In the province of Ciego de Ávila, the digitization of the different Consumer Registry Offices (Oficodas) continues with the O.R.E.G.I computer system, now in version 2.2.

This web tool is developed by the Defense Information Technology Company (Xetid) and arises because of Resolution 96 of the Ministry of Internal Trade, where the creation of exceptional centers was authorized based on the situation that caused the Covid-19, because many people were in different provinces without a supply card.

“Once the issue of exceptional nuclei is stabilized, it is decided to create the conditions. It is not only the control of these, but all the management that is done in the offices such as registrations and cancellations and the addition or disabling of medical diets. Moreover, the alert when a person dies, leaves the country or does not have a verified identity,” Niurka Socarrás Hernández, senior specialist in Information Technology in the Territorial Division of Xetid, said.

This is possible because O.R.E.G.I is linked to other registries in the country, such as the Single Citizen Record (FUC) database, the Ministry of Public Health's registry of medical allowances, the Ministry of Justice's sanctioned control registry, and the records of the Directorate of Identification, Immigration and Foreigners.

In addition, it provides a real-time analysis of the progress of digitization and auditing of work in the system, since you can see who is working, what actions the authenticated user has done, the total number of cores that each office has digitized, and of them the percentage that it represents with respect to the total.

"Another novelty is that the system warns about people with double consumption, in which case communication between offices is established by email, in order to save supplies for the country," Socarrás Hernández added.

O.R.E.G.I also offers a set of statistical analyzes such as reports by nucleus, by consumers, by composition, among others, which constitute important information and which today is collected manually in Oficodas. In this sense, we work together with the Computer and Electronics Youth Club, to gradually remove the books, keep them and have them as a backup.

To date, in Ciego de Ávila there are 15,798 digitized nuclei out of 168,156 declared, which represents only 9.5% of the process. This figure indicates that, although efforts are being made, the lack of technological equipment in the offices slows progress, and the ideal state for the use of the system, which requires at least one computer in each Oficoda, has not yet been reached.
