(Executive Summary)
X Medical Company is a Saudi limited liability company concerned with the specialty and Sub-
Specialty healthcare services.
The company has realized that a gap does exist in the Saudi healthcare market and has identified
that the healthcare provided to patients with musculoskeletal disorders is significantly under-
served.
In addition to the niche of Orthopedic sub-specialty, we believe that the level of quality of
patient care and services are not satisfying patients. Thus, we believe that the hospital will be
differentiated through its high quality of services and customer satisfaction regarding medical
and non-medical services.
The Orthopedic Specialty Hospital is the first operating division of the (XMC). This hospital
will be distinctively designed, constructed and operated as a high quality medical care facility in
the field of orthopedic surgery and its related disorders in Saudi Arabia.
A project team has been established in order to create and implement the project plan. The
project team has decided to establish the Orthopedic Specialty Clinic. This decision has been
made in order to increase the probability of success of the project by developing and testing
processes and building a team of orthopedic specialists that establish a working relationship. In
addition, the clinic will give the newly formed team of doctors’ exposure to the patients and
hopefully a reputation that will benefit the hospital when it opens.
Mission Statement:
We are focused on serving our patients by providing exceptional care in every Bone & Joint sub-
specialty in accordance to the highest International Quality Standards. We will be the role–model
in our work ethic towards our patients, family, & healthcare team.
Hospital Vision

Long-Term Goals
The Company aims to expand its business by focusing on the development of multiple
Orthopedic Specialty Hospitals in the kingdom and beyond. Its aim is to become the trusted
source by patients throughout the Middle East.
The healthcare market in Saudi Arabia in general and the Western Province in particular is
expanding and will have significant growth.
Demand for Orthopedic specialty medical services is rapidly increasing.
The current market does not provide a sufficient level of sub-specialty orthopedic
healthcare.
The market will witness significant alterations in the size, structure, regulations, demand
and supply.
From the above market findings, the opportunity available is clearly significant. It is apparent
that a gap between supply and demand exists in the market and this gap is expanding as the
market is changing and growing. The only way to fulfill this gap is to establish orthopedic
specialty healthcare facilities that offer high quality of services to patients.

The Hospital Key Appeals:
Marketing strategy:
The hospital will adopt a marketing strategy that will be a mixture of a Niche and differentiation
strategies. The hospital will capitalize on the added value of sub-specialty centers and their
ability to offer better patient services both medical and non medical. In addition to this, the
hospital aims to be the first patient focused but market driven hospital in Jeddah through our
competitive strategies and core values.
Competitive strategy:
We realize that there are several players in the market and we are comfortable to capitalize on
our niche: orthopedic sub-specialty and our differentiation strategy that will translate into quality
patients' services and care.
Although we believe in the accuracy of our strategy and in our approach to the market, we will
maintain respect for all other healthcare service providers and we look forward to ethical, fair
and constructive competition that will improve the quality of healthcare services in the market.
We have a smart competitive strategy that capitalizes on our strength and gives adequate
consideration to the markets threats.
Target costumers:
In addition to orthopedic patients, we aim to satisfy the patients’ families and the patients’
visitors; we will build partnerships with insurance companies and companies with large numbers
of employees. Meanwhile, we aim to build constructive relationships with the ministry of health
and the regulatory agencies.
In order to attract patients to our hospital, we will continue to focus on effective patient care.
However, we will track our patient satisfaction with a research team focused on effective
communication and patient satisfaction. We will continue to develop the criterion that will
enable us to reach our target patients.
