In-Country Value

 

Overview:

In-Country Value (ICV) is economic value added from local operations and spend retained in the country. ICV is measured using a formula that captures how much out of your revenue you contribute back into the economy. This formula specifically measures the retained in-country contribution from local purchases, developing local human and business capabilities, and establishing capital investments.

ICV rewards bidders based on their contribution as it provides them with a commercial advantage when bidding for a tender in the Energy sector.

As part of “Projects of the 50”, the UAE government has launched the In-Country Value Program (ICV) on a federal level, which will be implemented under the supervision of the Ministry of Industry & Advanced Technology, contributing to increased demand on local goods and services, promoting local capabilities and attracting foreign direct investment towards the local industrial sector. The ICV program witnessed great success since its launch in the emirate of Abu Dhabi in 2018.
