About the client
Tourism, Archaeology & Museums Department, Government of the Punjab
The Tourism, Archaeology and Museums Department oversees tourism across Punjab, including the licensing of hotels in the province's tourism sector. Its work touches both businesses and the public, so dependable licensing processes and responsive handling of citizen concerns are central to its role. VulcanTech was selected for this programme through a competitive public tender.

The challenge
What needed to change
The department's core administrative processes had developed without a centralised, role-based system. Hotel licensing for the province's tourism sector was handled through manual processes, and citizen complaints arrived through ad hoc channels, making them difficult to track through to resolution. Staff access was not governed by a single system, so there was no consistent way to define who could view or act on licensing and complaint records. For a government department, this created challenges of oversight and accountability: records were fragmented, the status of individual cases was hard to establish, and citizens had no dedicated route for routine queries. The department required a secure internal portal that would bring these functions together under clear, permission-based control.
The approach
How VulcanTech delivered
- 01
Establish operational requirements
VulcanTech worked with the department to define its hotel licensing and complaints workflows, and the distinct access levels required by the different groups of staff who would use the portal.
- 02
Design for secure access
Role-based access was built into the portal's architecture from the outset, so that every function is governed by the permissions assigned to each individual user.
- 03
Build integrated modules
Hotel licensing, complaints management, the citizen-facing chatbot and user management were delivered as connected components of one centralised portal, all sharing a single, common permission model.
- 04
Centralise departmental operations
The department then moved licensing and complaint handling onto the portal, replacing scattered manual processes with a single administrative system governed by clear, permission-based control.
The solution
What was delivered
VulcanTech delivered a secure administration portal for the department. A centralised Hotel Licensing workflow manages licensing for the province's tourism sector within one system. Complaints management brings citizen complaints into a single place for intake and tracking, replacing ad hoc channels. A citizen-facing chatbot gives members of the public a direct route for routine queries. User Management allows administrators to add and edit users and assign access tiers, so each member of staff sees and acts only on the records appropriate to their role. Together, these components give the department centralised, permission-based control over functions that were previously handled through disconnected manual processes.
