The Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) brought home 11 awards during the Anti-Red Tape Authority’s Report Card Survey (ARTA RCS) Awards recognition night last October 30 at the Conrad Hotel.
The ARTA RCS Awards were given to government agencies who successfully implemented the RCS 2.0 and performed excellently during the audit conducted by ARTA for the 1st cycle / 1st phase implementation in 2023. As mandated by Republic Act No. 11302 or the Ease of Doing Business and Efficient Government Service Delivery Act of 2018, the RCS 2.0 assesses the efficiency and delivery of government services in the Philippines.
For this year, 12 PEZA offices were inspected and 11, including the head office and 10 zone offices nationwide, were recognized for their exemplary implementation of various ease of doing business measures as determined by the Report Card Survey (RCS).
The RCS is anchored on the following aspects of government service: service delivery; communications; access and facilities; and, payment and processes.
Overall, PEZA was recognized by ARTA as the third Top Performing GOCC—Gold Award for garnering a score of 99.04 percent in its overall RCS 2.0 rating particularly for its Davao office.
