I am trying to work on a project where i am supposed to install softwares and packages on one system and it should replicate on other systems connected on LAN. How can i proceed with this? I was thinking of creating a server with local ppa repository with all packages to be included. Can this be done? Or is there a better way to do this?

Here is what I would do:
Create a launchpad account.
Sign the Ubuntu Code of Conduct.
Make a PPA.
Write a metapackage that depends on all the packages you want to install. Every time you install a package, update the PPA.
You can learn how to write a metapackage here.
Add the PPA to all computers you want to update.
Run:
sudo apt-get install yourmetapackage
When you change the PPA:
sudo apt-get upgrade
