H.H. Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed approves DAFZA’s ‘Digital Intelligence Plan’
H.H. Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Airport Freezone
Authority (DAFZA), has approved DAFZA’s ‘Digital Intelligence Plan
2018-2020’ developed in line with digital transformation initiatives such as
the ‘Dubai Internet of Things Strategy (IOT)’ and the ‘UAE Strategy for
Artificial Intelligence,’ the first major initiative within the UAE
Centennial 2071 project.
The new plan was developed in partnership with Deloitte Consulting LLC, and
is in line with both DAFZA’s ‘Strategic Plan 2017-2021’ and ‘DAFZA
Innovation Strategy,’ the latter supporting DAFZA’s stature as one of the
most innovative and progressive free zone in the world in accordance with
the objectives of the ‘National Innovation Strategy’ which aims to make the
UAE one of the world's most innovative countries by 2021.
H.H. Sheikh Ahmed emphasized the importance of technological development and
the adoption of modern technologies in various fields in supporting the
transformation of Dubai into the smartest and happiest city in the world.
H.H pointed out the role of the various institutions and entities in the
Dubai in achieving the wise leadership’s vision for modern technology and
digital wealth as represented by the ‘Dubai Internet of Things (IOT)
Strategy’ and the ‘UAE Strategy for Artificial Intelligence’ which was
launched in October 2017 by H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice
President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
H.H also praised DAFZA’s pioneering role in improving services and
establishing a creative, innovative and highly productive work environment
which provides exceptional experiences for foreign investors as clearly
reflected by the growth of Dubai’s GDP. H.H said that DAFZA has become a
major economic development player in the emirate.
His Excellency Dr. Mohammed Al Zarooni, Director General of DAFZA, noted the
importance of the support of the leadership through which national
strategies and initiatives for adopting the latest and most advanced
technologies have been launched. H.E Al Zarooni said “We are grateful to our
leadership for always inspiring us to succeed and do our best. Through their
support and encouragement, we have always been confident of our success and
have surpassed the goals we have set to move forward.”
“The new digital intelligence plan reflects DAFZA’s commitment to advancing
the approach of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who underscores
the importance of taking advantage of technological solutions to accelerate
government workflows in various fields and promote the UAE as a leading
model for countries that invest in the future and work to acquire its
tools,” H.E added
H.E. Dr. Al Zarooni further expressed the significance of the plan in
developing creative talents and adopting a new operational model that turns
the wheels of innovation and achieves sustainable development, in line with
the leadership’s vision of making the UAE one of the best countries in the
world. He affirmed DAFZA’s commitment to strengthening its major economic
role at the local and national levels by taking the lead in supporting
‘smart’ progress, technology and innovation. H.E added that DAFZA will be
the first free zone to offer an innovative strategy adopting the objectives
of the Dubai Internet of Things and UAE Artificial Intelligence Strategies.
“We look forward to turning DAFZA into an innovative, world-class free zone
based on a scientific methodology and a clear vision for achieving ambitious
goals and aspirations driven by advanced and future technologies. We aim to
boost the development process and take a steady step towards shaping future
in the UAE,” H.E Al Zarooni concluded.
To establish an integrated and sustainable digital system, DAFZA’s new
strategy is based on three main areas ‘Operational Model,’ ‘ICT Services,’
and ‘Technology Platform Revamp.’ DAFZA has also approved several
initiatives for implementation from 2018 to 2020 and will update the
organizational structure of its information and communications technology (ICT)
management which will be launched under the name ‘Digital Intelligence
Management’ to enhance internal partnerships and achieve digital
sustainability. Operational efficiency will be upgraded as well.
The Operational Model of DAFZA’s ICT management is structured from an
operational management system, a foundation of managed services,
partnerships and resources, efficient upgrading of human capital skills, as
well as increasing revenues through ICT services.
Under ICT Services, DAFZA will introduce new mechanisms using new
technologies and various points of contact to help provide unique services
to customers. Technology Platform Revamp, on the other hand, is based on the
fundamental principle of how to meet the needs and requirements of business
with the latest technologies and systems without compromising information
security. This will be done through the establishment of an integrated
defense system that effectively addresses the threats and challenges of
modern technology.
International experiences indicate that every 20 percent increase in ICT
investments leads to a growth of more than 1 percent in the country's GDP.
This has motivated DAFZA to develop its smart services and establish itself
as an influential player in promoting the prosperity of the national economy
and GDP growth. DAFZA has developed its ICT plan and looks forward to
developing its future business and enhancing the impact of digital
transformation on the economy and sustainable development by investing in
artificial intelligence techniques and tools and applying them in various
fields to enhance the UAE's global position as one of the best countries in
the world in terms of AI investments in different vital sectors, this will
help ensure sustainable development and happiness for future generations.
In line with its strategy of developing and adopting everything new and
advanced in the world of free zones, DAFZA will introduce new mechanisms and
different contact points to deliver the best services for enhancing customer
relationships. It will also conduct a detailed study on the possibility of
providing all internal and external services through an intelligent and
smart management centre that will use smartphones and many other channels.
The possibility of automating routine processes through artificial
intelligence techniques will be studied as well.
