DNRD unveiled a series of automated services for its customers at Gitex 2008 that were developed to meet the remit of Dubai e-Government, which is working towards establishing an e-Society in Dubai. Innovative services, such as mobile visa service 'M-Visa,' self-service kiosks, a facial recognition system and Amer service for registering complaints, drew the attention of high profile visitors and technology experts.

DNRD also honored its strategic partners and sponsors that contributed to the success of the department stand, including DIFC, DATEL Systems and Software, Emirates Computers, Avaya and CNS.

"Our accomplishments at Gitex this year have proved the importance of team work and the need to join hands with various partners to successfully achieve a common objective,"


said Major General Mohammad Ahmad Al-Merri, Director General of DNRD.

"On this occasion, I would like to sincerely thank our partners for supporting us this year, and hope that they will continue their association with us in the future."

During the past years, CNS has helped DNRD by establishing a specialized data center that operates 24-hours a day to enhance the department's e-Services workflow and efficiency, in addition to providing technical and advisory support.

"We are thrilled by our partnership with DNRD during Gitex which proved to be very successful," said Rami Amin, Local Government Industry Sales Manager at CNS.
