East Europe Foundation, as part of the USAID/UK Dev Project “Supporting Digital Transformation”, is excited to announce an open competition for the position of Data Analyst for the Electronic Border Crossing Queue project.

In December 2022, the Ministry of Communities, Territories, and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine, in partnership with the State Service for Transport Safety, launched an innovative solution for border crossing – eQueue (Android https://bit.ly/3pBBDhD, iOS https://apple.co/41EZHxg). This electronic queue system was initially implemented at the Yahodyn-Dorohusk international border crossing point. The system has since expanded to cover 28 international border crossings with the EU and Moldova for trucks and buses. eQueue allows drivers to reserve a spot in the queue for border crossing and monitor the queue’s progress online. The system automatically notifies the driver of the estimated border crossing time. This innovation not only streamlines the queue but also eliminates the need for drivers to wait roadside for days, allowing them to arrive at the checkpoint at the specified time. This efficiency reduces cargo transportation costs and increases the transparency of border crossings. By minimizing human influence on queue formation, eCheck mitigates corruption risks and prevents potential abuses due to checkpoint congestion.
