IT hardware firm HCL Infosystems has bagged a project to implement automation, computerisation and integration solutions at 22 border check posts (BCPs) in Maharashtra.
The project was awarded by Sadbhav Infrastructure and entails design, supply, installation, commissioning and maintenance of the system for the next 10 years, HCL Infosystems said in a statement today.
However, no financial details were disclosed.
Three Maharashtra state government bodies — the Department of Transport, Department of Sales Tax and Department of Excise — will share and use the common ICT solution for their respective functions.
The integrated BCPs shall have combined facilities for clearance and checking of commercial traffic by all three departments, the statement said.
The proposed modernisation with computerised BCPs will help road users and reduce the clearance time, thereby increasing efficiency of the departments, it added.
“We thank the Maharashtra government and Sadbhav Engineering for providing us an opportunity to employ our proficiency and expertise to provide an efficient and optimum system,” HCL Infosystems COO (Enterprise Business Unit), Mr Rajeev Asija, said.
