Oman governorate implements e-government initiatives

The governorate of Musandam in Oman has signed three agreements in efforts to implement e-government initiatives.

Firstly Musandam municipality will provide telecommunication and internet services with Omantel, the Oman telecommunications company.

As per the agreement, Omantel will work to achieve compatibility between network communications systems and internet lines and integrate them, which will enable the office to manage them in one entity and facilitate its technical management.

This cooperation will contribute to raising the quality of government services, reducing communication costs, and enhancing the efficiency of government spending.

The agreement was signed by Sayyid Ibrahim bin Saeed al Busaidi, Governor of Musandam and Talal bin Saeed al Maamari, CEO of Omantel.

Musandam also signed up Moshi Haidar Darwish IT Company to implement a project to rehabilitate and upgrade infrastructure and electronic IT systems. The project will enable the governorate to manage its electronic services and networking lines.

The third and final project entails the provision of electronic service portal and management systems for internal and non-municipal services.
