CrimsonLogic to Develop Citizen Data Vault for Uttaranchal

Singapore based IT services provider CrimsonLogic will design, develop and implement a Citizen Data Vault for the State of Uttaranchal. The Citizen Data Vault will store statistical and biometric data of Uttaranchal’s eight million citizens and will be the single source of access for the State’s 109 government departments.

CrimsonLogic will also develop a statewide Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for the secure delivery of eGovernment services in the state.

The SGD three million project comprises three of components -- a state-wide survey of Uttaranchal’s citizens through a Multipurpose Household Survey, the establishment of the Citizen Data Vault and the distribution of PKI-enabled smart cards to the citizens to access eGovernment services online or via public kiosks. The project is expected to be completed by end 2006.

The Citizen Data Vault will serve as the state’s central data hub and the single source of citizen data for its 109 government departments. The Vault will help to standardise the way citizen information is recorded and presented, as well as give the state government better management and control over the data.
