What is iMMIS in Indian Railways

iMMIS (Integrated Material Management System) is an application to integrate the MMIS application running on individual servers in different zonal railways. Materials Management Information System (MMIS) was developed at Central Railway in 1998 initially for COS office, Stores, Accounts office and five major depots of the Central Railway. Since then, the system has undergone several customizations and is now successfully implemented on most of the Stores Depots, Divisions & Stores finance branches all over Indian Railways. 

Now, with the need of the hour, the present decentralized MMIS running on individual server in zonal railways is being integrated at CRIS (Centre for Railway Information Systems), New Delhi with the iMMIS (Integrated Material Management System) web based application on central servers. In the first phase, Local purchase module of iMMIS has been rolled out for implementation in all depots and divisions of stores department of zonal railways.
