A software, Issues Identification Resolution Mechanism, IIRM an analysis tool for problem solving, aimed at facilitating achievement of deliverables and mandate optimisation in Ministries, Departments and Agencies has been unveiled.
Mrs Offiong Anyanwu, Chief Executive Officer of STRANSFORM, a Strategy Consulting Firm based in Abuja with offices in the UK and the United States said the software was developed to promote strategic and focused service delivery in Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs).
The spokesperson of STRANSFORM, Mr. Anthony Anyanwu in an official statement to newsmen in Abuja, said that the idea was muted in the Presidential Delivery Unit in 2017 for identification and resolution of issues in the Social Investment Programmes when STRANSFORM’s CEO Mrs Anyanwu served as Senior Strategic Adviser.
‘‘In 2019, STRANSFORM expanded its capabilities and developed the mechanism into a Software that deploys logical iteration and critical thinking for issue identification, subsequent resolution and knowledge management.”
Anthony said that the objective of the software was to ensure proactive identification of issues and challenges that could impact negatively on attainment of deliverables of a Ministry, Department or Agency’s mandate.
‘‘This software was successfully deployed in the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs Disaster Management and Social Development to facilitate optimisation of its mandate.
”The resultant effect was the all green score card achieved by the Ministry in the recently concluded Ministerial Mandate Review Retreat 2022.The software has been deployed accros the agencies of the ministry,” he said.
According to Anthony , the software was the game changer for intentional achievement of not only ministerial deliverables but also attainment of Government’s Priority Area objectives.
Interaction with the software will result in a new breed of strategic, result focused civil servants that will change the narrative associated with the level of productivity in the civil service.
The software was deployed in October through November 2022 at the instance of the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs Disaster Management and Social Development.
Plans are in place to deploy the software across the various MDAs in 2023.
