Ethiopia’s Digital Bureaucracy Faces Reality Check as EU-Funded BEIC Project Wraps Up

Ethiopia’s Digital Bureaucracy Faces Reality Check as EU-Funded BEIC Project Wraps Up

An ambitious, four-year EU-funded project to roll out a robust e-governance infrastructure that reduces the unease of doing business in Ethiopia concluded late this week. The Business Environment and E-Government Project (BEIC), a technical and institutional collaboration, marked its ceremonial close at the Skylight Hotel.

Certain components of the €7.2 million program will continue to phase out over the next three months, allowing the beneficiary public institutions to navigate the digital corridors on their own.

Implemented by GIZ in collaboration with McKinsey & Company, the Project set out to digitize Ethiopia’s convoluted and paper-intensive business bureaucratic ecosystem. One of the most ambitious undertakings under BEIC was the development of the Integrated Company Creation Journey (ICCJ). Designed to consolidate over ten disparate processes into a unified, paperless workflow, the ICCJ platform promises to collapse Ethiopia’s notoriously bureaucratic business registration procedures into a streamlined digital experience.

According to Elie Sawaya, Key E-Government Expert at BEIC, the platform is technically complete and ready for deployment. However, it remains offline, pending security clearance from the Information Network Security Agency (INSA).

“Everything is ready,” Sawaya told Shega. “But because this is a core application used by government institutions, INSA must conduct critical security validations. Once cleared, the platform will go live and simplify business creation across the country.”
