Operational issues: Web portal ensures effective monitoring

ISLAMABAD: The government has developed a web-based project management and evaluation system (PMES) to ensure effective and timely data sharing of Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP) projects. The system is helping in effective desk monitoring of projects while all ministries and divisions have been directed to ensure that data is timely updated. Official sources at the Planning and Development division, while detailing steps being taken by the government to ensure completion of PSDP projects, said project-wise released funds are updated on the website on a weekly basis to make the entire release mechanism more transparent. The sources said that the project wing of planning commission monitors projects across the country.
