Muscat--- The projects, Tenders and Local Content Authority, in cooperation with the Office of the Governor of A’Dakhiliyah, will organize the second "Governorates’ Ambassadors" Forum this coming Tuesday, 23 December.
The three-day event is part of ongoing efforts to enhance institutional integration and exchange expertise among various government entities.
Eng. Said bin Hamad Al Amri, Director General of Tenders at the Authority, explained that the forum provides an opportunity to bolster the capabilities of local cadres and develop work tools within governors' offices. This aligns with the trend toward empowering governorates to exercise broader powers under the decentralization framework, contributing to balanced and sustainable development across Oman.
In a statement to Oman News Agency (ONA), he added that the forum—which includes officials, engineers, and specialists overseeing government projects in A’Dakhiliyah—aims to build effective communication channels. It focuses on exchanging best practices in contracts, tenders, and project management, while supporting local content to achieve integration in government work and reviewing major developmental projects implemented in the governorate.
The forum’s agenda includes several specialized sessions and workshops. The second day is dedicated to field visits to witness progress on key projects. The final day will conclude with technical workshops.
The "Governorates’ Ambassadors" Forum held its first edition in Muscat and will continue to rotate periodically across different governorates. This step aims to unify practices, develop institutional work tools in contracts and tenders, and support local content.
The organization of this forum embodies the approach of good governance, solidifying principles of transparency and integrating national efforts to enhance the efficiency of government performance throughout the Sultanate of Oman.
