What The Expert Team & Partner For Professional Consulting does

The Expert Team & Partner for Professional Consulting (ETG) is a private professional services firm headquartered in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, founded in 2018. The firm operates as a multi-disciplinary advisory platform organized across seven service categories: Strategy & Transformation; Transactions and Corporate Finance (including sell-side and buy-side advisory, capital structure optimization, financial/operational/commercial/legal due diligence, valuation, and SPA review); Assurance (financial statement audits, compliance audits, forensic services, agreed-upon procedures); Consulting (process optimization, operational excellence, procurement, logistics, risk management, change management, HR transformation, talent management, workforce planning); Tax (planning, compliance, objection and litigation, indirect and direct tax including VAT, excise, Zakat, and corporate tax); Managed Services (financial accounting, corporate reporting, compliance); and Technology & Digital Transformation (IT strategy, enterprise architecture, data & analytics, cybersecurity). The firm is anchored by Founder Abdul Wahab Mohammed Al-Ajroush (~three decades in financial services) and PhD. Firas Atallah Al-Shahwan (28+ years in politics, accounting, and finance), and serves a horizontal mix of enterprises and organizations across the Middle East, with a visible client base that includes government-linked Saudi entities (Matarat, SCAI, AlSudais), infrastructure and real estate firms (Argan), and international corporates (Rosatom).

Underlying technology is not disclosed — ETG is a pure services business without a proprietary platform, API, or software product. The firm's core "technology" consists of proprietary methodologies for organizational transformation, digital transformation advisory, and operational excellence, as well as deep institutional knowledge of Saudi regulatory mechanics (VAT, Zakat, corporate tax). The website (etg.co.com) functions as a marketing and content channel, featuring an Insights section on topics such as feasibility studies, financial control, VAT, and fixed asset management, plus a downloadable firm profile.

ETG generates revenue through professional services engagements delivered on a quote-based, scope-tailored basis; no public rate card or pricing tiers are disclosed. The go-to-market motion is direct enterprise sales and consultative relationship-driven outreach, supported by content marketing through the firm's Insights blog and direct consultation requests via phone and email. Revenue is concentrated under a single stream (professional consulting services) with no disclosed productized offerings, subscription revenue, or software monetization. Customer segmentation is horizontal — organizations of all sizes across industries — rather than verticalized. The firm operates from a single Riyadh office with 45 employees and no disclosed expansion into additional geographies.
