The Public Works Department (PWD) of Madhya Pradesh is set to conduct a workshop-cum-training program for engineers and technical officers in the construction sector at Ravindra Bhavan in Bhopal. Madhya Pradesh PWD Minister Rakesh Singh announced that approximately 2,000 engineers and technical officers from various departments will participate in the workshop, including the PWD, the Project Implementation Unit, the Madhya Pradesh Road Development Corporation, and the Madhya Pradesh Building Development Corporation.
Chief Minister Mohan Yadav will inaugurate the workshop, where he will unveil a booklet and officially launch the Project Management System Portal–2.0 of the state PWD. The Portal–2.0, developed by the Madhya Pradesh Building Development Corporation (MPBDC), serves as an advanced digital management platform to enhance project execution and monitoring. Singh highlighted that the system ensures systematic, transparent, and efficient implementation of all construction projects by employing a Responsible–Accountable–Timeline framework to monitor and maintain accountability.
Singh mentioned that the workshop will feature national-level experts providing insights on capacity building, green building concepts, modern construction technologies, quality control, and innovations in the construction sector. This capacity-building initiative aims to enhance the quality and efficiency of construction projects in Madhya Pradesh while updating engineers and technical officers on the latest technical knowledge, quality-based construction processes, and sustainable development principles. Moreover, the Madhya Pradesh Road Development Corporation and the Madhya Pradesh Building Development Corporation will sign Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with prestigious institutions like the Central Road Research Institute, the Indian Academy of Highway Engineers, the Engineering Staff College of India, the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, and the School of Planning and Architecture, Bhopal.
