SAPM for overseas Pakistanis Mr. Jawad Sohrab launched OPF web portal for recovery of dues of overseas Pakistani workers to facilitate Pakistani diaspora. This service expedites the disbursement of dues such as salary, death & disability compensation and other allowances of the workers.
Addressing at the formal launch of web-based application for Outstanding Dues Management of overseas Pakistanis workers at Overseas Pakistan Foundation (OPF) which was completely developed in-house, the Special Assistant to the Prime Minister for Overseas Pakistanis, Jawad Sohrab Malik emphasized upon maximum utilization of technology to improve service delivery to Overseas Pakistanis.
He said the Internet has revolutionized the service delivery paradigm as it has transformed the way businesses operate worldwide.
Moreover, it has also led to the development of new technologies, thus, providing an opportunity to better manage the business processes using state-of-the-art technology.
The implementation of a web-based system has significantly enhanced the efficiency of OPF officials in processing outstanding dues cases of overseas Pakistanis. Now, all applications are directly entered into the system at their point of origin, which are the offices of the CWAs in Pakistan missions abroad.
This eliminates the previous need to send hard-copy applications to OPF for manual data entry, a process that used to take approximately 30 days.
With the new system in place, this cumbersome transfer of applications in physical form has been reduced to a few minutes only.
Furthermore, the entire application workflow has been streamlined through automation. The new system provides real-time access to applications, allowing for seamless movement within different departments.
