ABSTRACT

Fig.1

We all are aware of errors and losses of funds and man-power arising from non-continuity of project ranging from one administration to another. This primarily comes or results from the deficiency associated with manual storage and processing of project information in project tracking information in the state, therefore this computer base project tracking information system of government projects all over the state from development stage to completion stage keeps awarded projects and information secured as it ensures adequate information security, time saving, easy storage and retrieval mechanism.

And the program was tracked on:

A little more about this program is it is a visual basic program, and it was used track the main profile information of all workers in imo state government. This was reloaded 25th august 2015.
