New Service: Strategic Plan Comments Database

KeyLogic has developed an application for the EPA’s Office of Planning, Analysis & Accountability (OPAA), a division of the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO), which will track comments on the office’s 2006-2001 Strategic Plan for the public.  The application was developed in Lotus Notes / Domino and features a web front-end that is visible to anyone on the internet via the EPA OCFO’s website (http://www.epa.gov/ocfo).

The database also includes a client-side notes form that employees can use to enter comments received on the phone, via e-mail, or from a meeting.  Once in the database, comments can be viewed by teams working on specific goals and can potentially affect the contents of the Strategic Plan.  The notes database that stores the comments features a notification mechanism, which is used to send goals to specific teams and categorize goals to make them easier to locate.

This application is typically used for a few months every three years, but previously required numerous database updates involving additional time, effort and expense for the agency.  However, the Strategic Plan Comments Database developed by KeyLogic was designed in a more flexible and robust manner, allowing the EPA to easily maintain content, thus reducing time and cost.
