"We embarked on our journey in 2000, pioneering DPO ERP software for the police department amidst the Y2K challenge. Transitioning from land based to bandwidth mainframes and Windows OS posed formidable hurdles, yet we navigated them meticulously. As the global economy unfolded, we diversified our solutions to bandwidth based platforms. Amidst the global recession, we continued to innovate, expanding offerings to include learning management and back-office solutions. The recent paradigm shift to cloud-based systems, exacerbated by the pandemic, demanded swift action”, speaks R. Siddesh Kumar, Managing Director.

Revolutionizing Education

VAPS' solutions streamline operations with Digital Campus ERP, engage audiences via dynamic digital signage, and simplify access to information with advanced interactive kiosk machines. Interactive whiteboards revolutionize classroom dynamics, while digital content libraries enrich teaching.

“In India, the education landscape boasts a rich diversity of institutions, each with unique teaching methodologies and domain knowledge. Despite the abundance of educational institutions, the need for a unified platform to seamlessly cater to their requirements is evident. We met this need by providing a comprehensive Learning Management System (LMS) that seamlessly integrates with existing platforms. This integrated solution encompasses course creation, assessment, gamification, and security measures tailored for online learning. Amidst the challenges posed by the pandemic, VAPS' adaptable solution ensures continuity in education delivery, facilitating accessibility and connectivity for students worldwide”, elaborates Siddesh.
