In-Country Value Program - Overview
Started by ADNOC in 2017, the In-Country Value program or the ICV was launched to achieve key objectives of Emiratization, GDP Diversification and Strategic Considerations
The In-Country Value program consists of two parts - ICV Certification and ICV Implementation.
- The ICV Certification part is unified and aligned amongst all ICV participating entities. The unified ICV certificate will be considered by all participating entities. Therefore, Suppliers are only required to obtain one ICV certificate per legal entity that shall be used by all participating entities.
- The ICV Implementation will be unique at each entity level. It represents the way each participating entity will use the certificate in its business activities. Accordingly, the ICV certificate will be considered by each participating entity in accordance with its policy.
