Software That Serves Citizens — Portals, Workflows and Cases in One Platform

Control Shift is a Dubai software team that builds government and public sector software for the UAE market. From citizen e-service portals to document workflows and case management, we replace the tangle of forms, spreadsheets and disconnected systems with one connected platform your teams and the public can rely on.

Citizen Services

Citizen E-Services

Citizen e-service software moves public services online. We build application portals, tracking, notifications and payments so residents and businesses complete services without queues, phone calls or paperwork.

Service Portals

Digital application portals for permits, licences and citizen services.

Application Tracking

Citizens track applications and status in real time, no phone calls needed.

Notifications

SMS, email and in-portal updates at every stage of the process.

Account & Profiles

Secure citizen and business accounts with shared document lockers.

Online Payments

Fee collection with UAE payment rails and automatic receipting.

Multi-Language

English and Arabic experiences with correct right-to-left layout.

Workflows

Document & Workflow Automation

Document and workflow automation removes the manual, repetitive work that slows public sector teams down. We map the processes that eat your staff's day and automate them with approval chains, SLAs and full audit trails.

Approval Chains

Multi-level approvals with routing rules, delegations and escalation.

Document Management

Central document repository with versioning, search and retention.

Access & Security

Role-based access, e-signatures and full audit trails.

Service-Level Tracking

SLA monitoring so every application is answered on time.

Form Automation

Smart online forms that validate and route data without re-keying.

Backlog Dashboards

Workload, pending and overdue reporting across every department.

Case Management

Case & Compliance Management

Case management software keeps every application, complaint and regulatory case on record. We build intake, assignment, deadlines and outcome reporting so nothing slips through and every case is answered on time.

Case Intake

Digital intake for complaints, applications and regulatory cases.

Assignment & Routing

Auto-assign cases to officers by type, workload and priority.

Deadlines & SLAs

Statutory deadlines and SLA alerts so nothing expires.

Evidence & Records

Escalation Rules

Automatic escalation for unresolved or high-priority cases.

Outcome Reporting

Case outcomes, timeliness and service KPIs for leadership.

Built for the UAE

Digital Government Alignment

Design aligned to UAE digital government strategy and open-data standards.

Fully bilingual interfaces and documents with Arabic RTL.
