Accommodation will be made available for us after the lunch time of 20th November 2009 by the Management. However, Delegates reaching there before that also will be able to keep their luggages in a room until accommodation is made available to us after the lunch time. 250 Delegates can stay here on 20th, 21st and 200 Delegates can stay on 22nd also in the same place. This place we have to vacate on 23rd morning. The Comrades of TRANSPORT COMMITTEE will guide the Delegates from the three Railway Stations of Delhi , New Delhi and Nizamudin. Delegates coming by Flight are requested to book 'Pre-Paid Taxis" from the booking booths / counters situated inside the Airport itself since the charges are reasonable only. They have to mention that the destination is 'Jhandewalan". Taxi Fare will be within 200 only. Similarly Delegates from adjoining circles coming to Delhi by Bus to ISBT [Inter State Bus Terminal] are requested to take the Delhi Metro from the 'Kashmere Gate Metro Station' to 'Jhandewalan" Metro Station.

DEPARTMENT OF POSTS AWARDED TECHNOLOGY CONTRACT TO ACCENTURE

DEPARTMENT OF POSTS AWARDED TECHNOLOGY CONTRACT TO ACCENTURE

Department of Post Selected Accenture to Design and Develop New Information Technology Architecture and System

The Department of Post (DoP) has awarded a 45-month information technology (IT) modernization contract to Accenture (NYSE: ACN) to design a new enterprise IT architecture and migrate the DoP to a more efficient, reliable and user-friendly IT system.

Accenture also will advise DoP on the development of a wide-area network environment that helps connect all post offices on which various online services can run, and will study the feasibility of implementing an enterprise solution for the department's core banking and advanced financial services.

"The technology enablers will help DoP transform itself by increasing operational performance and achieving efficiencies through "last mile" connectivity," said Krishna G.V. Giri, who leads Accenture's Management Consulting practice within its Health & Public Service operating group in the Asia Pacific region. "Armed with greater speed, efficiency, and flexibility at DoP, the government will be much better positioned to share various social schemes, such as the Mahatma National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, with even the most remote citizens."

Accenture's work began in September with a business process re-engineering (BPR) exercise across key departments and core operations, such as mail operations, banking and advanced financial systems. Following the BPR exercise, Accenture will help select and monitor a vendor to enable the DoP to consolidate its technology infrastructure and applications.

The project is designed to help the DoP drive greater revenue and regain market share in different services and products, including bill payment, e-posts, life insurance, money transfer and banking.

According to Giri, DoP expects that the technology upgrade also will benefit citizens via speedier and more efficient banking and insurance services, track and trace abilities, and retail services. In addition, DoP will be able to compete effectively against local and international courier companies and increase revenue in the mail and logistics business.

Arrears calculator for GDS Employees

Arrears calculator for GDS Employees ( dtd 14/10/2009)


The GDS pay scale has been revised by the Sixth Pay Commission and consequent on this, payment of proportionate arrears has become due. In order to help the offices using Meghdoot Accounts in this job, a new application titled GDSArrears.exe is designed to work as an extension of the main accounts module.

Please note that this application can be used to draw arrears to GDS only on account of sixth pay commission implementation.

Please download the GDSArrears.exe along with the Config.xml file and copy it to any location in the system. First time when you are running the exe then it will prompt to enter the server name where accounts database resides. Give the accounts server name. Now the application is ready for use. To enter the server name manually, open the Config.xml file with notepad and enter the name of the server where the Accounts database resides. Alternatively, you can copy the exe to the folder where Accounts is installed in which case, the application can be executed easily.

System Administrator Seminar at New Delhi

Listen to me friends now the final moment has come. Everyone can speak in various websites (many blogs and sahuliyat) about System Administrator organising themselves and making the department understand in a stiffing manner that the SAs are important for the department. Unfortunately everyone present their views comfortably by just typing it on the key board but who is daring to BELL THE CAT. Now almost my preparation work in organising the System Administrators of the entire country is nearing its final phase. So far I have been touring to various circles personally and taking my own efforts in organising meetings for System Administrators and consolidating the problems they are facing. Only a very few circles are yet to be visited which will be completed by the end of this month. Now shortly in the month of November a National Level Seminar is going to be conducted for the System Administrators at Delhi. Previously such attempts were made but it proved to be futile, but this time after formal approval in the NFPE Federal Executive meeting with full preparation this Seminar is going to be conducted. The NFPE leadership has invited the officers of Directorate also for the Seminar to speak on specific topics. The Member (technology) Mr.Samant has also agreed to address the Seminar. The date of Seminar will be announced anytime after 13th of this month. Why this National Seminar ?-----------------------------------------
1. To arrive a consensus on what is exactly to be negotiated with the department for the System Administrators. So far every individual System Administrators have their own view and leadership are also presenting their views and acceptance level among cadres on each of the views presented could not be studied. So deriving a consensus about our demands which is acceptable to all the System Administrators of the entire country is very essential and need of the hour. To consolidate into a very small NUT-SHELL and focussing that demand alone and fighting for it. 2. To derive a action plan and to set a deadline date to get into some major action, it the department is still dragging the issue. Getting into some major action plan requires execution of that action plan uniformly through out the nation. This requires some extensive preparation and what ever decision taken should be democratic and acceptable by everyone. Then only executing it will be very easy and uniform. So dont take this National Seminar very lightly, it is going to be a very significant event in the life of each and every toiling System Administrator through out the country. I am very sure about that. I know some friends of Kerala are bound to criticise me even for this but anyway I am very focussed and committed. Nobody can bring down my will power. Respected friends of Tamil Nadu, please start organising and start collecting funds for booking the train ticket / flight ticket to Delhi. Once the date is announced book your tickets to Delhi immediatly. Dont delay start immediatly.
