LAHORE, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 15th Jun, 2026) The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Monday launched the Integrated Judicial Officers

Performance Management System (IJOPMS), a comprehensive digital platform

aimed at enhancing transparency, accountability and efficiency in the judicial system.

The system was formally inaugurated by LHC Chief Justice Aalia Neelum at a ceremony

attended by Director General Judicial and Case Management Javaid Iqbal Bosal,

senior officials and members of the court's IT team.

Additional Registrar (IT) Jamal Ahmed briefed participants on the features of the newly

developed system, describing it as a major step towards the digital transformation of

the district judiciary. He said the platform was built on three key components: the Human

Resource Management System (HRMS), the Examination Management System, and

the Performance Monitoring and Complaint Management System.

According to the briefing, the HRMS would maintain and manage judicial officers' service

records, including professional profiles, transfers and postings, seniority, Annual Confidential

Reports (ACRs), leave records and training history. The Examination Management System

would digitally track professional assessments, while the monitoring and complaint management

module would facilitate real-time evaluation of judicial performance, case disposal rates

and the handling of complaints and inquiries.
