MANILA – All records of the Philippine Army (PA) will now be digitized.
This came after the PA and technology solutions provider Master's Stewards Information Technology (MIST) signed a deal of digitization under the Office of the Army Adjutant at the Army Headquarters in Fort Bonifacio on Wednesday.
"The signing formalized the agreement between the PA, represented by Army Adjutant Col. Danilo E. Estrañero, and MIST Solutions, Inc. represented by its managing director Ms. Mary Ann Cabal-Soleno," PA spokesperson Col. Xerxes Trinidad said in a statement Thursday.
He added that the digitization project is part of the PA leadership’s efforts to leverage technology in providing relevant and responsive services to soldiers.
The Office of the Army Adjutant serves as the repository of information of all Army officers and men from commissionship or enlistment to retirement.
"This digitization will help the PA expedite the processing of benefits due to deserving personnel specifically our KIA (killed in action), wounded, sick and retirees,” PA chief Lt. Gen. Romeo S. Brawner Jr. said. (PNA)
