Membership Application

RBC membership asks detailed information from our members with 13 pages of data that resides on an SQL server with state-of-the-art data mining and warehousing technology. All of this has been accomplished by our in-house Iraqi IT experts and it is maintained by their capable, quality knowledge. Our IT team makes it possible for us to continue to improve and update our database by reflecting on the needs of the marketplace and our members.

RBC database includes a detailed categorization of member companies according to the standards of the SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) and the NAICS (North American Industrial Classification System). This allows us to locate instantly any supplier we need; for example, all spare parts suppliers in the city of Ramadi, Iraq that are members of RBC.
