The Information Technology department in K&A was originally assigned the role of building, and continuously upgrading, the information tools, infrastructure and services that enable timely and effective answers to all K&A management visions and requirements.

In 1978 K&A Management took a very brave decision in adopting the computer in automating and executing the internal financial work, also in helping the Engineering staff in their different design departments solving their sophisticated calculations and design problems. Accordingly, many engineering programs were developed and the MIS was introduced by the created Data Processing Department. In 1987 the department was renamed as "The Computer Department" and was assigned the task of automating the Engineering design and drafting work on the newly introduced PC platform.

In 1998 the department was restructured with its duties and responsibilities expanding and thus renamed as the "Information Technology" (IT) department.

Under the full supervision, administration and control of the IT Department K&A has now more than 500 PC and Unix workstations, two hundreds of which are located in Beirut Head Quarter Office, all networked and open to Internet, Intranet and Extranet facilities. This highly sophisticated setup is handling all kinds of Engineering, MIS, financial, GIS, CADD and communication work.

Keeping K&A as the main client, the available capability and the gained know-how are utilized to serve our clients in the IT engineering field, communication, financial and management applications.
