How does the Ministry benefit from PIS?

PIS will allow every Ministry/department/office to

comprehensively manage, keep track of their employees
and view their complete information as desired. PIS will be
an excellent tool for Personnel Administration Section as
they are primarily responsible for the effective management
& administration of employees within the office. With the
use of PIS, all the letters pertaining to employees service
events (appointments, transfers, promotions, placements
etc) can be generated directly from the PIS. This functionality will not only help in updating PIS but also compliment
line ministries to perform the same task efficiently and effectively thus avoiding duplication of work.
