For AD Ports Group's customers and partners, the launch of IHQ will progressively improve the speed, efficiency, and customer-centric nature of the Group's service offerings across its portfolio of Ports, Economic Cities & Free Zones, Maritime & Shipping, Logistics, and Digital Clusters.
Captain Mohamed Juma Al Shamisi, Managing Director & Group CEO, AD Ports Group, said: "Over 20 years, AD Ports Group has grown from an Abu Dhabi-focused ports operator into a global trade enabler offering a full range of ports, transport, logistics and industrial solutions. Investment in a solid digital foundation has made this possible. With IHQ, we are building on this foundation to create an enterprise that continuously assists our ability to think, learn and evolve as a global business. Under the wise guidance of our leadership in the UAE, IHQ will leverage AI as a force multiplier for our people, in support of the 2031 National Strategy for AI."

IHQ will focus on integrating AI capabilities deep into the enterprise workstreams of the Group, improving efficiency, decision making, and customer service, through a perpetual improvement process that speeds the profitable expansion of the business.
At the time of the launch, IHQ features a number of transformed workflow demonstrations across workstreams, including port and berth optimisation, vessel arrival orchestration, software development and talent acquisition.
Over the coming months, IHQ will enable systematic augmentation of AI across AD Ports Group's 20 workstreams, multiplying the Group's operational capacity.
