Methodology

The Takamul method

One unified framework covering five national indices: evidence built once that serves every index, with a monthly readiness calendar.

The problem: many indices, many files, evidence rebuilt every time

Saudi government entities are measured on several national indices. Each has its own owner, cycle, scope and submission format, so the same evidence gets collected again, the same policy gets rewritten in different forms, and teams race before every deadline.

The result is duplicated effort, uneven scores across indices, and leadership that never sees the whole picture.

The idea: evidence built once, serving every index

Takamul is a unified framework that brings the requirements of five national indices into one place. Each piece of evidence is mapped to the standard codes of every index it serves, so a single piece of work counts in more than one assessment.

Index What it measures
Qiyas digital transformation Digital transformation in the government entity
National Data Index (Nadhi) Data management and governance maturity
National AI Index Readiness for, and impact of, AI adoption
Digital Experience Maturity The quality of the beneficiary experience in digital services
Website and Digital Content Efficiency Accessibility, speed, security, search visibility and content quality

How it works

  1. Diagnose: an assessment across 18 domains, a composite score, a balance index that exposes uneven performance between indices, and an impact map for each index.
  2. Rank by cross-index impact: the top ten actions ranked by how many indices each one lifts, not by how easy it is.
  3. Evidence library: 16 central pieces of evidence mapped to standard codes, each reviewed before submission.
  4. Readiness calendar: a monthly calendar that spreads the work across the year instead of cramming it before each deadline.
  5. Follow-through: the mapping is reviewed against every new release of the standards, so nothing built is lost.

Timing

Every index has its own cycle and submission dates, and effective preparation starts months ahead, not weeks. An entity that runs the diagnostic early enters the cycle with evidence ready, not a plan.
