SERVICOM is an acronym derived from the words SERVICE COMPACT. Compact is a formal agreement between two or more people. In this case SERVICOM is a Service Compact (Agreement) between the Federal Government including all its organs and the Nigerian people.

             SERVICOM was established in March, 2004 with a focus on improving the quality of life of citizens for better development. The establishment of SERVICOM Office in different Institutions, Ministries and Agencies is a commitment to provide the public service in Nigeria with respect, courtesy, honesty and professionalism.

The Objectives of SERVICOM are:

  • Learn the principles, ideals and tenets of Service Delivery in Government Establishments.
  • Develop mechanism for collating all complaints, both internal and external.
  • Institute a framework for resolving and escalating all unresolved complaints, including obtaining feedbacks from the complainants.
  • Assist the Staff to understand the need for Service Excellence.
