Notably, his tenure successfully completed 83 projects, prioritizing tangible actions over rhetoric, transcending caste, language, and provincial divisions. The results of these endeavors are expected to materialize in the coming months.

In his welcome address, CEO S I Global Noman Said stated that the ministry had integrated d all its departments under one roof which significantly improved the overall performance of the IT sector.

Under the former minister, Pakistan witnessed the emergence of several brands, and projects including Tech Destination, cloud computing, cybersecurity policies, and freelancing.
