Muscat - The Vision 2040 Implementation Follow-up Unit is working in cooperation with the relevant authorities to implement the directives of His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik to establish follow-up offices in all government agencies to have an integrated approach toward achieving the vision's objectives.

Dr. Khamis bin Saif al Jabri, Head of the Vision 2040 Implementation Follow-up Unit, said that the Royal directives to establish offices are aimed at ensuring that all concerned parties play their roles in achieving the objectives.



He said added that the unit has held several meetings to establish and activate vision offices in government institutions, and it will play its role in ensuring the accurate follow-up of the operational plans necessary to achieve the performance indicators of the vision in government agencies, managing follow-up mechanisms, and diagnosing and addressing challenges.

The Follow-up Unit for the Implementation of Oman Vision 2040, in cooperation with the Ministry of Labor, has worked on developing a model for structuring its offices, terms of reference, work mechanisms, a framework for knowledge transfer, mechanisms for building programs, developing their indicators and following up on their implementation, in addition to addressing the challenges associated with establishing its offices in government agencies.

The unit also held workshops to transfer knowledge to the vision offices of government agencies and launched a program to develop the capabilities and skills of their employees, in addition to preparing work environments in the relevant authorities in order to activate the role of these offices.

More than 40 government agencies out of 59 have benefited from these workshops so far.

The role of the vision offices is to make the planning departments in the concerned authorities more closely linked to the vision’s targets and national programs and to qualify a working team capable of carrying out the tasks of planning, follow-up, and institutional communication in an effecive manner.
