Arunachal government uses new tech to put pending projects on fast track

The Arunachal Pradesh government has signed an MOU with Ernst & Young (EY) for Project Dashboard, an initiative to monitor key performance indicators (KPI) of various departments online via a single window.

The project is expected to be operational within 6 months. EY’s core delivery team will work with the state to give the Dashboard a final shape and make it functional. The team will be stationed in Itanagar for six months and then for another one year after its launch, scheduled for April 30, 2018.

The dashboard, according to CM Pema Khandu, will help create a mechanism to track delays in projects real-time information, which in turn will facilitate quick decisions at all levels.

“This new initiative will aid in performance measurement and provide updates on status and challenges of ongoing projects. This will be a path-breaking initiative,” he added.

The Dashboard will be an automated centralized web-based application. Performance status of each department in their concerned schemes and projects will be updated constantly from every district that will enable the highest offices of the state to monitor and facilitate timely execution.
