ISLAMABAD: A training workshop on Intelligent Project Automation System (iPAS) was organized by Higher Education Commission’s National Academy of Higher Education (NAHE) in collaboration with the Planning & Development Division.
The workshop aimed to enhance the capacity of HEC employees in effectively utilizing iPAS for improved project management and automation in the public sector.
iPAS is a web-based tool introduced by the Ministry of Planning Development & Special Initiatives that automates Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP), enables tracking of financial and physical progress of projects, automates releases, allows online submission of PC-I and supports funds management, like re-appropriations and supplementary grants, to facilitate all the stakeholders of development portfolio.
The system delivers financial efficiency, automation of manual processes, and minimization of information gaps among all the stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle to make project work smoother and enhance management efficiency. The iPAS not only streamlines the processes but also fosters collaboration, data-driven decisions, and strategic planning.
In her opening remarks, Noor Amna Malik, Managing Director NAHE highlighted the significance of embracing advanced technologies to maintain a competitive edge. She encouraged participants to engage actively and consider how these tools can be integrated into their own projects.
