“Registration will be completed through OTP verification, document scrutiny and approval processes,” an official said. “The system will also identify scheduling conflicts and allow users to acknowledge assignments, request shift swaps or apply for leave,” the official said. Nashik : The Nashik-Trimbakeshwar Kumbh Mela Authority (NTKMA) has decided to introduce an integrated digital platform to manage volunteers and manpower during Simhastha Kumbh Mela, covering registration, training, deployment, attendance and emergency mobilisation. Each registered individual will have a digital profile capturing skills, role preferences, availability, language proficiency, medical fitness, work experience and certifications. A key component of the platform is digital rostering and deployment. Personnel can be assigned to ghats, camps, control rooms, parking facilities and transport hubs based on manpower needs, skills, availability and certifications.

The authority has floated a request for proposal (RFP) to appoint an agency for the design, development, operation and maintenance of a volunteer and manpower management system. The platform will function through a web portal and mobile application and will be integrated with NTKMA’s website and app. The proposed system will manage self-registered volunteers, permanent and temporary authority staff, manpower supplied by agencies, and personnel from govt bodies like Home Guards, MSRTC and disaster-management agencies. NGO volunteers, coordinators and staff deployed at the Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC) will also be included. Attendance monitoring will be enabled through multiple modes, including the cellphone app, QR-code scanning, biometric devices and manual supervisor entries. The platform will compare attendance records against duty allocations and flag no-shows, late arrivals, early departures and overtime. The system will also manage logistics, including transport and accommodation. Vehicle details, boarding points and seat allocations can be linked to deployment schedules, while accommodation, meals and medical-support arrangements can be tracked digitally. Officials will have access to a GIS-based dashboard displaying deployment locations, manpower availability, live attendance, incidents, transport routes and accommodation facilities. During emergencies, alerts can be targeted to personnel based on their role, location, zone or shift. Download the TOI App.
