Is Your Business Ready to Improve Its UAE ICV Performance?
Improving UAE In-Country Value (ICV) performance starts well before the certification exercise. Businesses achieve better outcomes when management understands the main value drivers, identifies evidence gaps early, and turns the findings into a practical improvement plan.
Assist Plus has developed a free UAE ICV Readiness Assessment to give businesses a useful starting point. It provides an instant qualitative result and a personalised readiness improvement report that management can use to prioritise action.
Why ICV readiness matters
An ICV score is influenced by more than a single financial figure. Procurement decisions, Emiratisation, local investment, financial records, and governance practices all contribute to a company’s readiness and future improvement potential.
Early preparation can help a business organise its supporting evidence, focus management attention on material opportunities, and approach certification or tendering with greater clarity.
What the free assessment reviews
The assessment considers five practical dimensions:
Financial documentation: the availability and organisation of financial records relevant to ICV preparation.
UAE procurement: the visibility of local supplier spend and opportunities to strengthen UAE-based purchasing.
Emirati workforce: the current position and the quality of supporting employment, payroll, WPS, and pension records.
Local investment: the business’s UAE asset base and the evidence available to support it.
ICV governance: ownership, monitoring, documentation, and management oversight of improvement actions.
What the personalised report includes
The downloadable report is designed to be useful—not simply a score. It includes:
An executive readiness snapshot.
Dimension-by-dimension findings and focus areas.
The three most important actions to begin immediately.
A time-bound 30-day improvement plan.
Industry and certification-objective considerations.
General guidance on improving UAE ICV readiness.
Clear options for continuing internally, requesting a free consultation, or commissioning a detailed improvement plan.
What the sample report demonstrates
Our illustrative manufacturing-company sample shows how a business can have useful foundations while still requiring focused attention in areas such as UAE procurement and ICV governance. It translates the assessment responses into management priorities rather than presenting a generic checklist.
The sample is for demonstration only. It is not a client case study, an official ICV certificate, or a guaranteed score prediction.
How to use the report
Management can use the report as an initial working document: assign ownership for the priority actions, gather missing evidence, review UAE procurement opportunities, and decide whether the organisation is ready to proceed internally or would benefit from professional support.
Choose the right next step
1. Continue internally. Use the report and 30-day plan to organise records and implement the immediate actions.
2. Request a free consultation. Discuss the findings with Assist Plus and clarify the most relevant next steps for your business.
3. Commission a Detailed ICV Improvement Plan. For organisations seeking deeper analysis, our paid package reviews the company profile and supporting documents to produce a more comprehensive, tailored plan.
