Government service satisfaction in Qatar: what Sharek measures

In Qatar the Civil Service and Government Development Bureau runs Sharek, the unified platform for complaints, suggestions, appreciation and post-service surveys across government entities. The Bureau publishes monthly service-centre figures and has set a satisfaction target above 90 percent.

Qmeter adds the entity's own daily measurement at the counter, on the phone and online, in Arabic and English.

Qmeter runs visitor feedback for public cultural institutions in Abu Dhabi and customer feedback for banks and service networks across the Gulf and the Caucasus, in Arabic and English.

The national picture

What Sharek does, and what it leaves to the entity

Public statements and monthly figures describe the platform's role; its survey method is the Bureau's own. The national figures show an entity its standing; moving them takes the entity's own daily measurement, hosted in the region or on its own servers.

One national channel

Sharek gives the public a single place for complaints, suggestions, appreciation and inquiries, and invites every service recipient to complete a post-service survey. Entities receive what the public submits there.

Published monthly figures

The Bureau publishes how many transactions the government service centres complete each month and how many surveys entities receive. The national target for satisfaction has been stated as above 90 percent.

The entity's own measurement

A national survey tells an entity where it stands. To move the number it needs its own feedback by counter, by employee and by hour, and a loop that fixes the cause behind each low rating.

The checklist

What a service centre should measure itself

Three habits that make the national figures predictable.

01

A question at every counter and on every channel

Kiosk or tablet at the counter, QR on the receipt, SMS after the transaction, a widget on the portal: one short question in Arabic and English, tagged with the service and the employee.

02

Low ratings handled the same day

A low rating opens a case for the floor supervisor with a deadline; closing requires the cause and the action. The citizen is told what was done.

03

Daily results, monthly trend

The centre manager sees yesterday by service and by employee; leadership sees the month by centre, before the national figures are published.

Complaints and suggestions with an owner

Whatever arrives, from a kiosk, a QR survey or a manual entry of a suggestion received elsewhere, becomes a case with a named owner, a deadline and an escalation chain. The citizen receives a reply from inside the case, in Arabic or English.

  • Automatic case from a low rating
  • Manual entry for suggestions received on other channels
  • Reply to the citizen by SMS or e-mail
  • Root cause and action required to close

What IT, security and the service excellence unit will ask

Short answers; details in writing on a technical call.

Where is the data?

On a Qmeter instance hosted in the Gulf, or on the entity's own infrastructure with on-premise deployment.

Arabic and English, properly

Right-to-left Arabic for citizens and staff, Arabic reports, further languages for residents. See multilingual surveys.

Personal data

Ratings are anonymous by default; contact details only when the citizen asks for a reply, with PII masking and audited reveal. See security.

Alongside the national platform

Qmeter does not replace Sharek. It is the entity's own measurement layer; cases and ratings can be exported or connected through the API.
