Developed by state-run National Informatics Centre (NIC), e-office is a digital workplace solution designed to ensure accountability and speedy decision-making.
“This will help increase transparency in decision making and bring-in citizen participation as part of the inclusive governance in the country. To ensure time-bound implementation of e-office Ashish Joshi, member finance, has been designated as chief digitalisation officer,” said Nath.
Nath said that the e-office involves creation of an online version of files, which are signed with digital signature and moved to next officer online itself. “This ensures that senior officers know the status of the file pending with each employee.
