FG directs MDAs to adopt BPSR digital tools for reform monitoring

The Federal Government has directed all Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) to adopt three digital tools to strengthen reform monitoring, knowledge management and performance tracking in the federal public service.

The tools – Reform Tracker, Knowledge Repository and National Strategy for Public Service Reform (NSPSR) dashboard, were launched by the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR) in June 2026 to deepen e-Governance and accelerate public service reforms.

The directive was contained in a statement issued to Blueprint.ng correspondent on Friday by Aliyu Umar Aliyu, Head, Strategic Communication, BPSR.

He said the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) gave the directive in a circular dated August 2026, with reference number 58786/S.III/C.6/T/56.

“According to the circular, all Federal Ministries, Parastatals, Agencies and Commissions (MPACs) are to register, onboard and actively utilise the platforms.

“The BPSR is mandated to facilitate the adoption, monitor compliance and report on implementation by respective institutions.

“The BPSR said the Reform Tracker Dashboard will serve as a central mechanism for monitoring reforms, milestones, quick wins and key performance indicators across MDAs”, he stated.

Through submission and verification of reform data and supporting evidence, he said the platform is expected to provide near real-time information on reform implementation, strengthen performance management and enhance accountability.

“The Knowledge Repository is designed as a central digital platform for storing and accessing reform-related policies, strategies, reports, guidelines, case studies and research outputs.

“It is aimed at preserving institutional memory, facilitating knowledge sharing, reducing duplication of efforts and supporting evidence-based policy development,” he said.

Under the directive, each MDA is required to designate a reform focal desk officer to coordinate reform-related activities on the platforms.
