Enabling Citizen-Centric Governance through  MeeSeva

Challenge 

In the early 2000s, the Government of Andhra Pradesh envisioned a radical transformation in the  way public services were delivered—moving from fragmented departmental systems to an  integrated citizen services model. The vision was clear: provide seamless, anytime-anywhere  access to essential government-to-citizen (G2C) and business-to-citizen (B2C) services  through a single platform. 

But realizing this vision came with significant challenges: 

Fragmented Service Delivery: Citizens were forced to navigate complex departmental hierarchies  and physically visit offices to avail services. 

Infrastructure Gaps: Many urban and rural areas lacked the digital infrastructure, connectivity, or  trained personnel to support online service delivery. 

Scalability: With millions of potential users and 400+ services, the platform needed to be robust,  scalable, and citizen-friendly. 

Service Reliability: Ensuring real-time responsiveness, uptime, and reconciliation across thousands  of centers statewide demanded a cohesive operational framework. 

Public Adoption: Citizens were unfamiliar with online services and required both awareness and on ground support to engage meaningfully. 

The need of the hour was not just a portal, but a dependable and inclusive digital public  infrastructure capable of transforming governance at scale. 

Solution 
Raminfo emerged as a strategic implementation partner, leveraging its decades of experience in  e-governance and IT-enabled services. Raminfo was awarded contracts for both eSeva in its  initial phase and later for MeeSeva Urban Operations (Zones I & II), covering nearly the entire  state of Andhra Pradesh through over 1,600 Urban Franchisee Centers.

Operating under a Build–Operate–Maintain–Transfer (BOMT) model, Raminfo’s solution  encompassed end-to-end ownership of service delivery. Key elements of the solution included: 

Unified Digital Platform: Raminfo designed and maintained a secure, integrated portal offering  400+ G2C and B2C services. The platform enabled real-time payment processing, MIS dashboards,  digital certificates, and online status tracking for citizens. 

Robust Infrastructure Support: From IT hardware (PCs, printers, routers) to offline servers, power  backups, Raminfo managed end-to-end infrastructure, ensuring system uptime and data security. 

Comprehensive Operations Management: Raminfo deployed over 158 Aadhaar supervisors  annually, trained thousands of operators, and maintained 24×7 functionality across centers through  SOPs, biometric systems, and CCTV surveillance. 

Customer Support & Helpdesk: A statewide helpdesk and escalation system was established to  resolve citizen issues, backed by automated reconciliation tools. 

Digital Tools & Reporting: The system featured real-time dashboards, MIS reports, auto-escalation  of grievances, and integration with backend government systems, improving efficiency and  accountability. ∙ Mobile MeeSeva Rollout: To improve accessibility, Raminfo also supported the launch of Mobile  MeeSeva, allowing citizens to access services through smartphones, reducing footfall and wait  times at physical centers.

Impact 

The impact of Raminfo’s long-term engagement with MeeSeva has been both wide-ranging and  measurable: 

69.8+ million transactions processed across Zones I & II, covering both coastal and inland districts. 

400+ services delivered, including both government-to-citizen (G2C) and business-to-citizen  (B2C) categories. 

Significant cost and time savings for citizens, especially with the rollout of Mobile MeeSeva ∙ Faster service delivery with well-defined SLAs, streamlined processes, and centralized tracking. ∙ Improved transparency and citizen trust through real-time grievance redressal and audit trails. 

∙ Operational excellence with 57 high-traffic urban centers and over 405 counters managed  efficiently across shifts and locations. 

Raminfo’s work on MeeSeva redefined public service delivery by blending governance expertise  

with digital infrastructure. The initiative stands as a benchmark for citizen-first, scalable transformation—where technology simplifies lives and builds trust between people and public  institutions.
