  • Identify trends
  • Create mandatory funding reports as well as management reports
  • Interface with mandated systems
  • Replace existing redundant systems
  • Share data across departments and agencies for increased ability to coordinate services
  • Improve service delivery
  • Increase data integrity and quality through standardization
  • Decrease costs of maintaining separate unconnected systems
