Transportation Agency Requirements Management Automation

Digital Transformation through Transportation Agency Requirements Management Automation

The work of Public Sector (Federal, State, and Local) Transportation Agency’s primary teams do not happen in a vacuum. The teams responsible for program requirements management are interconnected with other areas of Public Sector (Federal, State, and Local) Transportation Agencies operations, including downstream systems such as those controlled by and used by Transportation Officers. It is imperative that alignment be achieved across all stages of the Public Sector (Federal, State, and Local) Transportation Agencies operations to maximize effectiveness and operational excellence. Alignment begins with a system that can combine the vision and strategy for the future, with the tactical execution of such requirements and ultimately the implementation, training, and use of those new systems.

Substantial frustrations, delays, and challenges managing many systems that each function within one element of the operational life cycle of the Public Sector (Federal, State, and Local) Transportation Agencies can be avoided by unifying many of the most common information, content, and knowledge related tasks into a single system, Iternal’s software.

Using Iternal’s software Public Sector (Federal, State, and Local) Transportation Agencies can develop a common framework and series of templates that manage the requirements associated with the development of new technologies and then apply and reuse those same structures across multiple different programs and scenarios. Additionally Public Sector (Federal, State, and Local) Transportation Agencies would benefit from managing such requirements in the same system that will also be used to ultimately deliver the training and education materials for how to use a given technology to the Transportation Officers. Having easy access to requirements information, design research, and other technology decisions will streamline and improve pace of innovation by eliminating data silos and artificial barriers to information.

  • IdeaBlock Modular Components reside in a data hierarchy. This allows the information to be reused when needed while also allowing flexibility. Such change would not impact any other modular component in the hierarchy – maximizing reusability.
  • Establish an inheritance based framework for structured and unstructured data organization that drastically eliminates duplicate and redundant content by a factor of approx. 3x depending on the use case;
  • Iternal’s software programmatically builds all major media formats using AI, Automation, and Templates and therefore can complete work much faster than a human, accelerating the ability to produce highly complex media formats such as videos, reports, audio / podcasts, graphic designed brochures, and other forms of media.
  • Apply a common structure to unstructured data for easy ingestion, review, analysis, categorization, and re-use;
  • Templatization allows for the standardization of output to a specific form and structure and maps that structure to IdeaBlock Modular Components.
  • Templates which are fed from IdeaBlocks benefit from the flexibility of where that data comes from, API, Internally Stored Data, External Databases,
  • Custom Input Form, etc. This dramatically accelerates the ability to produce compliant outputs in a variety of media formats.
  • IdeaBlock Modular Components leverage an advanced tagging system that allows for all phases of work to be captured in a single system regardless of media format, this allows colleagues to be able to access the work that has already been completed in support of their phase of work. For example, a design research brief may be used to inform engineering decisions, and engineering documentation may be used to inform end-user training. Instead of having to email colleagues and asking for the information, everything is accessible to authorized personnel in a single system, removing barriers and accelerating progress.
  • Connect multiple systems into a common foundation of Iternal’s software using the media format agnostic Iternal’s software API which allows for the storage of media in all major formats, and provides structured to unstructured data in a way that can allow for focused curation of data.
    Streamline and accelerate the approval processes associated with sharing of information because the data can be easily segmented and analyzed with rich metadata;
  • Track and validate policy and regulatory, or memoranda of understanding compliance, for all information exchanged through the system;
    Simplify the integration of downstream systems with data sets by establishing Iternal’s software as the common framework for all data structuring
  • (allowing Iternal’s software to function as a aggregator, curator, categorizer, organizer, and data clean-up system before data is sent to the downstream system);
  • Leverage an existing system input and output agnostic platform (Iternal’s software) to easily pipe in key data set information to be curated, de-duplicated, validated, reviewed, and analyzed before being sent off and re-used in other systems.
  • Accelerate approvals, changes, updates, and other modifications to constantly evolving content in the applicable foreign language;

DESIGNED FOR GOVERNMENT AGENCIES

Public sector organizations face unique challenges to accomplish complex missions with limited resources. Public sector leaders engaged in transformation embrace Iternal Technologies’ solutions when they want to serve, support, and communicate with citizens more effectively, achieve higher academic standards, and effectively achieve strategic mission objectives.

NEXT GENERATION AGENCY FUSION

Iternal’s software platform transforms Government Agencies (Federal, State, Local) and Education (Higher Ed, K-12) by automating the curation, assembly, and production, of key accurate, up-to-date, and compliant information, content, knowledge, date, and subject matter expertise, across all foreign languages.

ITERNAL IDEA MEDIA FORMAT CAPABILITIES

SECURITY BUILT FOR SCALE™

Security has been a fundamental priority from day one. Hosted on AWS GovCloud or on premises using AWS Outpost, our technology was designed using industry leading architecture and security principals to ensure your most valuable information is safe and secure, and the security was built for scale.

Why use Iternal for your Agency’s Digital Transformation?

Instant Information, Content, Knowledge, and Data Control

Iternal’s patented software can near-instantly generate any major file format with the click of a single button and enables organizations to more effectively create, collaborate, organize, update and share content across all media major types — text, slides, audio, and video. In minutes, Government Agencies can rapidly build highly tailored videos, slide decks, proposals, webinars, podcasts, and other forms of media to reach users and Government personnel across a variety of use cases.

Highly Scalable APIs

Through a set of easy to integrate Application Program Interfaces (APIs) Iternal’s software can communicate with other existing technology systems to send and receive information and deliver content to other systems when and where it is needed. APIs are flexible/agnostic for both data input and output in all major media formats (text, slides, audio, video, images, etc).

Rapid Response Changes

Iternal’s software allows any organization to create weekly, daily, or even hourly changes to your messages at a global level and have updates propagate out instantaneously to all systems. One of the key advances of Iternal’s software is the system’s ability to manage Modular Components® of information, content, and knowledge (also known as “IdeaBlocks®”) in any major media format. The modularity of IdeaBlocks enables for substantial advances in reusability, lifecycle management, and elimination of substantial information duplication and redundancy.

Easy to Use

Simplicity is a core focus, and demonstrated by the average ramp-up speed for daily users being as short as a 10 minute online training video. More robust training is available to project or program managers via a Video On-demand 4 hour end-to-end comprehensive training course.

Supports 508 Compliant Communications

Iternal recognizes the importance of Section 508 Standards for Citizen communications. Iternal’s software can support Government Agencies in the delivery of 508 compliant communications via materials in various media types including visual and audio which meets or exceed the digital accessibility requirements outlined in Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. §794d), and the United States Access Board’s Revised Section 508 Standards.
