Over 2,000 local and state agencies use Accela, a suite of government software solutions designed to increase citizen engagement and accelerate growth, efficiency, and transparency. With Accela, small government agencies can leverage big city technologies with out-of-the-box solutions like desktop and mobile applications, data analytics, and task management tools that speed up processes by 30-50%. Solutions include planning, building, business and occupational licensing, public safety, and environmental health.
Accela allows governments to build thriving communities, attract and grow businesses, and give citizens an open view into their local government, but it involves a lot of data – data you’ll need to move from Accela into systems for ePlanning, document management, online payment processing, financial, and citizen portal software platforms. You’ll also need to transfer information back into Accela. Passing data between systems is where things can get complicated. Transforming the data requires workflows, time, and manpower, and mistakes are costly.
