Implementing Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW of the Politburo, Son La province is synchronously and drastically implementing tasks and solutions to promote science and technology activities, innovation and digital transformation in all fields, meeting the requirements of operating two-level local government.
Training for cadres and civil servants of communes and wards to apply specialized construction software.
Science and technology, digital transformation are the "backbone" of operating the two-level local government. The province has deployed many solutions to ensure infrastructure, processes and resources for providing public services in the new model, creating maximum convenience for people and businesses. One of the core contents is to build and maintain shared data systems and ensure interconnection from the central to the commune level, especially the systems on population, electronic identification and public service portals. Ensure uninterrupted communication to communes and wards; deploy installation and create over 1,500 accounts for collectives, cadres and civil servants of 75 communes and wards to use the Operational Management Information System in Party agencies.
Comrade Nguyen Ngoc Tu, Chief of the Provincial Party Committee Office, said: The Provincial Party Committee Office organized an online conference to the communes to train and guide the installation and use of the Operational Information System software in Party agencies. This is the core digital infrastructure to improve the efficiency of staff work, document processing, work assignment, progress monitoring in a fast, accurate, economical and transparent manner... helping to operate anytime, anywhere, safely and securely.
The province has directed the construction of industry databases; issued a list of shared databases of the province; focused on perfecting institutions and policies, prioritizing the assurance of resources in the fields of science and technology management and digital transformation. Since the beginning of the year, the state budget has allocated nearly 160 billion VND for science and technology development. Currently, the province is continuing to review and supplement its budget and propose additional central budget for digital transformation tasks. Announce a list of major problems in science, technology, innovation and digital transformation; direct the Department of Science and Technology to guide agencies and units to propose tasks to be implemented in 2025 and 2026.
Up to now, communes and wards have been assigned headquarters, invested in equipment, established and operated the Public Administration Service Center according to the new model. The province has handed over transmission channel security equipment, data and key security equipment to serve the local government at 2 levels to put into operation. Initially, communes and wards have accessed the Handbook for implementing Plan No. 02-KH/BCĐTW dated June 19, 2025 of the Central Steering Committee on Science and Technology Development, Innovation and Digital Transformation on promoting interconnected, synchronous, fast and effective digital transformation to meet the requirements of reorganizing the apparatus of the political system; proactively updating implementation information according to the training instructions on using the monitoring system for the implementation of Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW on the website.https://nq57.vn/.
Chieng Mung Commune Administrative Service Center handles administrative procedures for the people.
Along with that, a list of requests for digital certificates was made for organizations and individuals to serve the operation of the Public Administration Center; initially, administrative procedures for people were implemented such as: Issuing birth certificates, certifying copies from originals, establishing and operating businesses, land, etc.
However, the implementation process still faces difficulties due to the lack of synchronous digital infrastructure, specifically: Some remote, border areas have difficulties in telecommunications and internet infrastructure, and there is no national grid, affecting the ability to access and deploy scientific and technological activities, digital transformation and the construction and operation of technological equipment and information systems. Currently, there are 64 villages that do not have 4G waves; about 10% of communes lack digital signatures; 9% of communes have inadequate infrastructure; 6% of communes have unimproved software. Most of the officers in charge of advising on science, technology, and digital transformation at the grassroots level are part-time officers, leading to slow and inaccurate implementation of tasks and operations of technological software...
Mr. Tran Thanh Tung, Deputy Director of VNPT Son La, said: The unit is mobilizing human resources to directly support communes in configuring and checking the network lines serving the document management system, operating the local government at 2 levels; at the same time, making efforts to increase mobile coverage in the area. According to the 2025 plan, VNPT will broadcast 159 5G stations; 49 4G stations; of which, there are 10 stations for white signal areas, among the locations that the province and the Central Government are interested in directing.
With the drastic participation of the entire political system in implementing Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW, contributing to the effective operation of the 2-level local government model to ensure progress and set goals; determined to make science, technology, innovation and digital transformation truly become important driving forces, breakthroughs to promote the province's socio-economic development rapidly and sustainably.
