Published

on

Entrepreneurs are always influenced by their Ideas and live in the dream world even make castles in the air but economically and in business terms  , such startups always end with their logical end  . Startup owners always think that their idea will work and  open the money Streams fro them which is really unpractical approach . To have crystal and clear vision and logical framework coupled with Professional and Technical input ,will always lead to Success .
Entrepreneurs mostly young do not have the experience to run such Ideal or Idea based Businesses ,they are just fueled and Thrilled to start their own business and Become the  Chief Executive Officer of the Same  unlike other Startups who soon transformed into Enterprise or Corporate Entities and opening Money streams for their founders or  co-founders and these Young Entrepreneurs are featured by the world’s best business Magazine such as Inc.com . Forbes.com , Entrepreneur.com and Time.com .  
Here are the three Common Mistakes which should be  avoided  to escape heavy financial losses or even failure of Startup Company .
1. Ambiguity or Lack of Clear Idea
Startup owners always fumble with Idea and they do not have the clear Idea or dual ideas which really make them confuse to choose  which will work and which will not . Entrepreneurs ambitious regarding Startup Ideas Often go with both which becomes  the main cause of their failures since their Idea was not filtered ambiguous and the end results was very terrible . Your Investment ,energy and budget ends in smoke . To be successful  with your Ideas ,You need to be clear with Idea and Research the Market for its viability whether the Idea you have pinpointed is sustainable ,innovative and beneficial to the massive people .
2. Lack of Business Planning during Beginning 
Planning leads to success  with lots of opportunities favoring your Startup and contributing  in the success and Development of your Ideas  . Planning is the integral part of  Business and Business planning or development business plan is the key which gives you clear road map to Development ,Growth and in the end ,the Success which is the dream all the entrepreneurs . We have seen several Startups failing soon after their launch despite investment of Millions . The Question always pops up in your minds that why this happens ???  . The answer is very simple “lack of Planning ” Without planning ,No business or Project can be completed with the targeted results or estimated profit limits .
3. Ignoring the Target Customers , Markets and Competitors 
Keeping the target customers in view is the most strategy which will really test your nerves when you will be competing with already established business with similar Products . Study of Market , Customer trends , Market Research analysis , Competitors base  and their influence  is necessary in order to produce any products or offer any innovative service . Young Entrepreneurs are usually in hurry to launch their Startups which costs them lot since they enter the markets without any Market Study , Market Research , Estimate Target Customers .
To avoid these mistakes ,It is necessary that Entrepreneurs should have Market Overview , Estimate of Competitors and their Customer base and Analysis that why the customer should buy your service or Products since similar products are already available in the market . You must specify the features of your products or services which are different from your competitors .

Sania Approves Cognitive API Architecture For Ehsaas’ One Window Socioeconomic Registry

Published

on

 Islamabad: The Cognitive API architecture for Ehsaas’ National Socio-Economic Registry 2021 is one of the six main pillars of ‘One Window Ehsaas’. With the survey, which is building the registry currently 90.5% complete nationwide, Ehsaas is firming up its plans to open data sharing and data access services for all executing agencies under Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety Division (PASSD).

Data sharing will be done through the Cognitive API Architecture approach. The deployment of Ehsaas API architecture for data sharing will allow executing agencies to access data from the unified registry in real-time to validate beneficiary information. This will empower them to ascertain eligibility of potential beneficiaries. The benefits which each family and individual is receiving from each organization will be visible to all agencies across all Ehsaas programs.

There will be two-way data sharing; agencies with whom data will be shared will also be required to update the registry with their own information, hence the registry will become more robust over time. A final presentation was made to Dr. Sania Nishtar who closely oversaw this process. She praised the technical team working on Ehsaas Cognitive API Architecture approach and congratulated them. Later, this service will be extended to provinces and other government agencies implementing Ehsaas programs as well.

The API architecture for data sharing will facilitate adoption of the Ehsaas One Window targeting Policy. The objective of this policy is to make targeting predictable, evidence based, transparent and effective in the Ehsaas ecosystem. Under the same architecture, the Utility Stores Corporation has also been linked with the Ehsaas database, which will underpin execution of a commodity subsidies program. This approach is being adopted for the first time and will usher in transparency. Previously, there was no way of one government agency knowing what support an individual or a family was getting from another government agency.

Some families with connections and influence were getting multiple benefits and other more deserving ones were getting none. Now, with the data integration, Ehsaas agencies will be able to see what benefits an individual or the households is getting. But more importantly, it will also reflect their entitlement in terms of various Ehsaas programmes and initiatives, because the data sharing is pegged with the Ehsaas One Window targeting Policy.

The integrated registry and the cognitive API Architecture for the registry is one pillar of the One Window Ehsaas, which will be launched this week. It has six main components: one-stop-shop centers; an integrated digital interface facing the office; a digital information and services platform; a mobile app; an integrated database comprising of cognitive API architecture; and the standardized beneficiary targeting policy.
