The Government of Uzbekistan by its June 5 resolution has approved the Development Strategy for the Information and Communication Technologies of the State Tax Committee, the press service of the Committee said.

It provides for the tasks such as modernizing the data center and telecommunication apps, acquiring servers and software, transferring all information systems to a single platform, improving the quality of e-government services, and processing big data quickly.

“As a result, additional revenues to the budget of up to 20 trillion soums are expected,” the statement said.

The document is intended to solve a number of problems and targets, including:

  • insufficient size of available data base;
  • achieve server utilization by 90%;
  • increasing corporate network speed through increase in the number of electronic services by 3.8 times and electronic systems by 2.5 times;
  • dispose of a large database as a result of integration of various information systems;
  • lack of a single platform.

Modernization of the data center will increase the speed of data processing and analysis by 10 times, the level of confidentiality of database information - by 100%, the volume of the information database - up to 1 petabyte.

One of the main objectives of the strategy is the introduction of Business Intelligence and Big Data technologies. It is expected that they will expand the big data processing and analysis systems, reduce the level of “shadow turnover” and increase the tax base.

The transfer of information systems of tax authorities to a single platform will prevent the load on the database and facilitate the process of filing tax reports by 5-7 times, noted the State Tax Committee.

An increase in the number of electronic services provided to taxpayers will reduce the human factor in relations with tax officials by 60%. “This will not only prevent corruption, but also drastically reduce paperwork,” the department concluded.
