eGeneration to implement workflow and security solutions in Planning Ministry

eGeneration, a leading system integration and software solutions company in Bangladesh, has recently signed an agreement with Central Procurement Technical Unit (CPTU), an agency under the Ministry of Planning.

eGeneration will provide CPTU with IT collaboration tools, and workflow automation, consulting, implementation and training on Microsoft SharePoint platform with systems management software, directory services, mail servers, database management system and security solutions using System Center, Active Directory, Microsoft Exchange and SQL Servers under the project.

Experts see it as an important part of the initiative to improve the governance in the public procurement management.

Corruption in the public procurement management is a common theme in the country's development process and private-sector led digitization can bring a solution in the process, experts believe.

Mohammed Shoheler Rahman Chowdhury, Director General, CPTU; and S M Ashraful Islam, Executive Vice Chairman, eGeneration, signed the agreement on behalf of both parties on a signing ceremony on Monday. Among, others, Aziz Taher Khan, Director, CPTU; Mosharrof Hossain, Sr. System Analyst, CPTU; and Emran Abdullah, Director, eGeneration were also present during the ceremony.

Mohammed Shoheler Rahman Chowdhury emphasized that they selected the solutions provider after assessing and confirming the provider's capacity and capability to deliver global technology services with its team and international partners.

He added, "As part of strengthening overall sectoral governance and improving performance of public procurement, we are confident that the services will improve our technology footprint through software implementation, and training on the latest digital platform."

SyedaKamrun Ahmed, Chairman, eGeneration said, "eGeneration wants to set the standard for ease and rapid deployment in Bangladesh as a technology service provider. Our goal is to provide CPTU with GOVTECH solutions that simplify the deployment, configuration, management, and monitoring of their IT infrastructure."

SyedaKamrun mentioned that these software and hardware solutions will expedite CPTU's objective to improve public procurement and project monitoring through digitization.
