Resource Title From identification to access: a technology foresight roadmap for QCID as Quezon City's digital access layer
Date Issued 7 May 2026
Abstract This project examines how the Quezon City Citizen ID (QCID) can evolve from an identity credential and registry mechanism into a foundation for integrated digital service access. While the QCID already exists in physical and digital forms and is connected to Quezon City's broader digital service environment, the study identifies a continuing identity-to-access gap: service access remains affected by platform fragmentation, service-specific validation, and the absence of a clearly defined Digital Access Layer. Using a qualitative and foresight-oriented methodology, the study reviews literature on digital identity, public sector digital transformation, interoperability, and technology roadmapping. It then assesses the current QCID-enabled digital ecosystem, analyzes emerging trends and access risks, and develops a phased strategic roadmap. The proposed roadmap recommends near-term foundations, medium-term integration, and long-term institutional positioning to support QCID-enabled access. The study argues that the main reform is not an app-centered rollout, but the development of a governance, data, process, and platform layer that connects identity to authentication, eligibility, service routing, and transaction visibility across Quezon City's service ecosystem.
