BROOMFIELD, CO - June
14, 2007. Innoprise Software, Inc. today announced that St. Lucie
County's Fire District in Florida has contracted with Innoprise
Software, Inc. for new financial management software that will replace
the district's legacy system. St. Lucie purchased Innoprise Financials,
Human Resources and Payroll software, along with hardware and
implementation services. The District is located on the eastern edge of
the south-central coast of Florida in the heart of what is known as "The
Treasure Coast". Three Battalions, totaling fifteen stations, serve
three municipalities as well as the unincorporated area of St. Lucie
County.
St. Lucie is scheduled to implement Innoprise financial
software first with a target go live of October 2007, followed by Human
Resources and Payroll software.
Innoprise applications use a Java™ 2 Platform, Enterprise
Edition (J2EE™) architecture that enables advanced functionality not
possible with older-generation legacy systems. "Our existing financial
package is still using the same code written 20 years ago," said Gary
Perdew, Clerk-Treasurer for the district. "Our existing application was
very difficult to learn, cumbersome to use and frustrating when trying
to retrieve data for reports," added Perdew.”
The district was looking for a solution that was
user-friendly, web-based and utilized the newest technology validating
the Innoprise solution is at the beginning of the product life-cycle.
"The new software uses pull-down menus for simple application
navigation," explained Perdew. "All of the modules look very similar.
When the user understands how to use or navigate one module they can
very easily learn the nuances of the others," added Perdew.
The Vendors making the final list were Innoprise, Banner,
ADP and MUNIS. When the selection committee reviewed the responses their
number one comment was the Innoprise solution offered the district the
most value per taxpayer dollar spent versus
the other packages. "The district is looking forward to all
of the benefits the new integrated financial system," said Perdew.
