More openness and accountability in the food department's activities would be assured by online monitoring of food warehouses, which includes regional food offices, district offices, and upazila offices.

The project aims to build an integrated online platform to manage and monitor food stock across the country. 

FS&MMS will support the development, installation, and initial operation of a nationwide electronic monitoring system for food stocks. Modernisation of the food movement process through technology, such as selecting the optimum route in a digital process, tracking food vehicles via an app, receiving real-time performance updates and monitoring moisture in the food storage, among other functionalities.
