MIDDLE EAST time . We adhere to ISO 9000 , and we ’ ve invested a lot of time and effort into training employees and upping our standards . With the kind of people we work with – like BP – and others in the oil and gas world , if you don ’ t comply with certain criteria , you can ’ t really be in the business . A big focus for us is improving our ISO certification .”

While the business will certainly grow further , Douglas ’ s goal is for SKA to continue to develop within the territories in which it ’ s already wellknown : “ We ’ re continuing to focus on those areas , and see opportunity for growth in all of them . The amount of investment that ’ s going on for infrastructure , oil , and gas projects has been cut significantly in the last six-12 months . However , we still see huge opportunities for SKA , especially in these developing markets . We ’ re very confident that where we are , we ’ ve already made significant investments and will see the returns on that over the next few years .”
