IPAS application software (the software for AIMS) has been developed by CRIS on web based 3-tier centralized architecture using Java and Oracle. It will bring a common application to all Railways on a centralized platform so that similar processes are followed across Railways in terms of accounting practices. A key benefit of such centralization would be faster change management and integration of effort along with automation of processes. IPAS application is undergoing a continuous up-gradation exercise to achieve better efficiency, security and safety. IPAS will provide real time access to financial transaction data across IR and will also bring financial and fiscal discipline.
