This impeded consolidated reporting and trend monitoring which contributed to certain operational and regulatory inefficiencies. The implementation of this project will streamline the County Environmental Health Department's business by utilizing a single, consolidated software solution as well as proven technology advancements. This effort is consistent with the County's strategic plan goal, "Workforce Excellence and Fiscal Responsibility." Once implemented, the deployment of EnvisionConnect will fundamentally improve internal processes; businesses will find it easier to work with the division using a new online portal for applications, complaints, and payments. This effort will culminate in a modern, auditable, integrated, secure, and effective data management system that will drive LA County Environmental Health's day-to-day business and strategies as a regional leader. Kevin Delaney, President of Decade Software, explains, "I am thrilled to welcome Los Angeles County Environmental Health into Decade's extraordinary user community. Our implementation team is already engaged, applying our experience and methodology to this essential project. We are very fortunate as LA County brings a wealth of knowledge and leadership. We couldn't be more excited." Los Angeles County Department of Public Health's Environmental Health Division protects public safety by performing inspections, permitting, and other service activities that enforce standards that prevent disease and illness. Examples of their programs include retail food (food safety), hotels and other multi-tenant housing, swimming pools, drinking water, solid waste, sanitary septic systems, body art, and others. Decade Software Company has been doing business with local health departments for over 25 years. EnvisionConnect is Decade Software's consolidated data management system that propels regulatory agencies' methods by tracking, organizing, reporting, billing, and permitting local programs. From field inspector to the back office, EnvisionConnect streamlines and automates processes. The automation offered will save LA County time and enhance customer service.
