Bangladeshi tech company Orange Business Development Limited (Orangebd) has been awarded digitalization projects in the Philippines.
“Orangebd is working on technical assistance for various e-governance projects of the Philippines government. Already, 14 citizen and business-related services of 20 municipalities out of 123 municipalities in a state in the Philippines have been digitalized,” Orangebd CEO Al-Ashraful Kabir Jewel told a press briefing at Dhanmondi Club in Dhaka on Wednesday.
The company’s directors, Hafez Ahmed and Shamim Hossain, and PR Officer Shahriar Shams were present on the occasion.
The CEO informed that Orangebd is also working on the development of the Programme and Project Monitoring System of the National Economic and Development Authority, an institution under the President of the Philippines.
The Philippines Interior and Local Government Minister and UNDP Resident Representative are scheduled to inaugurate the project on January 23 next year.
According to the official, digital services will be implemented in all municipalities in phases under the project, while all citizen and business-related services will gradually be brought under the scope of digital transformation.
