MEA Visit Report COMPLETE

The purpose of this app is: The Program Monitoring and Implementation Unit (PMIU), School Education Department, employs 1100 field officers as MEA. These field officers visit all the public schools across Punjab, every month, and report key stats including:

(A) Student enrollment

(B) Teacher presence

(C) Availability of utilities.

MEAs traditionally filled out extensive paper-based survey forms. In August 2014, PMIU and the School Education Department worked with PITB to develop an android app and equip MEAs with SIM-enabled tablet-PCs, allowing them to digitally submit forms in real-time. The benefits of the new monitoring mechanism have been enormous, and include real-time reporting with pictorial evidence, geo-tagging of sites visited, and automatic SMS alerts on below target performance.
