Abu Dhabi Waste Management Center has adopted electronic approvals for No Objection Certificates in Abu Dhabi for all requests that require technical reviewing by specialists in charge of issuing approvals related to infrastructure construction, building, and development projects. This allows clients, including consultants, contractors, or developers, to acquire an NOC from the Center electronically without the need to visit or submit any paperwork, which will improve efficiency, reduce costs and efforts, and simplify operations and procedures related to NOCs for clients in all sectors.
The system is the first of a comprehensive series of basic and complimentary services covering main and supporting operations related to municipal approvals, which are required for facilities and infrastructure construction and development projects in Abu Dhabi.
The use of the NOC’s electronic approval system for facilities and infrastructure came after the Center conducted a study to evaluate the current NOC services and their elements in relation to facilities and infrastructure services, defining the requirements for these services during the various stages of any given project, and adding them into the system. The Center ensured the services’ compliance with the Abu Dhabi Quality and Conformity Council’s -ADQCC regulations regarding the infrastructure requirements for municipal solid waste collection and transportation services for specific categories of waste producers, which will be applied by consultants, contractors, and developers as required by the Center when submitting paperwork.
His Excellency Dr Salem Al Kaabi, Director General of Tadweer said, “In line with the strategies and directives of our wise leadership regarding the digital transformation of services, we linked the procedures for NOCs at the Center with the unified system at the Department of Municipalities and Transport. This comes in line with the emirate’s policy of facilitating business and reducing the time needed for receiving services to achieve the requirements of a competitive and pioneering business environment in Abu Dhabi, as well as develop a safe digital environment that protects data and information systems.”
