The Tahkeem platform builds a complete digital governance framework for your arbitration center — compliant with Saudi and GCC arbitration laws, and aligned with UNCITRAL and ICC international standards.
Institutional governance in digital arbitration refers to the technical and procedural controls that ensure every case is managed with accountability, transparency, and regulatory compliance. A properly governed arbitration center maintains an immutable record of every action, enforces strict access boundaries between parties, manages arbitrator conflicts of interest systematically, and produces audit-ready documentation that satisfies oversight bodies and courts. The Tahkeem platform builds this governance architecture into the system itself — not as an add-on, but as the foundation on which all operations run.
Six controls that protect procedural integrity and satisfy institutional oversight requirements
Every action in every case — document access, status changes, communications, decisions — recorded with timestamp and user identity in an uneditable log that meets evidentiary standards.
Systematic declarations and checks for arbitrators before each assignment — with documented conflict disclosures, recusal records, and replacement workflow.
Parties, arbitrators, and staff each operate within precisely bounded access — no cross-case visibility, no unauthorized document access, no role boundary violations.
Deadline management aligned with your center's procedural rules — automatic multi-level alerts, escalation workflows, and a complete timeline record for every case.
Platform configured to reflect the Saudi Arbitration Law (Royal Decree M/34), GCC regulatory requirements, and recognized international arbitration rules including UNCITRAL and ICC.
Executive compliance dashboards, audit-ready caseload governance reports, and documentation packages for institutional oversight bodies and regulatory submissions.
Institutional governance in digital arbitration refers to the controls that ensure procedural integrity, accountability, and regulatory compliance in every case. This includes immutable audit trails, role-based access segregation, conflict-of-interest management, deadline compliance tracking, and governance reporting — built into the platform architecture rather than added as an afterthought.
Yes. The platform is configured to align with Saudi Arbitration Law (Royal Decree M/34) and its implementing regulations. Procedural stages, notification requirements, deadlines, and documentation standards are mapped to the requirements of the law. The platform also complies with the Saudi E-Transactions Law for electronic signature and digital document validity.
An immutable audit trail is a permanent, uneditable log of every action in every case — including document access, status changes, communications, and decisions — recorded with timestamp and user identity. This log meets evidentiary standards and cannot be modified by any user, including administrators. It is the primary mechanism for procedural accountability in institutional arbitration.
Before each assignment, arbitrators complete structured conflict declarations through the platform. The system checks for disclosed conflicts, records recusal decisions, and manages the replacement workflow. All declarations and outcomes are documented in the case record and included in the audit trail — creating a fully defensible conflict management paper trail.
Yes. Data handling, retention, and access controls are designed to comply with Saudi Arabia's Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL). The infrastructure meets NCA (National Cybersecurity Authority) framework requirements, including AES-256 encryption, role-based access controls, and complete audit logging. Centers operating under PDPL obligations receive a compliant data processing environment by default.
Yes. The platform can be configured to reflect UNCITRAL Model Law procedural requirements, ICC Arbitration Rules, and ICSID procedural standards. Centers accepting international cases can configure separate procedural tracks for domestic and international disputes — each with its own rules, notification standards, and documentation requirements.
