Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has officially launched two pivotal Information Systems: the Presidential Directives Management Information System (PDMIS) and the Foreign Travel Information Management System (FOTIMS).
The unveiling event was held at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC) in Nairobi.
Gachagua hailed the initiative as a significant leap in addressing concerns about decision-making transparency raised by Kenyans.
He emphasized that these systems are key to ensuring that the President’s directives are tracked and implemented efficiently, thus upholding the dignity and authority of President William Ruto.
“The Presidential Directives Management Information System (PDMIS) and Foreign Travel Information Management System (FOTIMS) are a huge milestone in our quest to deal with obscurity in decisions undertaken as raised by Kenyans recently,” he said.
The PDMIS will provide a comprehensive platform for monitoring and executing presidential directives, ensuring that each is carried out in full and in a timely manner.
Her added that the FOTIMS is set to revolutionize the management of foreign travel for public servants by improving the application, processing, and approval of travel requests.
“It will play a crucial role in promoting the prudent use of public resources and ensuring accountability for travel-related expenses,” he said.
The launch was attended by several key officials, including Attorney General Dorcas Oduor and Cabinet Secretaries Dr. Margaret Ndung’u (ICT), Justin Muturi (Public Service), Beatrice Askul (EAC Affairs and Regional Development), and Wycliffe Oparanya (Cooperatives and MSMEs), along with various Principal Secretaries.
