About

A consultancy the size of one senior professional, with the systems of something much larger

HYA Business Management is a process, software and AI consultancy based in Dubai. We work with companies under a few hundred people — large enough to have real operational complexity, too small to interest the firms that would charge for it.

We do one thing: we make businesses work better, and then we build the systems that keep them that way.

The founder

Patrick Parmeggiani

Founder · patrick@hyamanagement.com

Twenty-five years across corporate structuring, operations, cost control and software. Fifteen of them as a financial advisor, and the rest building and running companies — which is a different education entirely.

In the Emirates since 2006. Long enough to have watched several waves of consultants arrive and leave, and to know which providers still answer the phone in August.

I have spent my career on the same question in different forms: why does this company work, and why does that one only look like it does. The answer is almost never the people. It is almost always the system underneath them. Patrick Parmeggiani, Founder

What he actually does, day to day: maps processes, designs the redesign, specifies the software, and stays until it runs. Clients deal with him. Not with an account manager who forwards their questions.

How we work

Four commitments, and one of them is about what we don’t do.

One senior contact

Not a team of juniors with a partner who appears at the kick-off and the invoice.

You own what we build

Processes, configurations, documentation, code. No lock-in and no dependency on us to keep operating.

We work inside our licence, and we say so

HYA is licensed for computer programming (6201.00), management consultancy (7020.00), cost control and risk management (7020.85) and human resources consultancy (7490.14). Company formation, accounting, tax filing and PRO services are regulated activities performed by licensed providers — we advise on structure and coordinate those providers; we do not replace them. It is a distinction some firms are vague about. We would rather be clear.

We finish

A process that exists only in a document is a document.

The system behind it

A firm this size should not be able to stay current across six jurisdictions.

We do it because we built ourselves the same kind of system we build for clients.

Roughly 1,150 structured documents covering the UAE, Italy, Monaco, France, Hong Kong and China. Five AI advisors trained on those collections. An automated regulatory watch that reads the official legislative sources every week and reports what changed.

It is not a marketing claim. It is the reason the answer to a client question is usually the same day. We have also written the method down.

Where we work

Delivered from Dubai. The work travels.

A process redesign does not care about time zones. Where a jurisdiction needs someone on the ground, we bring in professionals we have worked with for years, and we stay accountable for the result.

The United Arab Emirates is tax neutral, politically stable, and has the infrastructure and banking access to work as an operating base rather than a letterhead. That is why we are here, and why we have stayed.

Questions we are asked

About the firm

How big is HYA?

Deliberately small: one senior professional accountable for every engagement, supported by a network of specialists brought in where a jurisdiction or a technology requires them. The scale that matters is not headcount but the knowledge system behind it — roughly 1,150 structured documents across six jurisdictions, with five AI advisors and an automated weekly watch of official legislative sources.

Where is HYA registered?

HYA Business Management LLC FZ is registered in Meydan Free Zone, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, under trade licence 2418702.01. The registered address is Meydan Grandstand, 6th floor, Meydan Road, Nad Al Sheba, Dubai.

What is HYA licensed to do?

Four activities: 6201.00 computer programming, 7020.00 management consultancy, 7020.85 cost control and risk management services, and 7490.14 human resources consultancy. Anything regulated outside those — company formation, accounting, tax agency, payroll processing, PRO services, real estate brokerage — is performed by licensed providers we advise on and coordinate.

What languages do you work in?

English and Italian for delivery and documentation. The published guides exist in eleven languages.
