The Punjab Information Technology Board, an autonomous body set by the Government of Punjab, provides the foundation for Punjab’s innovation economy. The Board aims at not only modernizing the governance techniques through transparency induced methods but also at increasing the digital literacy of the citizens among many other services. PITB is committed to effectively and efficiently provide IT services and infrastructure to the government and local and international businesses.
Punjab IT Policy focuses on 5 key pillars
(1) Support for the IT Industry
(2) Bridge the Digital Divide
(3) e-Governance
(4) Citizen-centric Services
(5) Entrepreneurship
As the Province’s technology spearhead, PITB is responsible for maintaining the foundational IT infrastructure and system of Punjab i.e. a data center for hosting along with managing official email identities. Our organization has provided systems and solutions that have positively impacted the Health, Education and Law & Order sectors of the province. Moreover, PITB’s immense efforts towards better and transparent mobile governance reforms have been acknowledged globally as well, for instance, recently the World Bank’s President appreciated our mobile governance reforms at the World Bank’s Daylight Dialogue 2014 in the Philippines. Additionally, PITB is striving to promote entrepreneurship culture in the country along with the capacity building of both professionals (public and private sector) and students from across Pakistan.
PITB has laudably achieved success and has effectively worked towards the aims and objectives under which it was formed.IT is the fastest growing industry in the world and keeping in view its demand, the Government of Punjab felt the need to create a department that would be solely responsible for its prosperity through Information Technology. It was further decided that the department shall also monitor global opportunities, cater to the growing needs of IT, develop policy alternatives, and plan and rapidly implement initiatives for building an internationally competitive IT industry in the province. Resultantly, Punjab Information Technology Board was formed in 1999 as an autonomous body under the Department of Industries. An Ordinance in this respect was passed by the Governor on March 27th, 1999.
PITB was given under the administration of the Information Technology Department on the 15th of October 2001. After the dissolution of the Information Technology Department in 2011, PITB was attached to the Planning & Development Department of Punjab.
