MP Government Deploys SCO Group's e-Governance Solution

The SCO Group has announced that the State Government of Madhya Pradesh in India has selected SCO Mobile Server as the platform for developing and deploying government services to more than 60 million citizens. India is deploying this e-governance solution to provide online public services and record keeping, including online bill payment, taxes, land records, income certificates, loans, driving licenses, birth and death certificates and various government entitlement programs.

The pilot project using SCO Mobile Server enables electronic provisioning of services and access to government information using a cell phone over the cell carrier network.

“We decided to choose e-mobility with e-governance for the uninterrupted data sharing process, which could make the current information available to us on a real-time basis. SCO Mobile Server technology was a perfect choice as it provides a complete end- to-end solution, and it enables the user to upload and download data on the move,” said Ashok Das, divisional commissioner, Indore.

“The SCO Mobile solution helped us capture data and conduct business transactions in real-time. The objective is to develop the mobile monitoring and control system within the existing framework of processes which can cater to effective data capture and transparent reporting for the Office of Revenue department,” he added.
