(HBO) – As part of efforts to step up the application of information technology (IT) in State agencies, over the past years, the People’s Committee of Hoa Binh province issued regulations and policies to develop IT application, creating a favourable legal environment for the application and development of IT in the province.
To date, 100 percent of departments, agencies, People’s Committees of
districts and Hoa Binh city have had host computers, local area networks (LAN)
and broadband Internet. A special network for data transfer among Party and
State agencies have been launched in 63 agencies, 33 of which are provincial
departments, agencies, district- and city-level People’s Committees.
The province’s database centre has been upgraded with 13 servers and
equipment meeting the requirements of managing the infrastructure system for IT
application and the launching of shared software as well as online public
services.

Committee of Tan Vinh commune, Luong Son district, apply IT in their work.
Over the past years, e-office software has been installed in all local
departments and agencies as well as all district- and city-level People’s
Committees, and 80 percent of communes in the province, making a giant step
towards in the management and governance work. The exchange of e-documents has
been increased, including notes, invitations, announcements of conclusions,
internal documents, work timetable, official dispatches, and legal documents,
thus reducing costs for paper, document and time, and enhancing labour
productivity.
All departments, agencies, and district- and city-level People’s
Committees have applied digital signatures and the exchange of documents signed
with digital signatures on the Internet.
Currently, over 80 percent of direction and management information from
leaders of the province and departments, agencies and districts have been
updated in the online portal and websites of units. Meanwhile, 95 percent of
internal documents of agencies and units, including invitations, draft
documents, and meeting documents have been exchanged online without using
paper, and 90 percent of official documents among agencies have been sent
online together with paper documents. Some 30 percent of official documents
have been exchanged among state agencies through the Internet, without using
paper documents.
The application of IT in dealing with administrative procedures have
been promoted, helping to speed up administrative reform and enhance the
openness and transparency of State agencies’ operations, aiming to earn
satisfaction from locals, organisations and enterprises.
So far, the shared software for one-stop-shop services have been applied
in the provincial public administrative centre, connecting 100 percent of
provincial departments and agencies, and district- and city-level People’s
Committees.
The sending of applications for administrative procedures among relevant
agencies and units has been implemented on the network system. The online
portal for public services of the province has provided 2,020 public services
at levels 1 and 2, while all online services at level 3 and 4 have been
gradually supplied, including 317 services at level 3 and four others at level
4./.
