LMS

Indian Railways, one of the largest railway networks in the world, serves millions of passengers daily. Managing large-scale operations like laundry services for bedrolls is a complex task that requires precision, efficiency, and accountability. Recognizing the need for modernization, Indian Railways partnered with Sedulous Softech to develop a Custom Laundry Management System, a first-of-its-kind solution tailored to their unique requirements.
