The Government of Mongolia approved the “Digital First” initiative last September, which aims to digitize government policies, decisions, and all public services through technology to enhance efficiency and accessibility.
During the Prime Minister’s meeting with media representatives on November 9, 2025, Minister of Digital Development, Innovation, and Communications Batshugar Enkhbayar highlighted that conditions will be created for 90 percent of public services to be delivered digitally, saving an estimated MNT 1.1 trillion.
According to studies, integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into public procurement could increase institutional productivity by 10-20 percent. For example, the Erdenet Mining Corporation has digitalized its procurement process with AI, reducing tender processing time from 28 days to just 4 minutes.
In September, Mongolia connected public services to AI for the first time by launching the “E-Mongolia 5.0” system, through which citizens can now access 1,278 government services online.
