RailTel, a Miniratna PSU under Ministry of Railways, has taken up the work of implementing E-Office system for Indian Railways. E-Office project is a Mission Mode Project (MMP) under the National e-Governance Programme of the Government of India. The project aims to usher in more efficient, effective and transparent inter-government and intra-government transactions and processes. South-Central Railways Head Quarter is the first Railway Zonal HQ where the E- Office has been implemented. The work of implementation in the entire South- Central railway would be completed by June 19 and other Zonal headquarters and one division in each zone will be completed by Dec-19.
Sh. V.K. Yadav, Chairman/Railway Board inaugurated the E-Office system in South Central Railways HQ & Guntur Division Provided by RailTel on 4.4.2019. This is a giant leap towards shift from manual filing system to E-office for its day to day activities to bring transparency and efficiency in functioning.
E-Office is a cloud enabled software that is deployed/hosted from RailTel Tier III certified data centre. It is based on Central Secretariat Manual of e-Office Procedure (CSMeOP). This is a giant leap forward to digitize and achieve greater efficiency & productivity for the Indian Railways. The product is built as single reusable system by bringing together independent functions and systems under a single framework to enhance transparency, increase accountability and transform the government work culture and ethics.
Indian Railways is one of the largest employers of the country and its offices cover almost every part of India. Indian Railways till date is burgeoned with manual ways to handle office documents. This not only makes the process slow but consumes more energy on its workforce. To change the scenario and bring the digital culture in Railways the implementation of e- Office has started.The aim of E-Office implementation is to provide reliable, efficient, and effective way to handle office files & documents.
