Tata Consultancy Services has signed an agreement for a Rs 103-crore end-to-end information and communication technology solutions contract with the West Bengal Government. The contract will help in implementing the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) in the State. According to initial plans, TCS will issue biometric cards to all stakeholders.
The TCS-MGNREGS solution will enable backward and forward integration of the process that include enrolment, biometric-based authentication, secure wage disbursement, worksite attendance management and on-line facilities into the system. It also provides a comprehensive management information system to ensure effective monitoring and deployment. TCS will provide a five-year support to the system after implementation. It will offer extensive experience in e-governance and a framework for the scheme.
