TRD\MVD Point-of-SaleProject Close 03/23/2011
Purpose of the Project • Implement modern financial processes for $380 million in annual MVD revenues. • Provide Point-of-Sale technology to all MVD Field Offices, enabling MVD to accept cash, credit cards, and checks in the Field Offices. • Integrate POS with the existing MVD 2.0 system which creates the transactions for the Shopping Cart process in POS.
Previous Processes • Use “cigar box” method of collection and tracking revenue: manual cash drawers not linked to any system; faxed paper reports • Lack of standardization; use of hand-held calculators to make change and reconcile money collected • Manual paper reconciliation and daily close forms; use of 40 Excel spreadsheets to account for and distribute (e.g. to local governments) the collected revenue
Process Implemented • Automated cash drawers capable of accepting checks, cash and credit cards • Cash drawer functionality is integrated with MVD2.0 which creates the transactions and identifies the cost of each transaction. • Standardized processes in cash collection and collections reconciliation. • Electronic calculation of EOD closing per clerk.
Project Accomplishments • Statewide Implementation and Rollout of 289 POS workstations in Seventy (70) offices completed December 15, 2010. Final IV&V December 31, 2010. • This was on schedule for the revised delivery estimated in summer of 2010. Exceptions: White Sands Office PRAs ACD
Business Objectives The business objectives published in the Project Charter 2008 included:
Business Performance Measures No baseline exists that can be used for either Business Objective. However the MVD Field Offices have experienced the following improvements: BO1: Clients can now pay for services with credit cards. Previously cash was the only available payment method. BO1: Fees charged are more accurate BO1: The process to reconcile and audit clerk activity is more accurate and less susceptible to fraud. BO1: Previous to implementing POS, some offices used a cardboard box to collect funds. The current POS system uses a secure cash drawer. BO2: Dot Matrix printers in the offices have been replaced with laser printers. BO2: The introduction of laser printers has reduced the service call load to geographically dispersed MVD offices.
