PEIE’s efforts were recognised when it received the Sultan Qaboos Award for Excellence in e-Government for the Best e-Project Individual for the Estate Management System project in 2012.
Commenting on services offered by PEIE, Ali Al Harthy, acting director of IT Department at PEIE, stated that the department is currently geared up to develop several electronic services.
"eProspect service aims at providing online investment application for potential investors to apply via the Internet from any spot worldwide. This service informs potential investors of the offered services and allows the concerned departments to follow up with the investment applications promptly and send the investment offers," Al Harthy said
He also pointed out that PEIE offers eMap service, which allows individuals and institutions to view the leased and available spaces in the various industrial estates that fall under the umbrella of PEIE. eMap, which is designed to build a geographic mapping system that displays integrated maps of PEIE’s estates, also views details of the tenants that exist in the estates. It provides details of the tenants’ locations (lands, buildings and offices).
"Moreover, eTenant service serves the existing PEIE tenants as the companies can update their profile including details and view their rent and services’ payment status. They can also submit observations, complaints and suggestions about any issue," Al Harthy said.
He further said that PEIE also offers eDirectory service, which allows individuals and ogranisations to view details of operating companies under the umbrella of PEIE including contact details, types of products and locations.
PEIE constantly works to offer cutting edge services through its website (www.peie.om) for various segments including investors, business owners, PEIE employees and the public.
