SPARROW :
Department of Personnel & Training (DoPT), as a part of Digital India Initiatives, has directed that eOfficeSPARROW shall be implemented for digitalization of processes for management of Annual Performance Appraisal Reports (APAR). SPARROW is an application developed by National Informatics Centre.

The acronym expands as Smart Performance Appraisal Report Recording Online Window. The application is designed for management and automation of processes for APAR’s from the initiation stages and upto appeals. Implementation of SPARROW is expected to significantly improve management of APAR’s by ensuring timely and accurate movements and improve transparency.

It is planned to implement SPARRROW for the officers (JAG & Above) of the Ministry of Railways starting with the APAR’s for the year 2016-2017.

Objective & Scope :
This document has been prepared to document and explain the process of implementation of SPARRROW on Indian Railways. The instructions contained in this document shall be applicable for officers of all units of Indian Railways with the exception of PSU’s.

Nomination of Personnel for Management of SPARROW Activities :
For management of SPARROW and related activities the following roles need to be assigned to specific officers in all railway units that maintain a confidential cell

Email forum for SPARROW Managers :
All officers nominated for management of SPARROW and related activities shall mandatorily register with the common email forum as per the instructions in the table below. The officers shall use their Gmail-ID’s and contact cellphone numbers for enrolling to the groups / forums as detailed below. Any issues regarding the rolling out of SPARROW shall be posted on the common email forum created for the purpose of the activity.

Pre-requisites for users (and managers) of SPARROW :
The following are the pre-requisites that shall be ensured for all users (including managers) of SPARROW. All nominated officers shall ensure that these are compiled and kept in readiness by all officers of their respective units at the earliest. These are the vital data elements that are required to be pre-loaded for creation of user accounts on the SPARROW portal.

eMail ID by name on ‘gov.in’ domain :
All officers shall have a valid and working email account on the ‘gov.in’ domain, hosted on the NIC servers. The email service requires that the user registers a functional cellphone number for delivery of password resetting codes.

Note : It is recommended that the user registers a permanent private number as a recovery number for the ‘gov.in’ email account. This is preferred as the email account shall remain with the officer through the service and use of officially provided CUG numbers adds complexity when persons change on transfers and postings.

Aadhaar :
All officers shall be enrolled with UIDAI and have a valid and functional Aadhaar ID.
Aadhaar linked cellphone number :
Each officer shall ensure that the Aadhaar ID is linked to a functional cellphone number.

Note : It is recommended that the user registers a permanent private number with Aadhaar. This number shall be used to send the OTP for digitally signing the documents using the eSign services. Use of officially provided CUG numbers adds complexity when persons change on transfers and postings.

Officer’s personal data for addition to the Employee Master Details (EMD) Database :
Each officer shall submit personal information required to create the employee master details (EMD) Database. This data set consists of officer’s personal data like name, date of birth, date of joining, PAN etc. The exact information required shall be listed in the form on the REIS website.
