The federal government has directed government officers to update their service data on the Human Resource Management Information System (HRMIS) by December 28, 2025, as part of a major initiative to digitize complete records of civil servants and modernize public sector management, officials confirmed on Friday.
The Establishment Division’s order mandates that all federal officers, including those in grades BS‑17 and above, must upload accurate details of their postings, training history, performance evaluations, and contact information on the HRMIS portal before the deadline. Login credentials and SMS alerts have already been issued to officers for prompt compliance, government sources said.
Officials explained that this move is aimed at replacing outdated manual personnel files with a centralized digital database that can be accessed instantly across departments, enhancing transparency, service delivery, and administrative efficiency. The new system will later support a mobile application to expand ease of access for officers nationwide.
This data update drive aligns with broader digital transformation policies being advanced across sectors in Pakistan, such as digital investment cooperation and technological partnerships. For instance, ongoing efforts to deepen Pakistan’s digital economy and investment landscape are highlighted in recent initiatives with China to expand digital infrastructure and tech investment.
In addition to HRMIS digitization, the government has recently reformed annual performance evaluation processes to be conducted online for many cadre groups starting January 2026, further reinforcing transparency and accountability in public service.
Authorities stressed that officers who fail to update their service data by the deadline may face administrative consequences, as the government intensifies its drive toward a fully digital civil service ecosystem.
Digital records, officials believe, will reduce paperwork, cut delays, and enable real‑time monitoring of workforce performance across federal ministries and departments.
