Al Rafay Consulting was an outstanding partner in developing our internal pipeline tracker. They took a detailed upfront inventory of the team’s existing tools and processes, as well as areas our overall system could improve. ARC was extremely communicative throughout the development process and instrumental in the successful launch. They created helpful training videos and materials and exhibited thorough follow-through on post-launch feedback. We appreciate the opportunity to work with such an experienced and diligent partner on an integral piece of our business.

BioMed Realty engaged ARC 7 years ago originally to kick start an internal SharePoint campaign with the goal of increasing productivity through workflow automation. We’ve now grown our work with SharePoint into a full blown Business Intelligence platform that has created tremendous efficiency and value for our organization. ARC has been a vital and integral partner in helping us identify areas of our business that benefit from centralization of critical business data and helping us design powerful tools that enabled real time reporting across various platforms. It has, and continues to be a pleasure working with ARC’s knowledgeable team of professionals.

When we were looking to design and implement our new website, ARC was an invaluable partner. ARC assisted us in selecting a flexible platform and implementing our design ideas into a website that we can easily manage and update as we grow our business. ARC listened to our needs and facilitated the project on time and within our budget!

Al Rafay Consulting went above and beyond to give us the Event Management tool that we needed to take our organization to the next level. We were in the middle of system development when the COVID-19 pandemic devastated our business. Al Rafay anticipated our needs and partnered with us in order to keep the project moving and ultimately implemented our “go live” in the midst of the most troubling times our business has encountered. Ali and his team developed an events management platform for San Diego Theatres, sat side by side with us while learning our industry and business model, and through it all exhibited patience, collaboration, and resolve to get it done. They truly developed a solution for us, at times knowing what we needed better than we did, that is process-driven, scalable, and sustainable for our future.

Working with ARC over the past 3 years has been nothing short of exceptional. The team has everything that you would look for in a consultant and then some. A vast knowledge of their core business as well as a hunger to learn new industries and skills has proven to be a critical aspect of our partnership. ARC have taken on the student housing industry full speed to develop what I would consider one of the deepest understandings reporting measures of the consultant space in the Student Housing industry. Working together to develop new means to analyze data via API integration into our property management software (Entrata) has given the Executives and Employees of CA Ventures a new way to view information real time, and it’s all thanks to the ARC and their dedication to the continued success of our partnership, and any partnership they enter in.
