MMPs - MMP

A Mission Mode Project (MMP) is an individual project within the National e-Governance Plan (NeGP) that focuses on one aspect of electronic governance, such as banking, land records or commercial taxes etc.

Within NeGP, “Mission Mode” implies that projects have clearly defined objectives, scopes, and implementation timelines and milestones, as well as measurable outcomes and service levels.

The NeGP comprises 44 Mission Mode Projects (MMPs), which are further classified as Central, State and Integrated Projects.

The 44 Mission Mode Projects are categorized and divided – 13 Central MMPs, 17 State MMPs and 14 Integrated MMPs. MMPs are owned and spearheaded by various Line Ministries. State Governments are responsible for implementing State MMPs, under the overall guidance of respective Line Ministries in cases where Central Assistance is also required. The Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY) acts as the facilitator and catalyst for the implementation of NeGP and provides technical assistance to various Ministries/Departments and State Governments.

Components of Mission Mode Projects: The following are the components of MMPs –
