oh. sounds similar to private sector. i am from a local newspaper company (i guess you should know)

we have corporate title and functional title (printed on namecard).
I am holding a Manager corporate title but designate as a "Infra Specialist"
Someone who is in marketing division holding the same corporate tile is designate a "Assistant VP"
A HR lady who is holding a Senior Executive corporate title is designate a "Manager"

but i must admit it does make a different on how people treat and respond to your email.
A lower grade and younger Manager from "user" division often thought that they are more senior than us.

put it this way, a senior IT engineer (just like a Manager) who manage a system well can be as efficicent as a team of 5 people doing administrative stuff.

for govtech, you should compare with other SB. in general being in IT, you are always at the specialist scheme, hence your designation are usually towards the techy.

A AD in Govtech is not equal to a AD or even a SAD in ministry. he or she is more senior than the designation reflect.

I am in a IT division of a SB under MOT. over here,
mx13 = assistant manager / engineer
mx12 = assistant manager / engineer
mx11 = deputy manager / senior engineer
mx11A = deputy manager / manager / principle engineer
mx10 lower = manager / senior manager / senior principle engineer
mx10 upper = senior manager / DD / principle architect
mx9 = DD / D

yes mx10 can be just a manager or even a senior princple engineer designation here.
But that does not mean he or she is a mx12 equivalence if he or she go to a ministry.

last year my colleague Manager transfer to a ministry and hr matches his grade at SAD
