HOUSE BILL

Introduced by HON. FERNANDO T. CABREDO

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to establish the Barangay Management Information System (BaMIS) in all
barangays in the Philippines. The BaMIS will serve as a repository of information of all the
residents, households, families, areas, businesses, transactions, budgets and expenses, cases and
morals (blotters), activities and projects, centers such as evacuation centers and health centers,
donors and volunteers, scholarships, among others.

Having a centralized system does not only help in the sorting of information but will also
be most useful in analysis and decision making at the barangay level. Especially in times of
disasters, natural calamities or this pandemic, barangay leaders will be able to forecast and assess
the needs of their constituents based on the information that was collated.

With this kind of system that is installed in every barangay, information will be
comprehensive, and its retrieval will be much quicker and timely.

‘The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) will spearhead
the development of the database system and maintenance by using cloud technology.
