The NIC J&K State Unit has successfully developed and implemented a Windows-based software named Personnel Information System (PIS) to help maintain a database of employees and to assist in easy retrieval of a variety of information in various formats. The package is designed to meet the requirements of the J&K Secretariat and its subordinate offices. The package has been implemented in two ways: as a stand-alone system to cater to the needs of offices outside the Secretariat, and as a client-server system for use within the Secretariat. This user-friendly system uses very attractive data-entry forms, and is supported by a very powerful query system. It is very easy to install and can be ported on any machine having Windows 3.11 or a higher version.
