Kano State IFMIS Overview
The KIGRA platform is a secure, web-based application that serves as an invoicing and
payment portal for the Kano State Government across both tax and non-tax revenues. It has
in-built financial transaction controls designed to prevent the abuse of bank mandates by
tying invoices to payments while providing an executive dashboard for government to
monitor the flow of funds from citizens into designated revenue accounts.
The platform provides interfaces for stakeholders in the Kano State Revenue Collection
process to interact with the necessary agencies/individuals for assessment, invoicing/billing
and payment purposes.
The platform provides various dashboards at both executive and operational levels to
monitor all revenue related activities and measure performance against pre-defined metrics.
The KIGRA platform is modular, and integrates various software services that perform the
information gathering, processing, storage, retrieval and transmission of data required to
manage public payments and the sweeping of funds into the state-mandated revenue
accounts. The system is connected to all Nigerian banks, local switches (NIBBS) and payment
gateways and switches using the supported payment platforms. KIGRA's Electronic Bill
Presentment and Payment (EBPP) framework will facilitate the use of electronic channels by
citizens to view/pay bills and perform other related transactional activities on a self service
basis.
