PAKISTAN

NetSol Technologies Limited (NETSOL), one of Pakistan’s leading software companies, has signed a major agreement worth over Rs500 million with the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) to launch the next phase of the province’s Paperless Government Project.

The company announced the development in a notice to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) on Friday, stating that the project is funded by the World Bank.

“NetSol Technologies has entered into a landmark agreement with the Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, valued at over PKR 500 million, to implement the next phase of the Paperless Government Project,” the statement read.

According to the company, the initiative builds on Phase I, which successfully digitized key workflows such as summaries to the chief minister, cabinet processes, and other core paper-based operations. The upcoming phase aims to expand automation across departments and establish secure inter-agency integrations to enable faster decision-making and enhanced auditability.

He added, “We are proud to partner with the provincial government in driving greater transparency, accountability, and efficiency in public administration.”
