Bacolod City is leading the way in digital transformation, making government services faster and easier for everyone. Under the leadership of Mayor Albee Benitez, the city is implementing innovative solutions that enhance efficiency, convenience, and inclusivity for its citizens.
One notable initiative is the introduction of QR codes for senior citizens and persons with disabilities (PWDs). These QR codes streamline processes for them to claim benefits, saving time and effort by removing long lines and manual processes.
The city has also adopted facial recognition technology for employee time-in and time-out processes. This approach eliminates manual logging, reduces the potential for errors, and enhances accountability within the workforce.
In addition, Bacolod has significantly advanced its ease-of-doing-business initiatives by streamlining processes for permits and licenses. Digital platforms now enable faster transactions, cutting down processing times and encouraging more investments in the city.
Bacolod continues to prioritize innovation as a tool for progress, cementing its place as a digitally forward city ready to meet the demands of the modern era.
