Here is how and why IBM Mainframe System assists Cameroon Ministry of Finance and Senegal.

Here we talk about the modernization of the payroll processes for government employees in the country.

In this dynamic, since March, 2013, the new system, based on IBM mainframe and storage technologies, helps to increase the security of the Ministry's

payroll system and improve the efficiency of processes such as generating pay slips. At the end the goal is to provide the Ministry of Cameroon with a 200% increase in performance while reducing operating costs by 30%.

Connectikpeople can also recall that:

1.     Cameroon's Ministry of Finance uses the new z10 Business Class mainframe to run its messaging applications based on IBM Lotus Notes and Lotus Domino software.

2.     By running business analytics applications, the Ministry will also have a clearer view of payroll processes to support better decision making.

3.     The Cameroon and Senegal governments join a growing number of organizations and companies in growth markets that are deploying IBM mainframes,

4.     By implementing the Linux open source operating system, the Cameroon Ministry of Finance will also increase connectivity between different government departments and make it easier to hire and train engineers to operate and maintain the new system.

Under the terms of the agreement, IBM will also provide the Ministry with IBM Total Storage and tape drive.
