Government
Profile
The centralized purchasing and contracts division of the city is tasked with maximizing the value of public funds to support the procurement of goods and services for the ongoing operations of the city.
Business Need
The division has a significant flow of requirement, request, bid and contract related documents coming into and out of the office. A team of project managers oversees the many active projects. Management needs to access the status of projects as well as to quickly and easily find current contract documentation.
Why They chose Mumboe:
The division chose Mumboe as part of a pilot project to improve efficiency. Management quickly decided to expand the scope and involve the entire team due to the immediate gains in visibility and standardization of the contracting process. Status reports for staff meetings are easily generated using Mumboe, and the turnaround time for requests regarding supporting documentation for contracts is down to minutes from hours or even days. The affordability coupled with the flexibility to meet the city’s needs make Mumboe a perfect fit.
Profile
The county government is responsible for many local public services and receives funding from a variety of sources including taxes and grants.
Business Need
Multiple county offices needed a centralized location to store grant documentation and contracts for goods and services. Attempts to create a clear picture of the current obligations resulted in a confusing paper drill, typically lasting weeks, and resulting in out of date and inaccurate information.
Why They chose Mumboe:
One of the county offices started using Mumboe to track grant funding obligations. The Auto Extract feature quickly transformed non-standard data buried in the grants into actionable content by creating milestones, notifications, summary views, and reports. Mumboe’s implementation and usability were so simple, other county offices quickly followed suit and started using Mumboe to store their contracts and grants. Mumboe’s Auto Extract feature standardizes the terms and conditions for reporting and has made Mumboe an integral part of the grants and contracting process. Mumboe’s flexibility and affordability allow the county to scale when needed.
