Challenges Ahead - NER
Hard core items of demand recoverable and station outstanding due to large number of court cases- disputes to be resolved.
Frequent budget cuts and multiple allotments in Plan Heads (DF/DRF) and OWE ( controllable PUs)
9
Challenges Ahead - NER
Abnormally large number of works being sanctioned by DRMs earlier (more than 500 WIPs in some divisions), thereby reducing focus and thin spreading of scarce resources.
Poor maintenance of service records and leave accounts by personnel and Engg dept.
Delayed sending of records in accounts for service verification and final settlement - NER to launch drive for advance verification of services of employees scheduled to retire in next three years.
10
Challenges Ahead - NER
Loose yard-sticks for creation of additional posts leading to pressure on Finance. No change even after high investment in new technologies year after year.
Frequent changes in IRPSM in respect of budget distributed by executive departments and non up-dation of expenditure.
The scheduling of debits is required under e-recon to facilitate acceptance of debit only after its acceptance by the concerned executive departments.

12
Suggestions- NER
There should be emphasis of outsourcing in selected areas by surrendering posts available for that purpose.
Issue of Outsourcing - Clarity on out sourcing to be provided such as
Mechanical Laundry issue – Outsourcing vs Departmental Laundry
P-way outsourcing
OBHS and CTS
More co-ordination required among divisions/railways to ensure EFFICIENT cleaning and avoiding duplication of expenditure
More comprehensive directives required on OBHS (Round trip/ Per hour rate)
13
Suggestions- NER
Quarterly reconciliation meeting of Dy. CAO/Gs for clearing transfers of vetted service records/leave accounts/PF balances/ balance of advances etc. of employees involved in inter-railway transfers.
Online system of Global PF accounts / employee ID for all purpose and auto-credits/updating of accounts including loans and advances irrespective of the Zone.
The IRPSM should be linked with e-recon so that the debits/adjustments should be also incorporated in the updated expenditure.
Conservative estimation of earning and planning of expenditure based on targeted operating ratio needed.
14
Suggestions- NER
Delay in joining of RRB recruits – 2006-08 recruits being given joining in 2013. Meanwhile many facilities being outsourced leading to duplication.
Need for vacancy bank and supernumerary post should be reassessed.
Shifting of E-recon schedule from 25th of month to 10th of following month and advancing the schedule for store transactions can help in provisional account serving the purpose of final account.
Link be provided to executive in E-recon for online acceptance of debits.
15
Suggestions- NER
Appeal by JAG/SG regarding adverse APR by GM against positive rating by FA&CAO to be considered by Financial Commissioner
Option of changing Zones for IRAS officers to derive benefits form better practices of other Zones.
High end training in Corporate and Strategic Finance.
Compulsory foreign visits for IRAS officers to learn and implement world class practices in area of Accounts and Finance.
