Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday launched a new artificial intelligence (AI)-based digitisation platform for the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), designed to replace paper-based working in governance.
According to a statement by the PMO on social media, the premier described the Prime Minister Office System (PMOS) as a transformative digital platform that would “modernise governance” by “recording, communicating, monitoring and tracking every directive issued by the prime minister from issuance through implementation, verified completion and post-completion monitoring”.
During the launch ceremony of the system at the PMO — attended by Minister for Economic Affairs Ahad Khan Cheema, Minister for IT and Telecom Shaza Fatima Khawaja, and other senior officials — the prime minister was given a comprehensive briefing on the AI-powered platform and its objectives.
Addressing the ceremony, the prime minister directed all relevant authorities to ensure the immediate and full implementation of the new digital system. He said that traditional paper-based working would be replaced by digital processes.
