Unified In-Country Value


The Unified In-Country Value (ICV) programme for Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADED), Aldar Properties and Abu Dhabi Ports was implemented with three key objectives: improve employment opportunities for Emiratis in the private sector, facilitate GDP diversification and localize critical parts of the supply chain. All legal entities require an ICV certificate to participate in tenders of over 60 entities of the Abu Dhabi government, ADNOC, Aldar, Abu Dhabi ports, Mubadala, and the Emirates Nuclear Energy Association. The ICV score is assessed vis-a-vis the previous financial year.

As an approved certifying body, MBG Corporate Services helps you obtain your Unified ICV certificate quickly. Our dedicated team of experts are experienced in issuing ICV certificates across various industries and can conduct the assignment both remotely and onsite.
