15-07-2014 18:27:29 | Armenia | Science and Technology
Yerevan, 15 July 2014 - A two-day national workshop on the role
of Single Window and IT systems for full implementation of the
e-governance concept is organized in Yerevan within the framework of
the UNDP implemented "Enhancement of the Border Management Capabilities
at Bagratashen - Sadakhlo BCP between Armenia and Georgia" (BSIBM)
project.
The objective of the workshop is to familiarize representatives of
relevant border management agencies in better detail with measures
required for introduction of the e-governance system by applying the
Single Window principle and up-to-date IT solutions. The workshop
is facilitated by Mr. Arvo Ott, Managing Director of the Estonian
E-Governance Academy.
Ambassador Traian Hristea, Head of the EU Delegation to Armenia,
welcomed the participants and stated that introduction of the Single
Window/One Stop Shop principle at the national level will largely
complement general efforts towards the development of a national
e-governance system as well as major reforms in the border management
sector, including infrastructure development and modernization
of border crossing points. "EU always stands ready to support the
Government of Armenia in implementation of its reform agenda, and
share its vast experience particularly in the area of e-governance and
introduction of its components at the national level using appropriate
IT solutions and procedural approaches", he added.
Grigori Malintsyan, UNDP IBM Programme Manager, noted that introduction
of the Single Window/One Stop Shop principle will be a significant step
forward to achieve the defined reform goals in the border management
sector and ensure compliance with relevant international standards.
Aram Tananyan, Acting Chief of Staff of the National Security Council
of the Republic of Armenia, expressed an opinion that comprehensive
introduction of the Single Window system in Armenia will enable
simplification and streamlining of border crossing and customs
procedures at border crossing points in order to avoid duplication
of functions and unnecessary controls.
The "Provision of Equipment and Infrastructure for the
Bagratashen-Sadakhlo Border Crossing Point between Armenia and
Georgia and Enhancement of their Capacities" project is implemented
since December 2013 with the financial support of the European Union
and contributions of the Governments of Armenia and Georgia. The EU
funding is EURO 3,582,500.
