His administrative roles connected him to planners and officials from the United Nations Development Programme, the International Monetary Fund, and technical experts from the German Agency for International Cooperation.
As head of government he led a cabinet that interacted with the Presidency of Egypt, the House of Representatives (Egypt), and ministries such as the Ministry of Defense (Egypt), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Egypt), and the Ministry of Interior (Egypt).

Madbouly prioritized large-scale projects such as the development of a New Administrative Capital (Egypt), expansion plans around the Suez Canal Economic Zone, and urban regeneration in the Greater Cairo area. His economic agenda coordinated with international lenders like the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and sovereign partners including China under initiatives similar to the Belt and Road Initiative; cooperation involved state-owned enterprises like the Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation and the Suez Canal Authority.
