Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has approved 50,567 No Objection Certificates (NOC) Applications as part of the Soqoor program
“The Transmission Power division at DEWA has approved 26,383 NOC applications, the Distribution Power has approved 17,597 NOC applications, and the Water & Civil division has approved 6,587 NOC applications,” said Hussain Lootah, Executive Vice President of Transmission Power at DEWA.
It is the first government program of its kind to evaluate consultants and contractors in Dubai and identify their compliance to the requirements, standards, terms and conditions, and guidelines when submitting NOCs service applications and field operations for their projects.
The Soqoor program enables consultants and contractors to get DEWA’s approval to provide services from the first time of submitting the applications, reducing violations and avoiding fines, as well as saving time and efforts. This makes field operations safer and protects DEWA’s assets and its services.
The Soqoor program creates a healthy competition among consultants and contractors to ensure their compliance with the highest quality, safety, and excellence standards.
The program is related to the corporate performance which is based upon scientific standards such as the quality of applications, and respecting DEWA’s assets.Â
