Can a Unified System Transform Judicial Execution?

Where justice meets real-time clarity

Introduction

Dubai Courts faced a challenge that affected clients, partners, and the institution as a whole. Enforcement procedures relied on six different electronic inquiry systems, creating heavy pressure on employees who spent extensive time navigating scattered processes. This lack of integration slowed execution timelines and complicated simple tasks. To understand the full picture, Dubai Courts examined surveys, feedback channels, and operational results to pinpoint the root causes and redesign the experience with clarity and speed in mind.

How the Platform Works

Using a structured project management approach aligned with institutional standards, Dubai Courts collaborated with multiple stakeholders to reshape the workflow and reduce system risks. This effort produced Efsah — an integrated digital platform that removes redundancies, automates essential steps, and centralizes information. The results are significant: late requests dropped from 16,000 to zero, customer journey steps decreased from six to three, and service completion time was reduced from 160 hours to only five. Requirements that previously needed documents are now retrieved automatically, and customer visits have moved from an average of five to zero. These improvements illustrate how the platform transformed the execution process from a fragmented journey into a unified digital experience.

How Efsah Works for You

When enforcement finally keeps up with decisions.

Efsah builds a more predictable and accessible path for users and government entities. The platform allows the execution court to obtain accurate, real-time financial information from government, semi-government, and private entities without the need for repeated applications. This proactive model increases execution rates, prevents the diversion of assets, and ensures that judgment procedures meet targeted timelines. Users benefit from reduced effort and cost, while government entities see lower operational pressure due to automated processes and consolidated system access. With more than 1.3 million sheets of paper saved, the shift also supports Dubai’s paperless strategy and reduces environmental impact.

How Efsah Fits into Real Life

From scattered steps to a single smart direction.

Efsah’s impact reaches far beyond technical efficiency. By ensuring that seizure decisions occur before assets can be moved or concealed, the platform reinforces trust in the judiciary and supports Dubai’s strong global standing in credit indicators. It also strengthens the Emirate’s position as an attractive destination for investment and commercial activity. The system encourages collaboration with qualified private-sector partners, easing the workload on judicial teams and expanding service options for users. Supported by Dubai Digital Authority standards and Dubai Courts’ modern electronic infrastructure, Efsah continues to advance the Emirate’s vision of a secure, efficient, and data-driven justice environment.

Efsah’s achievements were internationally recognized at the Global Innovation Summit (GINS), where it was honored as “Distinguished Innovation by Public Sector – Winners at the Global Innovation Summit (GINS)”. This acknowledgment highlights the platform’s role as a leading model for digital transformation within the justice sector. Ongoing development includes continuous training, policy reviews, performance assessments, and active engagement with stakeholders — ensuring readiness for future needs and preserving institutional knowledge for long-term sustainability.
