To better protect the public, provincial and state-level governments regulate, audit and issue licenses to certain industries. AMANDA automates licensing functions in agriculture, animal health and other regulated industries.
Agriculture & Animal Health - AMANDA tracks agricultural producers/importers, testers, processors and transporters with features designed to help keep the animal and human food supplies safe:
· Food Producer Licensing – The software automates licensing for producers (e.g. farms and dairy processing plants) and ensures that they meet license conditions such as reporting pesticide use.
· Laboratory Data Integration - AMANDA imports ongoing test results from labs, automatically determines risk profiles from test histories and shares the data with producers and veterinarians via the web. Mobile PAL software helps track animal and plant inspections.
· Premise Identification – AMANDA collects NAIS-compliant premise identification data and exchanges it with other state or federal databases using industry-standard protocols.
· Disease & Vaccination Tracking – AMANDA tracks animal health to fight diseases such as Mad Cow and Johne’s disease which affect livestock. The software manages vaccination programs to protect animals against infectious outbreaks. AMANDA can track the health of an animal as well as its movement across herds. This information is useful for Agriculture Departments, veterinarians and animal owners because it helps them find the source of the outbreak quickly and accurately to stop the spread of disease.
Regulated Industries - Governments are always exposed to public criticism when it comes to regulating restricted activities: AMANDA ensures that governments effectively monitor industries that affect public safety:
· Many governments license security guards and private investigators so communities have competent security and police officers can track them. The system evaluates inputted applications, such as flagging applicants who admit to committing a felony. Educational information such as, school attended, grade received and any other information can also be attached to a person’s file.
· With the help of Mobile PAL, governments can inspect businesses licensed to sell alcohol, tobacco or hold gaming events. Governments curtail regulated/restricted goods and activities through taxes and AMANDA manages all taxes collected from these types of businesses.
· AMANDA helps state and provinces stay on top of installers and engineering occupations, even when a state board or bureau does the licensing. AMANDA manages the inspecting and testing of these state-regulated trades, which helps ensure the safety of those in the workplace.
· Governments audit and regulate government buildings and private workplaces to ensure that the public and workers are safe. Our Mobile PAL software gives AMANDA data to inspectors such as workplace information, previous inspection results, photos and checklists. This helps them in their efforts to minimize incidences and keep the public safe.
