The project was assigned to Railway Board with four modules: Management System (eFile), Knowledge Management System (KMS) Collaboration & Messaging Services (CAMS) & Personnel Information Management System (PIMS).

The paperless system aims to usher in more efficient, effective and transparent inter-government and intra-government transactions and processes. It will be built, as a single reusable system by bribing together independent functions and system under a framework to enhance transparency, increasing accountability and transforming the government work, culture, and ethics.
