The Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure and Physical Planning is preparing to launch its Inspectorate Management Information System (IMIS) platform later this month.

Chief Electrical Inspector, Hetlyn Francis, told the Agency for Public Information (API) that the new platform will modernize the way electrical inspections are managed across the country.

The IMIS will allow contractors, electricians, and members of the public to submit and track inspection requests online, streamline scheduling, and improve compliance monitoring.

Mrs. Francis said the initiative reflects the Government’s commitment to efficiency, transparency, and accountability in public service delivery.

"This system will improve the way we deliver our services by making it easier for contractors, wiremen, and property owners to submit applications, request inspections, and make payments online. They will also be able to track their approvals in real time. It is all part of our commitment to greater efficiency, transparency, and, most importantly, electrical safety. We look forward to working closely with all of our stakeholders as we continue to strengthen the electrical industry and to ensure safer electrical installations across Saint Vincent and the Grenadines."

The launch of the IMIS is part of a broader national push to integrate technology into infrastructure planning and regulatory oversight, ensuring that Saint Vincent and the Grenadines remains on track with global trends in digital governance.
