    Challenges & Changes Needed

    Program on this scale never conceived


    Each Pillar/program has own challenges
    Human Resource Issues

    Financial Resource Issues

    NIC - not equipped for a fraction of this task (obsolesce) - needs revamping & restructuring
    DeitY needs program managers at least 4 more officers at senior levels
    Ministries Need a Chief Information Officer / Chief Technology Officer (CIO/CTO)
    Could begin with CIOs 10 major Ministries
    Can be anyone from within or outside government
    To be patterned as AS & FAs dual reporting
    Mostly structured around ongoing programs : Better focus, need some restructuring
    Some others are process improvements or better utilisation of resources
    A few new programs may be needed particularly in Electronics manufacturing and Skill
    Development

    Coordination Issues

    Program covers many other departments


    Need commitment and effort
    Leadership and support critical for success
