Electronic Muster & Measurement System (eMMS)

• The objective is to achieve complete transparency in implementation of MGNREGS by obtaining LIVE data from the Worksite to the Website on day to day basis.

• The mobile technology is customised and deployed for the MGNREGS field functionaries through different mobile applications like e-Muster, e-Measurement, e-muster verification and e-check measurement.

• eMMS is designed to arrest distortions in the programme like Muster Fudging; Delays in Payments; Binami Wageseekers; Fake Measurements and Work Duplication.

Electronic Fund Management System (eFMS)

• The eFMS is introduced basically to avoid parking of funds with POs and DPCs. This ensured efficient fund transfer system through online money transfers

• All the MCCs and DCCs are networked to the central server and through that to a central fund in which all the MGNREGA funds are lodged.

• eFMS enables electronic transfer of money to an account of disbursing agency (post office/smart card bank etc) where there is a requirement and allows optimum utilization of funds.

• eFMS avoids deficiency of funds or excess of funds at Mandal level.

• The Mandal level staff is liberated from the maintenance of cheque books and maintenance of detailed account books.
