National Transmission and Despatch Company (NTDC) Managing Director Engineer Dr Rana Abdul Jabbar Khan has said that the state-owned company is committed to achieving digital transformation by allocating necessary in-house resources.
He was speaking at a “kick-off ceremony” for the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) project, aimed at automating business processes in the company.
NTDC’s digital transformation journey started three years ago and its strategy is to work on short and long-term initiatives to achieve the goal.
“ERP project is finally kicking off. We are now officially starting the implementation of the project that will be completed in 18 months’ time period,” Khan said.
It was emphasised that it was the largest investment in terms of resource allocation with respect to business process automation in the NTDC’s history.
“I am expecting that all employees will actively participate, take ownership role and make required contribution,” he said. “Higher management will be closely monitoring this project’s progress and will facilitate the project team by providing complete support.”
The project is funded by the World Bank while Siemens Pakistan has won contract for the supply, design and implementation of ERP along with supply and commissioning of hardware.
