Financing of digital transformation in Armenia difficult to assess as effective - Head of Audit Chamber

YEREVAN, December 18. /Atom Janjugazyan, head of Armenia's Audit Chamber, characterized the level of financing of digital transformation as "inefficient." 

"The level of implementation of the digitalization strategy is low, none of the 10 planned activities was implemented on time and in full. The strategy itself is also difficult to assess as comprehensive: it lacks measures for digital transformation in sectors of the economy and public administration, has no timetable and does not specify responsible persons. Instead, individual agencies develop and implement strategic measures for different sectors," Janjugazyan said in the parliament.  

According to him, despite the fact that the strategy is included in the state budget, there is no single program that would include all small programs, and because of this the financing of the strategy implementation is effective.  

He also noted that the changes implemented by the Ministry of High Technology Industry are mostly not in line with the whole spectrum of the state's ideas on digitalization. --0--
