Sharjah DeG shares digital expertise at SAP forum

Sharjah / Emirates Business

As part of the SAP Innovation Day held in Sharjah, Noor Ali Al Noman, Director of the Sharjah Department of eGovernment (DeG), addressed an assembly of senior public sector officials and commercial executives from around the region about Sharjah’s phenomenal success in transforming the government’s operations into a digital format.
The audience heard how different forms of technology can power innovation and digital transformation, and the effect that has had on the efficiency and effectiveness of Sharjah’s communications, dramatically reducing time and costs. Al Noman, who spoke at a panel discussion titled “Enabling Digital Transformation” at SAP Innovation Day, described the integration as a revolution in terms of productivity. “This transition has played an essential role in terms of Sharjah’s progress on a wider economic wider scale,
its scope of services, its proficiency among departments and its consolidation of resources. Without this conversion from a hard-copy based system to a digital format, it is impossible to move forward.”
Acting as moderator, Pedro S. Pereira, Digital and Innovation Leader at SAP EMEA South, also asked Al Noman about what innovations and solutions were needed to ensure momentum of Sharjah Government’s rapid, radical transition.
