Project Overview:

The Frontier Corps KP North, specifically the Bara Rifles division, required a robust, secure, and user-friendly Management Information System (MIS) to streamline internal workflows, enhance operational readiness, and improve transparency in duty scheduling, logistics, and reporting.
