The training, which was organized by the High Commission for Digitization in coordination with the Ministries of Internal Trade and Agriculture, aimed to equip officials with the skills needed to effectively use the new system. The system is designed to enhance monitoring of the national market and detect any irregularities or unusual price increases, allowing for swift intervention to restore balance to the market. The training was held at the National School of Hospitality and Catering.

The new digital system, developed by the High Commission for Digitization in collaboration with the Ministries of Internal Trade and Agriculture, is intended to provide a comprehensive platform for monitoring the supply of essential goods. The system collects and updates data on the availability of products, providing a clear picture of the market situation and enabling the detection of potential disruptions. The system will enable authorities to intervene quickly to address any issues that may arise.

The system is based on contributions from various sectors, including the Ministry of Internal Trade and Agriculture, which will provide essential information for monitoring the market situation. The Ministry of Interior and Local Authorities will also be involved in monitoring the necessary data. The system is expected to enhance monitoring and daily follow-up of the supply chain, identify potential problems, and provide authorities with the data needed to intervene in a timely manner.

The training included an interactive session, during which participants discussed their concerns and questions about the operation of the digital system, data collection, and analysis. The session provided an opportunity for officials to share their experiences and expertise, and to discuss ways to ensure the effectiveness of the system in monitoring market trends.

The new system is part of a broader effort to implement presidential instructions aimed at creating a shared database between the Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Internal Trade, and the High Commission for Digitization. The database will serve as an early warning system, enabling authorities to monitor price trends and intervene in case of unusual increases.

The system is expected to improve the monitoring of the national market and ensure the availability of essential goods. The authorities hope that the system will help to stabilize the market and prevent shortages of essential products. The training of officials is a key step in the implementation of the system.

A total of 250 officials from various provinces benefited from the training, which was organized in implementation of the instructions of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune. The training is part of a broader effort to enhance the digitization of public services and improve the monitoring of the national market.
