ICV Consultancy And Audit Services UAE

Get Certified. Boost Your Tender Winning Chances.

Your Specialist for ICV Auditing, ICV Improvement Plans, and Adnoc ICV Certification

In-Country Value (ICV) isn’t just another compliance requirement; it’s your pathway to winning high-value government and semi-government contracts in the UAE. Launched by ADNOC in 2018 and now controlled by the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT), the In-Country Value program directs and supports its suppliers to maximize local economic value from the partnerships it creates.

ICV Certification is now a mandatory requirement for companies wishing to do business with ADNOC, Aldar Properties, Mubadala, Abu Dhabi Ports and many of their entities in the Unified ICV Certificate UAE Network, and, your ICV score will affect evaluation of tenders and award of contracts, as well as affect your company’s ability to compete in the long term.

AMA Global provides ICV Consultancy Services to Companies, from ICV Audit and score assessment reports to implementation of an ICV Improvement Plan. We partner with you to ensure you achieve, maintain, and improve your Certification.

The Importance of ICV Certification for Suppliers

Tender Advantage: Increased ICV scores mean better preference on government and ADNOC contracts.
Business Growth: Gain visibility with leading UAE clients and access new industries.
Economic Impact: Assist with Emiratization, local manufacturing, and investment in UAE assets.
Reputation: Demonstrate commitment to sustainable economic development.

Step-by-Step ICV Process

1. Discovery Stage
We will evaluate your existing financials, supply chain, and activities to establish your baseline ICV score.
2. Collect Documents
You will gather a full set of financial statements, lists of suppliers, employee count, and any other requirements to be reviewed by the auditors.
3. ICV Audit
A licensed auditor will verify your financials and expenditures to determine your official ICV score.
4. Certificate
You will receive your Adnoc ICV Certificate or your Unified ICV Certificate from a registered body approved by MoIAT.
5. ICV Improvement Plan
Once you understand how to improve your ICV score, for future IOC renewals, you can implement changes to your strategy, such as sourcing nationally, increasing the number of Emiratis employed, or having their assets based in the UAE.

ICV Score Key Metrics

Your ICV score is calculated from:

  • Making goods locally
  • Expenditure on third-party suppliers based in the UAE
  • Investments in UAE assets
  • Manpower (Emiratization & expatriate work ratio)
  • Revenue from Outside the UAE and various bonus points

Benefits of a High ICV Score

  • Reduced government service fees
  • Priority in procurement lists
  • Enhanced brand credibility in the UAE market
