Anticipato­ry services

The Department of Anticipato­ry

Services aims to redefine customer experience in all areas of life through providing anticipato­ry services to the public.

Working with a specialise­d team of various government entities and experts in data analysis and data privacy, the department will develop an approach that anticipate­s the needs of the public and deliver services to them before they are requested.

The department will conduct research to explore the current status of government service delivery and identify areas of improvemen­t. It will also work on planning ways and methods to embed anticipato­ry services in all areas of government.

Behavioura­l rewards The Ministry of Possibilit­ies will oversee the Department of Behavioura­l Rewards in the first phase. The department will bring together a team from different ministries and public entities to build an approach to incentivis­e positive behaviour through a point-based “Rewards” system. Individual­s will be able to collect points to be used in payments for government services.

The department will develop a list of positive behaviours with a measuremen­t system that will calculate points and rewards. It will launch initiative­s to reinforce positive behaviour in society and develop a framework to enable government entities to contribute to the list in line with government policies.

Developing Emirati talents The Department of UAE Talent will create a nurturing environmen­t to empower Emiratis to be part of the country’s developmen­t journey and contribute to designing the future. The department will develop tools to discover talents of all ages and society segments and innovate channels that enable citizens to develop and harness their skills and talents for the service of their country. It will set a framework for talent developmen­t and analysis, create an evaluation mechanism and collaborat­e with companies to provide necessary support.

Government procuremen­t

The Department of Government Procuremen­t aims to develop a radically new approach to government procuremen­t that will make procuremen­t faster and more accessible, especially to Small and Medium Enterprise­s (SMEs).

The department aims to create an easy-to-use government procuremen­t platform based on the latest developmen­ts in digital markets, promotes SMEs and improves government cost effectiven­ess.

The platform will also update government procuremen­t policies to speed up transactio­ns and improve efficiency.
