Digital Civil Registry

The project for the interconnection and modernization of civil registration, identity, and vital statistics processes aims to interconnect and modernize the processes of civil identification, civil status registration, and the generation of base information for vital statistics by strengthening institutions (interconnection between the Ministry of Public Health (MSP), National Civil Identification Directorate (DNIC), and the General Directorate of Civil Status Registry (DGREC)) and the electronic issuance of new certificates, indexing, and digitization of existing records.

This project corresponds to the Civil Status Registry Management System (SGREC), which consists of automating the processes related to the registration of acts and facts linked to the civil status of individuals and the issuance of certificate copies. The system includes interconnection with other systems through the Electronic Government Platform. The project scope includes system development and infrastructure management (communications, security, backup, among others).

Additionally, within the project, the SGREC Web (Digital Certificates on the Internet) was implemented, whose objective is to simplify the procedure for requesting and issuing birth, acknowledgment, marriage, divorce abroad, and death certificates. The incorporation of this system allows citizens to obtain certificates easily, quickly, simply, and free of charge in digital format, which have the same validity as paper-format certificates. During the document issuance process, the citizen can directly download the certificate from any device or request that the document be sent to their email account.

 The validity of each document is based on the digital signature, which guarantees the legitimacy of the document issuance and leaves a record of the issuer. Additionally, it certifies that the document has not been altered by external agents outside the civil registry.

Digital Certificates of Origin

The Digital Certificate of Origin (COD) within the ALADI framework consists of a set of specifications, standards, and technical procedures that form the basis of an IT infrastructure, composed of applications and electronic documents, which enables the recognition of CODs within ALADI.

This project aimed to continue the process initiated with the development and implementation of a Digital Certificate of Origin System (SCOD) in order to strengthen, improve, and technologically optimize the system’s functionalities in the operation of digital certificate of origin for member countries, through a service of technical excellence with the required level of quality, security, and availability.

The scope of the project included the analysis and redesign of the SCOD, preparation of associated documentation, user training, technical assistance, and evolutionary maintenance of the system.

Educational Geographic Information System - El Salvador

It includes the georeferencing of educational centers and allows citizens to search for them using different criteria.

The SIGES consultancy consisted of building an information system that centralizes student data at the national level and includes information on students from Early Childhood Education to Secondary Education in its various service modalities. This system was developed by the Ministry of Education of El Salvador and benefits both the educational community and the general public.

SIGES is composed of 8 interoperable modules: Students, Educational Centers, Educational Site Staff, School Documentation, Educational Statistics, Integrated Systems, School Finances, and Management Information System.

Additionally, tools were developed and implemented to benefit the national education system, including:

• Launch of 2 mobile applications (for teachers and family guardians)
• Enablement of online procedures
• Incorporation of 4 Public Portals (Educational Sites Portal, Educational Sites Map, Open Data Portal, and Educational Statistics Portal)
• Incorporation of verifiable QR codes for Secondary Education diplomas.
• Incorporation of Simple Electronic Signature.

The system has implemented interoperability mechanisms through Tenoli (the interoperability solution based on X-Road).

Citizen viewpoint

This project aims to make transparent the information about the projects and works carried out by the Uruguayan State. This system obtains data from various project management systems and presents it in different formats, such as on a map, in data sheets, through photo albums, among others.

Montevideo Project Viewer

This solution is based on the Siges tool. Siges is a publicly accessible tool, provided by Agesic and developed by Sofis Solutions (SP 15/2013), which allows the monitoring and control of an organization's programs and projects.

With this application, any citizen can use the system to manage their project, overseeing the main knowledge areas: schedule, scope, procurement, risks, stakeholders, collaborators, quality, among others.

Live Birth Certificate

This system enables the management of the electronic issuance process for the live birth certificate. The system is used by doctors across the country, who, by electronically signing the certificate, generate a record in a centralized database at the Ministry of Public Health and submit a request to the Civil Identification Directorate to reserve the newborn’s identity document number.

In this way, an identification is assigned to the newborn, and vital statistics data can be obtained in real time.

This project was selected as a pilot project for the Electronic Government Platform, as it includes a web services layer that is consumed by various agencies that need to be informed of the existence of a new person in the country: Civil Registry Office, Social Security Bank, among others.

Single Registry of State Trials

The general objective of the information system is to identify, classify, and quantify all legal cases involving the State, whether as plaintiff, defendant, third party, guarantor, among other roles.

It is a collaborative tool in which various agencies of the Uruguayan State participate, registering legal cases and their associated data (hearings, precautionary measures, rulings, economic data), managing a shared calendar, and an alert system.

The project is led by the Ministry of Education and Culture and financed by the Budget Management Strengthening Program of the Ministry of Economy and Finance.
