The Vigilant Political Action Committee (VPAC) has unveiled a proposal for a technology-driven National Housing Management System (NHMS), arguing that artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technology can help eliminate longstanding inefficiencies, reduce the housing backlog, and restore public confidence in Guyana’s housing allocation process.

The proposal, developed under the leadership of VPAC Chairman Dorwain Bess, comes as thousands of Guyanese continue to wait years for house lots despite the government’s multi-billion-dollar investment in the housing sector.

In a statement, VPAC announced the completion of what it described as “a comprehensive national blueprint designed to fundamentally modernise the administration of housing in Guyana through the responsible use of artificial intelligence, and digital technology.”
