Flash Report on Central Sector Infrastructure Projects worth ₹150 crore and above

The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has operationalised a new web-based portal, PAIMANA (Project Assessment, Infrastructure Monitoring & Analytics for Nation-building), for the mandated monitoring of Central Sector Infrastructure Projects worth ₹150 crore and above, replacing the erstwhile OCMS-2006 (Online Computerized Monitoring system). In line with the principle of “one data, one entry”, PAIMANA is integrated with DPIIT’s Integrated Project Monitoring Portal (IPMP/IIG-PMG) through APIs, enabling automatic data flow of the information reported by Central Ministries/ Departments on IPMP. This integration has substantially reduced manual data entry, with about 60 per cent of projects on PAIMANA being updated automatically, contributing towards the standardised, and efficient infrastructure project monitoring by the Government of India.

The PAIMANA portal functions as a centralised national repository of infrastructure projects, enabling web-generated analytical reports and enhancing data accuracy, and operational efficiency. Key features of the portal include advanced data analytics, role-based user access, interactive dashboards, reporting and query modules, and review cases for identification of data gaps, thereby supporting improved data quality and informed decision-making. The operationalisation of PAIMANA has been undertaken in extensive coordination with over 20 Central Ministries/Departments, DEA and DPIIT, encapsulating project mapping, data migration, analytics and validation.

Following the adoption of the portal, a comprehensive data sanitization exercise of the IPMP database is underway, along with continuous efforts to onboard more stakeholders and, include both legacy and newly sanctioned projects. At present, 1702 ongoing infrastructure projects have been onboarded on the PIAMANA portal, with further onboarding of stakeholders and projects underway.
