The Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary (RPNGC) has taken a significant step in its digital transformation journey with the adoption of GovPSS, a human resource management system developed by Dakoii Systems, one of Papua New Guinea’s leading locally-owned software development companies.
Dakoii Systems has successfully delivered the platform’s payslip, employee management, and position establishment modules to the Constabulary, marking the first phase of a broader effort to modernise how RPNGC manages its workforce. The system is already live, giving police personnel direct, round-the-clock access to their pay records for the first time.
Payslips, Anytime and Anywhere
For many officers, the most immediate change is also the simplest. Previously, obtaining a copy of a payslip meant submitting a request to the Human Resources office and waiting — sometimes for days — for it to be processed and returned. With GovPSS, that process is gone.
Every officer can now log in to a secure personal portal and view or download their current and historical payslips at any hour of the day, from any device with an internet connection. Whether an officer is stationed in Port Moresby or serving in a remote post, the same information is available instantly. This is particularly valuable when payslips are needed at short notice for loan applications, housing arrangements, or other personal and financial matters.
Because GovPSS is entirely web-based and hosted on secure cloud infrastructure, there is no software to install and no waiting for office hours. Payslips become available the moment the payslip is uploaded by the HR. The HR will only have to upload the full payslip file and the system will automatically redistribute the payslip to each officers which they will be able to access it in their own account.
A Single Digital Home for Workforce Records
Alongside the payslip module, Dakoii Systems has delivered employee management and position establishment report capabilities that give the Constabulary a unified, digital view of its workforce.
The employee management module maintains an accurate record for each member of the Constabulary, covering personal details, contact information, employment status, and organisational placement. The establishment and organisational structure module captures how the Constabulary is organised — its departments, units, and positions — and tracks what those positions are filled against approved staffing. Together, these tools replace fragmented paper records with a single, reliable source of information that HR administrators and management can rely on for day-to-day decisions and longer-term workforce planning.
Access to the system is controlled and role-based, ensuring that personal information remains confidential and that each user sees only what they are authorised to see.
Built in PNG, for PNG
A defining feature of the project is that GovPSS was designed and built in Papua New Guinea, by Papua New Guineans, for the realities of the country’s public service.
Rather than adapting a foreign HR platform, Dakoii Systems built GovPSS from the ground up to reflect how PNG institutions actually operate — including the policies and procedures set out in the Department of Personnel Management’s General Orders. This local grounding means the system speaks the language of PNG’s public service and fits its established ways of working, rather than forcing the Constabulary to bend its processes around imported software.
“We are proud to be a Papua New Guinea-owned company contributing directly to the RPNGC’s mission to digitalise,” said the Director and Chief Software Engineer at Dakoii Systems. “Delivering payslip and employee management to the Constabulary shows what is possible when local expertise partners with a national institution. Officers no longer have to wait on HR for something as basic as a copy of their own payslip — they can get it themselves, anytime.”
A Foundation for the Future
The current deployment is the one of the many phases of a wider modernisation roadmap. Building on the foundation now in place, future phases are expected to expand the system into a full HR management platform — introducing capabilities such as digital leave management, complete employee personnel files, an automatically generated career History Card for every officer, and additional modules aligned to PNG’s General Orders.
For now, the message to RPNGC personnel is a straightforward one: their payslips are in their own hands, available whenever they need them.
