I,m a PMS officer from 2nd batch........... here, a few friends tried to differentiat PCS from PMS and led the readers astray... 

1)Provincial Civil Service(PCS) was made up of three branches

a)PCS-Executive

b)PCS-Secretariat branch(provinicial secretariat service...PSS)

c)PCS-Judicial branch;

All these three streams put together made Provicial civil service(PCS) but in common understanding PCS stood for Executive Branch;2)...PPSC conducted combined competitive examination for the Posts of Extra Assistant commissioners and Section officers......

. the toppers usually joined Executive branch whereas the left over joined secretariat branch......

here its important to mention after the exam the two streams separated once for all..

Erst while EAC served in the field doing Magistarial duties whereas, section officers worked their whole careers in the head quarters.After Devolution plan in 2001,Magistarial System was abolished and field officers were redisgnated as DDOs.DOs,and EDOs.......

PMS,was created in 2004,whereby all streams were merged and multipurpose service was created with enormous horizantal mobility.... PMS officers unlike PCS are simultaneously field officers and serve in the secretariat.... like DMGs.They can serve and are serving in every provincial department..As i,m serving in judiciary as special judicial magistrate, my batchmates are serving as DDO(R),(C),(G),(S), (colony),(HRM)(registration)DMOs,AD(ACE),SJMs,D.D (LDA),Dy.Project Managers(PIWCP).PRSP,SOs.......... many of them as Administrators of TMAs....,TMOs,Political Assistants etc....... PMS is entirely a new job with enormous scope..........

Provincial Management Service (PMS) is a cadre quite different from the earstwhile PSS or PCS. It has been recognized as the premier service of the Province of Punjab. It is being hoped that this cadre would emerge at par with the DMG in the province of Punjab due to the following reasons.

1. PMS Officers will join the office of DDO at field what DMGs also join at the beginning of their career. They will not join as their subordinates as happend earlier when they used to join as EACs working under the ACs.

2. Their training is being improved to reduce the difference of training between the PCS/PSS and DMGs. Those PMS Officers who will stand at the top postions in MPDD by the end of their training, will be sent to Singapore Civil Service College for further development of their potential.

3. Number of seats at field and secretariat are being increased with the passage of time which ll be helpful for rapid promotions of PMS Officers.

3. PMS officers ll be working on all type of managerial positions in the province (may be outside on deputation) and not merely in revenue department or as section officers.
