The work involves implementing the next phase of the Odisha State Workflow Automation System (OSWAS 3.0), extending TCS’ partnership with the Government of Odisha by around six years. Powered by TCS DigiBOLT™, the platform will integrate workflow automation, integration, analytics, security and AI-enabled capabilities on a common digital foundation.
OSWAS has helped Odisha move away from a largely paper-based way of working to a more transparent and efficient digital process. By enabling digital file movement, electronic approvals, real-time tracking, and easier access to records, OSWAS is helping government officials work more efficiently.
TCS in a regulatory filing said that since 2009, OSWAS has replaced paper-based filing processes and manual follow-ups with a more transparent and efficient digital process. The system supports more than 4,600 government offices and nearly 50,000 users statewide.
The IT services major firm has been a long-standing technology partner to the Government of Odisha, supporting digital initiatives across governance and citizen services.
“Odisha has been ahead of the curve in using technology to make governance more efficient and transparent. OSWAS 3.0 will build on this strong digital foundation with a more secure, scalable and mobile-first platform. It will empower officials to work with greater speed and visibility, strengthen accountability, and enable a more connected and responsive administration across the state,” said Sushil Jain, Head-Public Services India, TCS.
In 2018, OSWAS 2.0 brought about a technology refresh, stronger infrastructure and a wider rollout across directorates, districts and corporations, extending the platform’s use across the state administration. In the latest phase, OSWAS 3.0 will introduce a modern, secure and scalable platform, built on microservices architecture and supported by AI-enabled capabilities and a mobile-first design.
TCS further said that solutions such as OSWAS in Odisha and RajKaj in Rajasthan, along with initiatives in Tamil Nadu and Gujarat, are helping governments simplify processes, connect systems, and improve public delivery. While each solution is tailored to the state’s needs, the underlying platform integrates workflows with AI capabilities, giving governments the flexibility to add new capabilities, it added.
“With advanced capabilities, Odia language support, and deeper integration across government applications, OSWAS 3.0 platform will accelerate the journey from decision to implementation, delivering more efficient and outcome driven governance for people of Odisha,” said Vishal Kumar Dev, IAS, Additional Chief Secretary to Government, E&IT Department Government of Odisha and Chairman Odisha Computer Application Centre (OCAC).
TCS also said that the implementation of OSWAS will improve accessibility and usability by enabling Odia language support and integration with government systems.
