Bhubaneswar, Nov 21 : Odisha Chief Secretary P K Jena on Tuesday launched an e-office in 52 government offices.

E-Office is a Mission Mode Project under the National e-Governance Programme of the Government. E-Office is developed by the National Informatics Centre and implemented by CMGI in Odisha to usher in more efficient, effective, and transparent inter-government and intra-government transactions and processes.
E-Office is built as a single reusable system by bringing together independent functions and systems under a single framework to enhance transparency, increase accountability, and transform the government work culture and ethics.
This software is designed to abolish the movement of hard copies within an organization and integrate various unrelated activities within an organization. The software is based on open technologies and web-based platforms, which are user-friendly and easy to use.
The user can access the system using a standard Internet browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape after necessary authentication.
The complete system works with a centralized back-end database to store the necessary structured information, keyed in by the user. In Odisha e-Office has been implemented in 836 Government offices, to operate office functions remotely. e-Office is being implemented under the 5T initiative of the General Administration & Public Grievances Department.
