Bhubaneswar: As part of 5T Initiative, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has launched the Quarter Management System 2.0, which was designed to enhance employee satisfaction.
The Chief Minister launched the system here at the Convention Center of the Lokaseba Bhawan on Wednesday.
The e-Quarters Application has been suitably enhanced to Quarter Management System –2.0 (QMS 2.0) on HRMS platform for online management of GA Pool Quarters including allotment covering Type-I to Type-VI categories in Bhubaneswar and Cuttack, officials said on Thursday.
The new application will cover all activities related to quarter management starting from application, allotment, vacation and issuance of NOC/NDC in the online platform in a hassle-free manner, they said.
The newly developed QMS-2.0 Module by Center for Modernizing Government Initiative (CMGI) under General Administration and Public Grievances (GA & PG) Department will be made operational from December 15, 2023 in the HRMS platform as well as in the URL: https://qms.hrmsodisha.gov.in/
The QMS 2.0 is designed with an objective to abolish the physical presence of Government employees in the Facilitation Center of the GA Estate for applying for a quarter. And it will also ensure the collection of the No Dues Certificate completely electronically.
Earlier, the Government employee had to personally visit the GA Facilitation Center physically to apply for a quarter or go through a time consuming manual process of acquiring a No Dues Certificate while surrendering the quarter.
With QMS 2.0, the GA & PG Department have revolutionized this process to ensure a hassle-free experience for all government employees. The online platform allows the Government employee to conveniently apply for a quarter online, eliminating the need for multiple visits and long waiting times at the office.
The accounts to apply for quarters of all eligible regular Government employees, drawing salaries through different treasuries located at Bhubaneswar & Cuttack will be auto activated.
No hardcopy would be required for application for GA Pool Quarters in Bhubaneswar & Cuttack. The new application would be implemented with changes in business processes for making the process easy, reducing time and to transit to faceless quarter management.
All Government employees drawing their salary through the treasury located at Bhubaneswar and Cuttack are eligible to exercise their choice in QMS 2.0 which will be made available from 1st to 9th of every month.
In other words, the list of vacant quarters available for allotment as well as the waiting list will remain frozen during the period from 1st to 9th of the month.
With QMS 2.0, the Government aims to enhance the overall experience of the government employees by simplifying processes that were once time-consuming and cumbersome.
