For high-ranking units, continue to promote the achieved results and maintain the ranking; for low-ranking units, find out the causes and propose solutions to enhance competitiveness and improve the ranking in the coming year.

At the same time, strengthen coordination, review criteria, proactively overcome existing problems and limitations, especially reform administrative procedures, create the most favorable conditions for enterprises in the process of investment, production and business in Ninh Binh, thereby actively contributing to improving the province's competitiveness index.
In addition, it is necessary to actively coordinate with the Provincial Business Association and the Business Associations of districts and cities to research and find appropriate solutions to disseminate and support legal knowledge for individual business households, small and micro enterprises in the area.
