In a major move, the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MoEI) has activated the digital signature and verification feature in its UAE Pass for engineering project contracts.
This will allow consultants and contractors to use the UAE Pass to sign electronically on bids and contracts, while maintaining the highest level of information privacy and protection.
During the announcement, Suhail bin Mohammed Al Mazrouei, the Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, said: “The move aims to automate the services pertaining to engineering projects contracts. It reflects the keenness of the MoEI to keep pace with the digital transformation and leverage modern technology solutions to simplify its processes and improve the experience of its customers.”
“Digital transformation is a key enabler of shaping a better future that aligns with our leadership’s aspiration of making the UAE one of the most digitally advanced countries in the world,” he stated.
“At MoEI, we seek to adopt innovative tools and ways to improve our performance and offerings, in line with the Emirates Programme for Excellence in Government Services,” he concluded.
