When and why was DGE established?
The Department of Government Enablement – Abu Dhabi was established in September 2023 by law issued by His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, in his capacity as Ruler of Abu Dhabi. This involved the merger of several strategic functions in human resources, corporate services and procurement, customer experience, digital infrastructure, and strategic affairs within Abu Dhabi Government. Its creation addresses a key challenge: to help enable Abu Dhabi Government to operate as one and serve more effectively — reducing duplication, streamlining systems, and creating consistent, people-first experiences.
I’m a business owner — how can I register for government procurement opportunities?
You can register as a vendor and access opportunities through the Abu Dhabi Procurement Gate. It streamlines the tendering process and helps UAE-registered businesses, including small and medium enterprises (SMEs), engage with government more easily.
What is Tahadath and how can I report a concern safely?
Tahadath is DGE’s official reporting channel for violations. It allows employees to safely report misconduct or unethical behaviour with full confidentiality and without risk of retaliation, disciplinary action, or discrimination.
Who can use TAMM and how does it benefit residents and businesses?
TAMM is open to citizens, residents, investors, visitors, and business owners. It facilitates access to over 1,100 services across both public and private sector partners — from housing and education to business registration, licensing, and more — all in one place. It eliminates the need to visit multiple departments or submit repeated documents by integrating services under one platform — saving time and streamlining the customer experience.
What is ADERP and who uses it?
ADERP is Abu Dhabi Government’s shared enterprise resource planning platform. It centralises and automates finance, procurement, and HR operations across government entities — increasing transparency, efficiency, and accountability.
How does Mawaheb support Emirati jobseekers?
Mawaheb is a national platform that connects Emiratis to job opportunities across both public and private sectors. It uses intelligent skills-matching, enables access to career development resources, and helps align national talent with labour market demand.
How does DGE support other government entities?
At DGE, we see ourselves as the team behind the teams. We build shared digital infrastructure, develop and deliver talent management programs, set governance and policy standards, and ensure all Abu Dhabi Government entities have the tools they need to focus on their core missions — whether that’s service delivery, community development, or economic growth.
FAQ
Who should I reach out to for platform-specific issues (e.g. TAMM, ADERP, Mawaheb)?
Each platform has its own support channel. You’ll find the relevant links and helpdesk contacts at each platform’s webpage.
Does DGE work with private sector partners or startups?
Yes! DGE collaborates with the private sector — including technology providers, SMEs, and innovation partners — to co-develop platforms, pilot AI use cases, and scale digital solutions that improve government operations and services.
What’s the difference between DGE and other digital or technology departments?
DGE is not a service delivery department or IT helpdesk. It operates behind the scenes, supporting Abu Dhabi Government entities to deliver strategic platforms and initiatives, shape public sector workforce policy, manage digital infrastructure, and lead Abu Dhabi’s broader transformation into an AI-native government.
