The Ministry of Industry and Commerce was recognised yesterday for its high-performing Metal Testing Center, which earned a prestigious Golden Shield under the government's flagship service evaluation initiative, 'Taqyeem 5'.
The shield was presented by Dr. Shaikha Rana bint Isa bin Duaij Al Khalifa, Director General of the Institute of Public Administration and Vice Chair of the Government Service Centers Evaluation Committee, in the presence of His Excellency Abdulla bin Adel Fakhro, Minister of Industry and Commerce.
The Metal Testing Center achieved Gold Category status in the latest round of the 'Taqyeem' programme, which benchmarks public service quality across the Kingdom.
The award highlights the centre's progress in raising standards of customer service and operational efficiency.
H.E. Fakhro attributed the achievement to the support of His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, stating that such backing has been a key driver of systemic improvement across government entities.
He also commended the team at the Metal Testing Center for their commitment to innovation and service delivery, calling the unit a 'distinguished model' of government performance.
'This achievement reflects our dedication to performance development and digital upgrading of services,' H.E. Fakhro said, adding that it aligns with the broader goals of public satisfaction and responsiveness.
