Cuttack to set up PMU to increase efficiency of civic body

The Cuttack Municipal Corporation (CMC) will soon establish a programme management unit (PMU) for increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of the civic body in the implementation of welfare and development programmes in the city. PMU will be established and manned by a team of experts with a developmental background including specialisation in critical areas such as livelihood, education, skill development, drinking water and sanitation, health, infrastructure and environment among others, which will provide technical assistance and feedback to different service delivery wings of CMC. The civic body has also floated a tender for the selection of an agency for setting up the PMU. The CMC’s proposed PMU will consist of a team leader, a deputy team leader, two sanitation experts, one procurement expert, three civil experts, and two mechanical experts.
