With proven expertise in enterprise solutions and GIS technology, LMKR will develop and implement a comprehensive Management Information System (MIS) and a GIS-based mobile data collection application. These tools will enable LG&HTP to identify properties, calculate taxes, and perform valuations more effectively. A centralized platform will streamline operations, while taxpayers gain convenient self-service options to view tax information, bills, and payment statuses.
Nasir Tanveer, VP Technology Business & Alliances at LMKR, said: “Our partnership with LG&HTP underscores LMKR’s commitment to driving innovation in urban management. This project will empower Karachi with a sustainable and transparent property tax system, fostering trust and accountability.”
By leveraging GIS technology, LMKR’s solution will also enhance property assessments, minimize tax evasion, and enable data-driven decision-making. These improvements will contribute to Karachi’s transformation into a more competitive and livable city.
