In Claudia Sheinbaum’s Government 2024–2030
We have new players and a new game board.

Claudia Sheinbaum has not only appointed a new cabinet but also redesigned much of the public administration.
New ministries were created, some were renamed, and others were assigned new functions.

Three new ministries were established:
1. Ministry of Science, Humanities, Technology, and Innovation
2. Ministry of Women’s Affairs
3. Digital Transformation and Telecommunications Agency

Key Changes in Existing Ministries:
Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (SHCP):
The SHCP regains the authority to carry out consolidated purchases, which had been transferred to the Ministry of Public Administration over the past two years. It will also resume responsibility for market research and contracting processes.

Ministry of Public Security and Citizen Safety:
This ministry will now have expanded powers, including the authority to investigate crimes and issue directives on training and technology related to public security.

Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT):
For the first time, this ministry has been expressly tasked with monitoring climate change.

Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (SADER):
This ministry will focus on regulating the operation of agri-food markets, increasing productivity, and other responsibilities to be defined once the budget is approved.

New Ministry Functions:
Ministry of Science, Humanities, Technology, and Innovation:
This ministry will:
– Coordinate the participation of public, social, and private sectors in scientific research, technological development, and innovation projects.
– Propose to SHCP tax incentives, financial support, and subsidies to promote technological projects.
– Encourage technology transfer.

Ministry of Infrastructure, Communications, and Transport:
Its functions will now focus on:
– Public works of various types.
– Railway, air, maritime, and highway transportation.
– Note: The ministry has relinquished all matters related to telecommunications.

Digital Transformation and Telecommunications Agency:
This new agency will:
– Develop and lead telecommunications policies.
– Issue regulations for the procurement, leasing, and provision of telecommunications services, and provide technical assessments for their supply.
– A Note for the Technology Sector:
We have some bad news for companies selling software and technology to the federal government. Telecommunications in this reform have become a highly complex matter.

In a subsequent update, we will delve deeper into telecommunications reforms and the new Digital Transformation and Telecommunications Agency.
