 H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, has approved the plan to resume assessments for the 2020 edition of the Dubai Government Excellence Program, DGEP. The assessments for the Program, which were earlier scheduled for February and March 2020, had been postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreak.

The assessment for the categories of Leading Government Entity and the Elite Award will now take place from 27 January to 21 February 2021. Entities will be assessed according to a new assessment model.

H.H. Sheikh Hamdan said the new plan implements the directives of Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum to accelerate Dubai’s progress by keeping pace with global changes and taking advantage of the opportunities they bring. ''The Dubai Government Excellence Program has played an instrumental role in enhancing government services over the last 23 years. Constant efforts to improve quality are key to achieving Dubai’s future aspirations,'' H.H. noted.
