Visualize for a moment about Pakistan where disasters are responded to efficiently and
swiftly. As a result, many lives are saved while the destruction of property is reduced
Introduction and people in communities feel safe. Thanks to the transition of a digital world that
and dream is not far-fetched at all. These ever changing landscapes, populous towns and
Background the threat posed by natural calamities compelled Pakistan to have contemporary
effective system in place considering its topography. Technology has provided many
offerings towards addressing these issues as well as making people participate fully in
disaster management.

How Pakistan can leverage frontline technologies to create a more responsive, data-
driven and coordinated approach to the management of emergency is outlined in this
Management plan. To integrate the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cloud

Description The Current Challenge:

of Problem
or The Present Challenge: Some obstacles are being confronted by Pakistan's
Opportunity present emergency response system:
• Less Equipped: It is commonplace that funding and equipment
necessary to respond effectively during emergencies are comparatively
deficiently present.
• Communication Breakdown: There is disjointed communication
among different organizations which result in delays and even confusion
amidst crises.
• Outdated Technology: Our inability for a quick response gets thwarted
by previous communication mechanisms and manual practices.
 The Opportunity We Can't Miss:
Digital transformation provides a thrilling opportunity to empower us to do the
following:
• Predict it: Apply IoT sensors to detect early natural disasters and real-
time monitor critical infrastructure.
• Communicate effectively: Install one central digital platform where all
emergency services can easily share information and collaborate.
• Become fast to provide assistance: Use AI to examine data and provide
the best way of planning the deployment of emergency personnel and
responding to resources.

Cost/Benefit The Investment:

Analysis
 From Start to PKR Equivalent: Approximately PKR 5 Bn in hardware
& software implementation nationwide.Ultimately, PKR Equivalent
PKR 500 m would be invested in training and stakeholder engagement
to: Building Skills and Trust.
 Integration and rollout cost PKR 1 bn: Make it Work Together
Seamless

The Ongoing Costs

Annual Keeping It Running Smoothly COST IN PKR EQUIVALENT: Annual
maintenance and upgrade cost: PKR 500 m

 Interpretation of data: PKR Equivalence to 200 million per annum for

the services and analytical analysis which can be paid.Total Annual
Costs PKR Equivalent 700m
 The Payoff: Saved Lives and Dollars A projected 25% reduction in
response times will save untold numbers of lives and vastly reduce
property damage.
 Positive Impacts on Pakistan:
Impacts and
"Faster response to emergencies and, therefore, a reduced loss of life or
Risks casualties as well as minimal property damage." That ease to reach the people
faster, especially the unfrequented areas.

 constitute position in Pakistan: By using this digital

transformation technology for emergency management, Pakistan can
establish itself as one of the leading country in innovation. That would
make it more likely that other countries and organizations could provide
support and investment for disaster preparedness.
 Increased Resilience. A stronger disaster risk management
infrastructure with improved early warning systems and disaster
response mechanisms to help Pakistan rebound from natural disasters
such as floods or earthquakes. In layman's terms, that means faster
rebuilding and a stronger future for communities.

Change Takes Time : we anticipate that there will be some resistance to

changing within organizations. It will require open communication, training
Challenges programs and a strong emphasis on benefits to well manage the transition
We Can
Overcome: Initial Investment: The upfront cost is expensive. The public-private
partnership, phased implementation and cost-saving tactics altogether can
definitely make a difference in bringing this plan into action.

Protecting the System: As we rely more on digital systems, there is ample need
to ensure that strong cybersecurity measures are kept in place so no cyberattack
can be launched and data cannot be wasted. We will invest in the best security
solutions and protocols to earn their trust.

Conclusions and The Future is Bright:

Recommendations
Digital transformation lays a great opportunity to revolutionize Pakistan’s
current emergency response system. Although, initial one needs to be
cautious and his approach for the return of investment is in long terms but
in the end human lives saved.. a more stable society..a stronger Pakistan.
And Go Big: Rolling out such digital technologies nationally would
maximise the beneficial outcome.

Invest in People: Place training and change management at the forefront

to ensure that everyone can, and will, leverage the new systems as
intended

Measure and Improve: Furthermore, always evaluate how the new

systems are performing to meet your needs for improvement and
adaptation.

Lastly, We will people in place and implement robust cybersecurity

measures. To safe guard our digital infrastructure and people data beieves
fundamental step lies around sound encryption using solid algorithms etc
