T h e I d e a :
Our project and idea is to provide the consumer
with an online platform where ONLY the
appliances that are designated as efficient are
sold.
We will work with different sectors in the
government to provide greatdiscounts to
consumers who purchase the appliances from our
website. Additionally, the Saudi citizen who
actively purchases high efficiency appliances will
receive a discount on his/her electricitybill.

4. WIN-WINSITUATION
E v e r y o n e i s b e n e f i t e d
• This deal will not be a burden on the
government because when
people use efficient appliances, they will consume
less energy,
thus the government spending on energy will be
less.
• It is merely a process of shifting the funds
from spending on
energy to spending on people, which is
eventually better
utilizationof the money.
7
FOR THE GOVERNMENT:
• More people use efficient appliances
• Less energy consumption
• Better spending of funds.
FOR THE CITIZENS:
• Getting a high quality and efficient

5. appliance with a reduced price
• Reduction in the electricity bill for
active participants
• Sense of contribution to the
environment, and participation in
the national initiatives

PROCESS BREAKDOWN

• The user chooses the appliance and purchases it
with the discounted price
Consumer Purchase
• The store will receive a notification about
the transaction and will package and prepare
the shipment
Procurement
• The logistics company will deliver the appliance to
the costomer's location and collect the
delivery symbolic fee

6. • The transaction will be forwarded to the
government to pay the difference of the price
back to us to forward it to the vendors
Compensation
• The names of participants will be logged by
their Saudi ID number and will be sent to
the Saudi ElictricityCompany to put their
properties on the list of reduced bills.

The Saudi 2030 Vision has a broad goal to reduce energy
consumption. One of the main reasons for energy loss is
inefficient
home appliances. They are cheaper and easier to purchase,
however,
they increase the electrical bill on the consumer.
This initiative is designed to help the consumer purchase highly
efficient appliances by motivating them with discounts on the
purchase price and a reduction on the electrical bill.

Business Case Expected Goals/Deliverables
After finishing the project, the platform should :
- Allow the consumer to see different appliances from different
vendors that are high efficient Including their prices and the
amount
shouldered by the government.
- Be integrated with the vendors system to allow real-time
update of
inventory
- Be integrated with the National Information System to allow
linking the amount of purchases to the consumer ID and
therefore be
eligible for electricity bill reduction.
- Be integrated to the Saudi Electricity Company system to
allow
active participants to request reduction in their bill
Risks & Constraints
Risks that might face the project are:
- Shift in the government direction to reduce energy
consumption
(Very low)
- Resistance from the private sector to import high efficiency
appliances (Very low)
- Resistance from Saudi consumers to purchase highly efficient
appliances (Low)
- Refusal of the government to fund the program (Low)
- Refusal of the different sectors to integrate their systems with
the

8. project (Mild)
- Lack of participation from the Saudi Electric Company in the
initiative to avoid losing revenues (High)
Milestones
The project milestones are:
- The negotiations with different stakeholders will start early
January
2020 and end on mid February.
- Upon agreement, the contracts between the project team and
stakeholders will be signed on 20 February 2020
- The software will be finalized and tested on 23 March 2020
- The go live of the project will be on 24 March 2020
