We are thrilled to announce the official launch of the Integrated Municipal Information System (IMIS), a GIS-based Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) designed to transform municipal governance. Jointly organized by GWSC at the Asian Institute of Technology and Innovative Solution Pvt. Ltd., with support from the Gates Foundation, IMIS empowers local governments with data-driven decision-making, advances Citywide Inclusive Sanitation (CWIS) while contributing to SDG 6.2, and streamlines various urban services. By promoting efficient, inclusive, and sustainable cities, IMIS is set to revolutionize public service delivery, embedding data-driven, evidence-based decision-making into municipal governance.

Birendranagar Municipality is taking a significant step toward digital transformation with the implementation of the Integrated Municipal Information System (IMIS). This initiative aims to streamline municipal operations, enhance service delivery, and support efficient governance through digital solutions.

A joint team from Innovative Solution Pvt. Ltd. (ISPL) and Global Water & Sanitation Centre (GWSC) recently met with Captain Mohammad Fida Hasan, Chief Waste Management Officer (CWMO), Md. Arafath Hossain, Assistant CWMO, Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) officials, and UNICEF Bangladesh to discuss the development of the Schedule Desludging Module (SDM) in the Integrated Municipal Information System (IMIS).

The SDM aims to digitalize the schedule desludging process in Zone 3, enhancing DNCC's sanitation services and setting a new standard for smart city solutions.
