0 401

The CoE, housed in Mumbai, will serve as a research platform to design, develop and test new capabilities that will deliver better government-to-citizen (G2C) and government-to-business (G2B) services

Oracle and the Government of Maharashtra has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) intended to accelerate the state’s digital transformation initiatives. According to the MoU, Oracle and the Maharashtra Government will create a Center of Excellence (CoE) to help accelerate its smart city program and modernize the Government’s technology solutions.

The CoE, housed in Mumbai, will serve as a research platform to design, develop and test new capabilities that will deliver better government-to-citizen (G2C) and government-to-business (G2B) services. Benefiting from the power of the Cloud, the CoE will enable rapid innovation with minimal capital expenditures. In addition, the CoE will offer a flexible and scalable common framework, as well as a team of experts, allowing individual cities to scale and replicate its solutions.

Leveraging Oracle Cloud solutions, Oracle and the Government of Maharashtra will develop the State’s smart city program, with the goal of making the State’s urban landscape more livable and inclusive, while driving economic growth.

The proposed projects, to be finalized before the end of the calendar year, include:

· Smart city in a box

· Mobile platform for service questions

· Unified app development for services like drivers license renewals or property tax payments

· Digital platform to deliver smart city services across the state

· Connected infrastructure across all devices, kiosks and citizens

· Infrastructure services for equipment and IT

· Resources to manage transportation logistics, including analytics, asset tracking, fleet management

· Resources to manage utilities, including water and power

· Many of these projects will support the egov programs aimed at citizens, visitors, business establishments and government officials. Both Oracle and the Government of Maharashtra will invest in IT infrastructure, training and skillset resources as well as management of the CoE.

“Cloud computing has changed the landscape of governance. It has the power to enable inclusive growth and to transform the state into a digitally empowered society,” said Devendra Fadnavis, chief minister, Government of Maharashtra. “Together with Oracle, we want to build a new, efficient, transparent and inclusive system that benefits our people. The CoE is a step in that direction and will make more government services available with the click of a button. I look forward to working with Oracle on this important mission.”
