Project Overview
Rescue 1122 manages emergency operations across all of Punjab. Manual inventory tracking across 100+ stations was causing critical shortages and procurement delays — we solved it end-to-end.
Centralised Stock Control
Single dashboard giving province-level visibility of all equipment, vehicles, and medical supplies across every station.
QR-Based Asset Tracking
Every asset tagged with a unique QR code. Scan to check in, check out, transfer, or mark for maintenance — from any device.
Automated Alerts
Low-stock and expiry alerts trigger automated notifications to station heads and district managers before a shortage occurs.
Key Features
Built specifically for the operational demands of emergency services
Vehicle Fleet Management — track availability, mileage, and scheduled maintenance per station
Multi-category Inventory — vehicles, medical equipment, PPE, tools, uniforms tracked separately
Multi-location Dashboard — district and province managers see consolidated views across all stations
Role-based Access Control — Station Head, District Manager, Province Admin, and Auditor roles
Procurement Workflow — raise, approve, and track purchase orders end-to-end within the platform
QR Code Asset Tagging — scan-based check-in/out and transfer with full audit trail
Expiry & Low-stock Alerts — automated notifications before medical supplies expire or run critical
Reports & Analytics — utilisation rates, consumption trends, and audit-ready exports

Challenges & Solutions
Technical and operational hurdles we navigated to deliver
Challenge
Synchronising inventory data across 100+ geographically distributed stations in real time
Solution
Built a centralised PostgreSQL database with a Redis caching layer — stations read from cache and write are propagated within seconds, keeping every location in sync without polling overhead.
Government-grade Solution
Built for scale and compliance
Challenge
Government compliance requirements — strict audit trails, role separation, and data residency on-premise
Solution
Implemented immutable audit logs (append-only table), RBAC with four permission tiers, and deployed entirely on government-provided on-premise Linux servers via Docker containers.
Government-grade Solution
Built for scale and compliance
Challenge
Legacy paper-based data migration — years of manual inventory records needed to be digitised and imported
Solution
Built a one-time CSV/Excel import pipeline with validation rules, duplicate detection, and a review UI so station staff could verify migrated data before going live.
Government-grade Solution
Built for scale and compliance
Results & Impact
Measurable improvements in Rescue 1122 operations across Punjab
Reduction in manual inventory errors versus the previous paper-based system
Faster procurement cycle — from requisition to approved purchase order
Rescue stations across Punjab connected on a single real-time platform
Critical supply shortages reported since the system went live
