Confirming what “Al-Siyasa” reported on the front page of its May 18 issue under the headline “A Paperless Government in Three Years,” “Al-Siyasa” learned that the Court of Audit approved, yesterday, a conditional approval for contracting project contract No. (67) for the “Paperless Government” initiative, awarded to the Central Agency for Information Technology, with a value of KD 9.813729 million instead of KD 9.992 million, after achieving total savings of USD 578,654, equivalent to KD 178,701, as a result of the Court’s review, which led to a reduction in the Google market fee rate for the required (Sight DXP LN) licenses from 3% to 1.5%.
The Central Agency for Information Technology had previously obtained approval from the Central Tenders Committee last May to award the project to an international company for a three-year period. The government aims, through this project, to enhance service levels by leveraging the latest technologies in communications and information technology.

The project contributes to achieving an important development plan program focused on developing an integrated and transparent government. Digital transformation of government operations and services is one of its core policies, alongside digitizing all transactions of government entities and ending paper-based documentation and transactions. This enhances the efficiency of government services through an advanced, secure, and scalable digital infrastructure that improves system reliability and facilitates integration with other digital platforms.
