ABU DHABI: The Abu Dhabi Housing Authority (ADHA) is showcasing its latest digital services and initiatives aimed at advancing the housing sector in the emirate during its participation at GITEX Global 2024.
The event, renowned for highlighting cutting-edge innovations from key international technology organisations, also provides an opportunity to explore new advancements that can elevate the government housing sector and enhance the overall experience for citizens in Abu Dhabi.
ADHA is participating in the event under the Abu Dhabi Government’s pavilion, where it is offering an immersive, comprehensive digital experience for visitors to engage with their housing journey. This includes the entire process, from submitting applications to accessing housing benefits through the ‘ISKAN Abu Dhabi’ app.
Additionally, ADHA has partnered with Teyaseer, a company that provides free services to beneficiaries of housing loan programmes. Through this partnership, citizens can seamlessly navigate the home-building pro
cess using Teyaseer’s digital platform, which provides comprehensive services covering all stages of construction, from identifying requirements to the final delivery of the house.
ADHA is also set to introduce a new feature on its digital platform, enabling citizens to ‘express’ their housing preferences for current and future locations and projects. By registering their interest, they will receive priority access to housing benefits in the selected areas, provided they meet ADHA’s criteria.
Moreover, this service will also help the government optimise resource allocation by concentrating housing developments in areas with high citizen demand. The feature is expected to officially launch before the end of the year.
ADHA seeks to enhance its offerings by introducing automated systems for the residential land exchange between citizens, making the entire process fully digital. Additionally, the Authority is working to expand this service by allowing eligible citizens to choose from a range of available land
options for exchange. These options will be presented to citizens directly or sourced from the government inventory. The entire process can now be completed through the ISKAN Abu Dhabi application.
Hamad Hareb AlMuhairi, Director-General of Abu Dhabi Housing Authority, said, ‘The Authority’s participation in the GITEX Global 2024 comes as a key part of our strategy to showcase our digital offerings and forthcoming smart solutions, designed to streamline access of housing benefits for citizens.’
‘GITEX provides an ideal platform for engaging with stakeholders and specialists, gathering feedback from the public regarding ADHA’s services, and ensuring our services continue to meet the evolving needs of our community. This aligns with our strategic vision of creating a sustainable housing system that fosters family cohesion and stability,’ he added.
