Result: CIWQS accommodates the business process but Modifications would be beneficial
Approach • Reviewed business process • Regulatory work of issuing and managing permits • Used an application (Report of Waste Discharge) from Region 8 to create a regulatory measure* in a test environment • Evaluated critical components of CIWQS * A regulatory measure is a CIWQS record representing any type of action the Water Boards take. Permits and enforcement actions are different types of regulatory measures.
Business Process Application Adoption Data to EPA Billing Self Monitoring Reports Inspections Enforcement Critical Components of CIWQS Database Screens Business Rules Reports Analysis
Pro Once reg measure is created process is straightforward Issues to Resolve No Reports Consistency of screens and business rules Requires regulatory measure to be created Complicated Party/Place Duplicates Business Process - Application • Applications can be tracked
Pro Queries containing status of order Tasks associated with adoption can be tracked Issues to Resolve Dates are critical for signifying order adopted/in effect but date rules can be confusing Business Process – Adopt Order • Order adoption can be tracked
Issues to Resolve Mapping of facility data Mapping of monitoring report data Technical functionality Business Process – Data to EPA • Not necessarily an automated process but PCS/ICIS will be fed
Pro Reports containing billing information Issues to Resolve Hidden data impacts reports For some fee codes info is in multiple screens Business Process - Billing • Billing information can be transferred
Issues to Resolve Bulk of data is not in CIWQS Functionality isn’t being used Business Process – Self Monitoring Reports • Functionality exists to set due dates and record receipt dates
Pro Scheduling from reg measure module pre-populates some information Issues to Resolve Discoverer and screens don’t match for inspector Business Process - Inspections • Inspections can be scheduled and tracked
Pro Improved functionality to link multiple violations at once Issues to Resolve Complicated process Change in procedures and requirements have confused users Need required ACL Report Business Process – Enforcement Actions • Enforcement actions can be tracked
Assessment • Generally meet our needs • But • Complexities • Flexibility • Number of Steps • Data • Reports
Next Steps • Same process with regional board staff so we can see the process from their perspective • Will help find missing communication points • Identify where to concentrate training • Screen changes • Build in business rules and efficiencies • Reports • Developing additional reports • Self Monitoring Report Tracking • Issue in progress
