Housing Ministry Boosts Digital Transition, Service Delivery with Laptop Distribution to Directors<\/p>\n
In a renewed push for public service reform and a paperless government, the Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development has rolled out laptops to Directors to fast-track full deployment of its Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system.<\/p>\n
At the Ministry\u2019s Top Management meeting held in Abuja, the Permanent Secretary, Dr. Shuaib Belgore handed over 30 units of Core i7 laptops systems to all Directors\/Heads of Departments in order to boost service delivery, among others<\/p>\n
According to the Ministry’s Director of Information and Public Relations, Badamasi Haiba, the distribution forms part of the Ministry\u2019s commitment to a continuous digitization of official workflow, enhancing productivity, and ensuring seamless integration of the ECM platform across all departments.<\/p>\n
Speaking during the meeting, Dr. Belgore emphasised that the initiative was in fulfilment of the earlier promise to provide the necessary digital working tools to enable Directors’ work efficiently both on-premise and remotely.<\/p>\n
He noted that the laptops would empower Directors to work effectively anytime, anywhere, aligning with the Ministry’s ECM deployment and the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation’s (HCSF) digitalization directive, as part of the Ministry’s compliance with OHCSF reforms and strategy initiatives.<\/p>\n
Configured by the Ministry\u2019s ICT Department, the laptops come pre-installed with office suite applications and smart security solutions to support workflow automation and secure access to the ECM system.<\/p>\n
Dr. Belgore also noted that this digital upgrade will significantly improve turnaround time, and enhance transparency and accountability in all official activities.<\/p>\n
Earlier in his remarks, Dr. Amiolemen Marcus, Head of the ICT Department, disclosed that 90 desktop computer systems, similarly configured, will be distributed to departments and offices across the Ministry before the end of the week to further strengthen the ECM rollout.<\/p>\n
Recall that the Ministry officially went live on the ECM platform on September 30th, 2025, marking a significant step forward in its digital transformation journey, and placing it among the pacesetters in the public service digitalisation initiative.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
