FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Advanced Brings Fulton
County Live on CIS Infinity
CIS Infinity offers
up-to-date technology, comprehensive functionality and interoperability
ATLANTA, GA and TORONTO, CANADA - March 31, 2009 - Advanced
Utility Systems (Advanced) has successfully brought Fulton County
live on CIS Infinity. CIS Infinity will assist the County in furthering
its commitment to operational efficiency as well as customer service.
With CIS Infinity, the County now has a modern, functionally rich
customer information solution that replaced its 20-year-old legacy
system. CIS Infinity provides a broad range of capabilities that
were previously unavailable to the County. The benefits of this
include increased billing accuracy and the ability to create rates
more easily. CIS Infinity also offers the County five levels of
reporting which consist of: the option to filter and export data;
access to hundreds of standard reports; the ability to modify the
standard reports; the ability to design customized reports and a
function that allows users to share reports that they have created.
“Developing innovative and up-to-date functionality has always
been our mandate when it comes to CIS Infinity,” states Steven
Hammond, General Manager for Advanced. “This enables our clients
to make their business processes more efficient which in turn assists
in timelier customer service.”
As Prime Vendor, Advanced managed the implementation of CIS Infinity
but also coordinated the full integration of its customer information
system to the County’s Computerized Maintenance Management
System (CMMS) and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) System. This
supports the County in quicker notification of completed service
orders and more efficient routing of customer service calls to the
correct parties.
“The interoperability that Advanced provided was done quickly
and accurately while also minimizing costs,” notes Lee Poolman,
Division Manager for Fulton County. “Their strategy protected
our budget and we are now in a good position to offer enhanced customer
service.”
Another initiative that the County will be introducing to their
clients is credit card payment processing via eCARE – the
Advanced online payment application.
Fulton County provides service to over 70,000 water and sewer accounts.
