Our leadership unceasingly supports the march of excellence, which is nothing short of essential in today’s contemporary world.”
This came in a statement by His Highness Sheikh Saif in the wake of the honoring ceremony for the winners of the third edition of the Minister of Interior’s Excellence Awards. During the ceremony, which was held on Tuesday at the Police Officers Club in Abu Dhabi, His Highness launched the Smart Development Program for the award. “Today, the UAE police face a significant challenge as they prove that police work is truly synonymous with culture, innovation, sophistication and excellence” His Highness said; as he reiterated his assertion that police institutions are the most effective after gaining the trust of the people and the satisfaction of the customers.
His Highness Sheikh Saif hailed the distinguished recipients of the award and the participating individuals, teams, and institutions for the efforts exerted to win, to take part in the process, or in some cases, do both.
“Today we celebrate the winners of the Minister of Interior’s Excellence Awards,” said HE Lt.

I call upon you to understand just how comprehensive this award is in terms of advancing the march of creativity.” He continued by highlighting how the award requires integrated performance across three categories, “which contribute to the sustainable institutional development driven by quality and excellence in performance – a prevailing factor of positive change and development that has been cultivated by the Ministry.” His Excellency pointed out how the Minister of Interior’s Excellence Award complements the Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Government Excellence Award in the endeavors made to elevate the levels of service, and to develop the standards of comprehensive quality and performance across all sectors of the Ministry of Interior.
The Deputy Chairman of the Dubai Police and General Security explained that the Minister of Interior’s Excellence Award embodies the strategy of the Ministry, and the aspirations of His Highness, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior. His Excellency said that both notions aim to: motivate the employees of the public and private sectors to pursue excellence and innovation; serve to develop a sense of positivity within the public; encourage competition for the Mohammed bin Rashid Government Excellence Award; and promote cooperation between police institutions and the various segments of society.

He pointed out that the MoI relentlessly strives to achieve its aspirations through a strategic vision that emphasizes efficient work so that the UAE will become one of the world’s safest and most secure countries.
He said that the award has further spurred the implementation of international concepts and standards of police excellence, and has created a spirit of competition between the various sectors, leadership, and personnel of the Ministry. “The award has allowed the personnel of the Ministry to demonstrate their skills and achievements in the service and development of police work. This has been exemplified through winning the nationwide Distinguished Internal Performance Improvement Team award, a category of the 2014 Mohammed bin Rashid Government Excellence Award,” he said.
Major General Dr. Abdul Quddous Abdul Razzaq Al Obaidly, General Coordinator of the Minister of Interior’s Excellence Award, said that the launch of the award in 2011 provided a framework and approach to governance and motivation.

Lt. Colonel Dr. Ali Bin Daen Al Ghafli, Head of the Organizational Excellence Department at the Directorate General of Strategy and Performance Development at the General Secretariat of the Office of H.H. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, gave a speech. He said, “Our celebration today comes as part of our long chain of successes, and we will continue our endeavors on every level at the Ministry of Interior. The Ministry has taken it upon themselves to place excellence and success as the only option; they have encouraged teamwork, dedication, and the belief in the sanctity of this ideal to be carried within the future vision of the police leadership. They have established the culture of excellence as an actual practice in institutional and operational performance; which is exemplified in the decision to launch the 2011 Minister of Interior’s Excellence Award in a bid to set the comprehensive framework for institutional excellence and competition between the various sectors, commands, teams and personnel within the MoI. The goal is to be first place in terms of international security excellence systems.”
He said that the award has further spurred the implementation of international concepts and standards of police excellence, and has created a spirit of competition between the various sectors, leadership, and personnel of the Ministry. He reiterated that the award allowed the personnel of the Ministry to demonstrate their skills and achievements in the service and development of police work; which has been exemplified through winning the nationwide Distinguished Internal Performance Improvement Team award, a category of the 2014 Mohammed bin Rashid Government Excellence Award, and the intellectual property certification from the UAE Ministry of Economy.

The number of international awards won by the Ministry increased from five in 2013 to 15 in 2014.
