| From a broad context, in past 5 years, COVID-19 pandemic and the prompt proliferation of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) have evidenced on the speedy impact on labour market and organisations changes. To affirm this, Khan (2020) note that as a result of COVID-19, a prompt need for changes in employees and organisation need based on the prevalent situation. This is with immense restrictions from working on basis of their daily habits. These changes included and not limited to flexible working opportunities, workplace environment development, support of staff in creating positive impact in their minds, virtual capacity development and review of strategic/total rewards. Similarly, AON (2024) report hypothesised that 32% of job roles and 69% of headcount have a high-level risk of major disruption owing to AI. This is with HR today (2023) report noting that 40% of entire workforce would be prompted to go through a reskilling process owing to implementation of AI and overall automation in future.
Considering Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) in Saudi Arabia, they are equally impacted by recent disruptions which have occurred in the external and internal business environment. As evidenced in MCIT (2024) report, in MCIT, 65% of all their employees transitioned to remote working with their operations recording 60% increased growth. This is with 40% of all their capacity development programs being turned to online or remote working. Further, for Generative AI, this has contributed to the organisation facing 40% increase in employees turnover. This is with a need for review of their total rewards being more evident due to the disruption in their workforce planning. As evidenced in Arab New (2024), upto 24% of Saudi Arabia Generation Z are putting in place appropriate strategies for securing more secure jobs. This is with a 14% globally labour market impacted by the current disruption in the labour market. Based on the background information, it is important to evaluate on the process adopted in MCIT in anticipating and responding to the change process. Despite of the evident disruptions caused by COVID-19 and the current Generative AI disrupting performance management, their process is still traditional. In MCIT, introducing change has majorly been characterised by resistance from the affected individuals. For instance, in 2022, the introduction of hybrid working was seen as a potential disruption to the normal operations of the organisation. There was equally a feeling that the change would lead to threats to their working relations hence leading to potential of exiting the organisation. Also, part of MCIT employees were indecisive on how they reacted to change owing to unpredictability of future outcomes. The outcome of these changes are normally a disruption to MCIT organisation and people operations and hence a need to altering their approach to change anticipation and responding to it. The aim of this strategic workforce planning evaluation is to offer a detailed framework for acquiring a detailed understanding of best practice in anticipating and responding to change. This is through a focus on MCIT organisation which has in the past been disrupted by different change occurrences with 30% of all their changes recording a failure. |

- This was established after the post-negotiation review which brought out fundamental lessons about the supplier and our company’s negotiation pattern.
- As for certain important aspects, we indeed secured favourable financing conditions; yet, problems arose in attempting to synchronize delivery schedules since such conditions are affected by external supply chain factors.
- The supplier had the better BATNA and acted in a cooperative but very assertive way, and elaborated why the correct approach to negotiations is more equal.
- Further, the experience showed how flexible one has to be, how innovative, and how it pays to be more interested in long-term partnership rather than quick profit. Therefore, it will be useful in the future to improve the techniques of negotiation, improve the knowledge about the actions of suppliers, and improve intercompany and supplier cooperation.
- This will ensure that in future procurement negotiations; better outcomes are achieved.
- ROSHN should ensure that all negotiations within the next 6 months include specific metrics for delivery timelines, quality standards, and service levels, aiming for a 90% satisfaction rate in supplier compliance with these criteria. This approach will help secure more balanced and sustainable agreements.
- Over the next 12 months, ROSHN should develop a supplier relationship management program with bi-annual assessments to track and improve partnership quality. Target at least a 15% increase in supplier engagement scores by the end of the year to gain favorable bargaining positions during market downturns.
- Within 1 month of each major negotiation, conduct debriefing sessions to analyze performance, identify strengths, and address weaknesses. The goal is to improve negotiation effectiveness by at least 10% in the subsequent quarter through targeted adjustments based on these evaluations.
- Within the next 4 months, involve at least 80% of key stakeholders in sourcing strategy meetings to ensure alignment and gather input on critical decisions. This engagement aims to reduce misalignment issues by 20% within the year, resulting in smoother implementation of sourcing strategies.
