Quảng Trị province’s Ministry of Science and Technology (MoST) recently proposed the transfer and appointment of personnel, including a new director for the Digital Transformation Center. This move comes as the province’s Digital Transformation Index (DTI) is relatively low, ranking 61st out of 63 provinces and cities.
Transfer and Appointment of Digital Transformation Center Director
According to the proposal, Nguyễn Thị Lệ Hằng, director of the Information Technology and Communications Center (Digital Transformation Center), will be transferred to the Deputy Head of the MoST Office on March 20th. She will be appointed as the Head of the Office on June 1st. The MoST also proposed Trần Thanh Hà, Deputy Director of the MoST, to oversee the Digital Transformation Center while a new director is being selected.
Causes and Solutions for Digital Transformation
The proposal referenced an incident where MoST leaders visited the Digital Transformation Center on Women’s Day (March 8th), with most staff members absent. This incident reflects existing issues with management and adherence to administrative rules and regulations within the Center. Quảng Trị’s low DTI score necessitates finding a competent, experienced, and qualified Digital Transformation Center director to drive digital transformation in the province.
Assessing Weaknesses and Improving Strategies
Quảng Trị’s DTI currently ranks 61st out of 63 provinces and cities. The low staff attendance during the MoST leadership visit points to inefficiencies in coordination, management, and adherence to regulations within the Center. The MoST has identified these weaknesses and proposed solutions, including appointing a new, qualified director, and fostering a strong workforce to accelerate digital transformation.
Investing in Digital Transformation
The proposal highlights the need for a highly capable, experienced, and qualified Digital Transformation Center director. This appointment will play a crucial role in boosting and improving Quảng Trị’s DTI, contributing to its overall development. Investing in the leadership and skilled personnel of the Digital Transformation Center is vital to enhancing operational efficiency and achieving digital transformation goals.
Conclusion
The transfer and appointment of personnel, especially the Digital Transformation Center director, demonstrate the MoST’s commitment to raising the province’s DTI and promoting digital transformation. This is a crucial step in Quảng Trị’s effort to improve its national standing in the digital transformation race.
