In a significant move to bolster transparency and efficiency in government transactions, President Irfaan Ali announced the upcoming launch of four innovative applications designed for the private sector to interact with the government. The announcement was made during the commissioning of the SOMA Hotel & Restaurant, a flagship project by TOTALTEC Group, located in Houston, East Bank Demerara. President Ali emphasized that these apps would enable a ‘transparent, productive, and efficient’ process for conducting government business, while also ensuring accountability among officials through digital tracking mechanisms. The system is engineered to detect and prevent malpractices, reinforcing trust in public administration. A collaborative meeting between government representatives and the private sector is scheduled in six weeks to officially roll out the apps. President Ali highlighted that this initiative reflects the government’s commitment to accountability and leveraging technology for sustainable growth. The SOMA Hotel & Restaurant, developed by TOTALTEC, is set to create 60 to 100 direct and indirect jobs, supporting local suppliers and aligning with Guyana’s workforce development goals. The project is part of a broader vision to expand affordable, high-quality hospitality services across Guyana, catering to business travelers and industrial clients. TOTALTEC, a Guyanese-owned company established in 2016, has been instrumental in advancing local content and sustainable development, having trained over 6,000 individuals for careers in the oil and gas industry.
