Department
of Roads is planning to go for a major transformation
towards a wide and broad, computer based Management Information
System (MIS). MIS consists of application like Human Resource
Management System, the road network related database management
systems and development and maintenance of intranet and
web-site.But we should not forget that regular maintenance
for a long-term sustainability of a system is far more
important than one time huge investment in the establishment
of the system itself. |

| BACKGROUND |
| |
| The Department of Roads is a government
agency responsible for development and management of Strategic
Road Network. The end goal of the Department is to reduce
total road transportation cost. To achieve this, the DOR Strategy
using the principle of Policy Action plan was developed. One
of the policy option (Refer DOR Strategy Ref. No.2) is to
establish a network planning and monitoring capability in
DOR. This necessitated the establishment of a computer based
Highway Management Information System (HMIS) unit. |
