Case Study: MACP MIS
REI is current enhancing and supporting a web enabled MIS for MACP. This MIS provides a
data-driven platform for Project officials to take timely decisions. The MIS functions are
segregated according to the Government of Maharashtra’s three Line Departments that are
relevant to the MACP. These department units function as Project Implementation Units (PIUs).
