Tawoos LLC was established in 1982 by His Highness Sayyid Shabib bin Taimur Al Said. Initially the company concentrated on trading interests in the defense and hydrocarbon industries, but gradually the focus turned towards developing businesses to meet the rapidly growing service sector. The organization grew by the adoption of foreign business ideas and management and then converting this foreign expertise into locally based management to reduce costs and improve local effectiveness. Tawoos is utilizing Intelex's Business Performance Management System.
