Currently, all 4 new wards have completed upgrading their information technology infrastructure, ready for digital transformation and e-government implementation in the coming time. The systems have been synchronously connected to receive, process and return administrative procedure results smoothly" - Mr. Binh informed.
According to Mr. Nguyen Tran Binh, in addition, personnel arrangements are also being carried out urgently. The team of professional cadres and civil servants has been reasonably rearranged, coordinating with cadres in the old wards to take on positions at the new public administrative center.
The processes for receiving and processing documents have been reviewed and assigned clearly, to avoid overlap and ensure uninterrupted service to people.
To ensure the effectiveness of the new system, District 11 has coordinated with the Ho Chi Minh City Digital Transformation Center to organize training on professional skills and use the administrative management system for all cadres, civil servants and ward leaders.
Up to now, 100% of cadres working at public administrative centers have completed the training program, ready to receive and handle administrative procedures according to the new model.
