Modernizing State Financial Management and Digital Operations
Comsoft deployed a comprehensive digital financial management solution (CABSOL™ AFMS) for Borno State Government, improving operational efficiency, transparency, and accountability across all departments. This project also included the deployment of 3 data centers, preparation of IPSAS-compliant GPFS, and capacity building for over 350 staff members, ensuring a sustainable and scalable solution for state-wide financial operations.
