The DDCI (District and Department Competitiveness Index) is a powerful tool designed to assess the economic governance capabilities of district and department administrations in Ho Chi Minh City. By adopting this framework, the city aims to enhance the quality of public services, improve the business and investment environment, and foster sustainable economic development.
In 2024, the DDCI survey methodology will employ a hybrid approach, utilizing online platforms and direct interviews with businesses, cooperatives, individual business households, and strategic investors.
For departments and sectors, the DDCI comprises nine components: Transparent Information Access and Digital Transformation; Informal Costs; Time Costs; Equal Competition; Business Support Services; Legal Institutions; Dynamism, Creativity, and Unit Performance; Green Index; and Health and Living Environment Index.
Meanwhile, for local areas, the DDCI includes ten components: the previously mentioned nine, plus Land Accessibility and Stability in Land Use.
Implementing the DDCI in Ho Chi Minh City offers significant advantages. It enables the city to gauge the satisfaction of businesses, investors, individual business households, and cooperatives operating within its boundaries. This valuable feedback helps administrative agencies identify strengths and weaknesses, leading to targeted improvements in public services and the business environment. Moreover, by measuring and evaluating governance effectiveness, the DDCI contributes to enhancing the city’s Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) annually, fostering competition and driving administrative reforms and improvements in business-related procedures.
