CSR Management and Evaluation Platform for a Public Sector Mining Enterprise
Learn how TechCSR brought order, transparency, and field-level accountability to one of India's largest public sector mining enterprises, managing 400+ CSR projects across multiple states from a single unified platform.
Project Introduction
A large public sector enterprise in the mining sector operates across multiple states with a mandate that extends well beyond mineral extraction. Through its extensive CSR program, the enterprise drives meaningful community transformation, spanning education, healthcare, infrastructure, sanitation, and livelihood generation in and around its project areas.
But managing CSR at this scale is an enormous operational challenge. With over 400 active and completed projects spread across diverse and often remote geographies, the enterprise was running its CSR function on a fragmented mix of spreadsheets, emails, and offline reports. There was no single source of truth. Field-level visibility was minimal. NGO performance tracking was inconsistent. Budget reconciliation was slow and error-prone. And for leadership, gaining a clear, real-time picture of where money was going and what impact it was creating was nearly impossible.
TechCSR was engaged to design and implement a custom CSR Management Platform, purpose-built for this scale, structure, and public sector compliance requirements — integrating project tracking, financial control, NGO oversight, GIS-based visualization, and offline-capable field operations into one cohesive system.
A robust, centralized platform capable of managing 400+ CSR projects across multiple geographies, with real-time field monitoring, SAP integration, structured NGO oversight, and automated compliance reporting, built for the complexity of a large public sector mining enterprise.
TechCSR designed and delivered a custom-built, multi-module CSR Management Platform specifically tailored to client's scale, field realities, and governance requirements. The highlights of the application are:
- Intelligent Route & Task Allocation System: A dynamic field task allocation engine that analyzes a field officer's starting point, evaluates distances between assigned locations, considers project priority levels, and automatically generates the most efficient daily route, recalculating in real time after each task is completed to maximize field productivity.
- NGO Management & Monitoring: Partner database management, due diligence documentation, deliverable-based milestone mapping, and periodic reporting integration for full NGO accountability.
- Financial & ERP-Level Control: Expense tracking against approved budgets, fund release monitoring, project-wise financial summaries, and an audit-ready data structure for complete financial discipline.
- SAP Integration: Seamless integration with client's existing SAP environment, ensuring financial data consistency, eliminating duplicate data entry, and improving end-to-end financial transparency.
- Map-Based Project Visualization: A standout feature of the platform, interactive GIS maps with geo-tagging of project locations, location-wise project visualization, and district/state impact distribution tracking for data-backed geographic reporting.
- Mobile App with Offline Data Capturing: A dedicated CSR mobile application for field officers and NGOs featuring field data capture, geo-tagged updates, image uploads, and full offline functionality, critical for client's remote mining area operations, with automatic real-time sync when connectivity is restored.
- A fully digitized, governance-driven CSR ecosystem replacing fragmented spreadsheets and manual oversight across 400+ projects.
- Enhanced transparency through real-time project and financial visibility, clear audit trails, and centralized documentation accessible to all authorized stakeholders.
- A comprehensive reporting ecosystem generating 32+ report types, including project status, budget utilization, NGO performance, geographic impact, and milestone closure reports, dramatically reducing manual reporting effort.
- Improved budget discipline with easy tracking of allocated versus utilized funds, reduced reconciliation time, and tighter financial control at every project level.
- Strengthened ground-level accountability through geo-tagged progress updates, real-time field documentation, and verified implementation tracking.
- Faster leadership decision-making through dashboard-based insights, location-wise project distribution visibility, and priority-based monitoring across all geographies.
