organization where knowledge is nurtured and respected.
