Governor’s Letter

As Governor since 2007, I have worked continually to make state government more accessible to Arkansans and more effi cient in its delivery of services. Over the past year, the state’s offi cial website introduced 93 new eGovernment online services and websites. Th ese allow citizens to search for information and resources more easily, whether online or via mobile smartphones.

Government agencies, which have a digital presence through Web and mobile off erings, provide government transparency, information sharing, and convenience via online services for citizens. Th e Information Network of Arkansas (INA) continues to deliver state and local government in formats that keep citizens connected. State agencies have also included social-media tools, including Facebook and Twitter, to maximize off erings and eff ectively engage the public. Th e state portal, Arkansas.gov,combines all relevant social-media streams into one view for the public, and creates an easy point-of-access for developments in state government.

Arkansas has become a national leader in using technology to make government more responsive, and it will be exciting to see where we are headed in the future. In 2011, the state’s website was named the best state government site in the nation, receiving a fi rst-place ranking by the Center for Digital Government. Th is research institute has ranked Arkansas.gov in the top-ten state websites for each of the past fi ve years.

We are grateful to receive this recognition, and my administration will continue working to improve the information and services the state provides online. As technology continues its rapid development, Arkansas will strive to remaina national leader in serving our citizens with these new technologies. I believe we have created the most effi cient and innovative Web portal to meet the needs of Arkansans, and we look forward to providing an ever-more accessible and user-friendly state government.

Sincerely,

Mike Beebe

INA Board Chair Letter

Information Network of Arkansas had quite a few

success stories in 2011. Arkansas.gov introduced a major

redesigned fully mobile-ready website which included a

smart search, Text4help, and geolocation services. ACIC

launched the new online Centralized Electronic Network

of Sex Off ender Registries (CENSOR) which will save the

state approximately $55,000 by eliminating the notices sent

to off enders via certifi ed mail every six months.

“YOUniversal” Financial Aid System saw an application increase of 441% over the

previous year with the addition of the mobile version and increased Financial Aid

availability just to name a few. In addition, INA designed/developed and launched

93 new online services and websites for the State of Arkansas.

2011 was a year of accolades for Arkansas.gov and the state. Th e Center for

Digital Government ranked the portal site, Arkansas.gov, Best of Web for 2011.

Mobile Arkansas.gov and Online Services Suite also won a Center for Digital

Government Achievement award in the Government-to-Citizen category as well

as earned a National Association of State Chief Information Offi cers (NASCIO)

fi nalist award. And last, but not least, “YOUniversal” Mobile Application won the

Center for Digital Education Achievement Award.

INA has proven to be a leader in the industry and I am sure it will be interesting

to see what INA produces in 2012.

It is my privilege to serve as the INA Board Chair and on behalf of the

INA Board members we sincerely hope you fi nd the annual report a useful

reference for Arkansas state government services and that it provides some

potential solutions for your organization as well.

Sincerely,

Ann Purvis

The Information Network of Arkansas (INA) Board was created in 1995 and operatesunder the authority of Arkansas code 25-27-101 et. seq. with the statutory responsibilityof assisting the state in exploring and improving citizen and business access to publicinformation and services. INA is a State Governing Board that consists of individuals fromboth the public and private sector that represent different communities of interest.

The objective of INA is to improve the accessibility of Government in the form of publicinformation or electronic transactions. These transactions may be between Citizens andGovernment, Businesses and Government or between Governmental Agencies andoffices. INA manages the State’s web portal www.Arkansas.gov and provides secureonline payment processing through Arkansas GovPay, the State’s payment portal.

Operating under a self-funded model, the INA network, its infrastructure, employees,office space and equipment are fully funded through portal convenience/transaction feesassociated with information requiring limited access by statute and electronic filings thatrequire a fee. The State does not appropriate any funds for this network. State servicesthat do not have a fee remain free to businesses and citizens. State and local agenciesdo not pay for the development or hosting of the online services. If agencies needexpedited development services, INA may charge rates consistent with state publishedrates for each biennium.

In 2011, INA developed 93 new services and websites for the citizens and businessesof Arkansas and processed more than $2.25 billion in transactions for state and localagencies.

The Information Network of Arkansas provides non-partisan support for more than 270government agencies, boards, and commissions and has created over 890 onlineservices at no cost to the agencies or using state appropriated funds. The Arkansas.govwebsite was named “Best of Web” in state web portals in the nation in 2011. INA continues to bring innovative solutions and creative design to eGovernment in the State of Arkansas.

INA County and Local ServicesThe Information Network of Arkansas continues to work with County offi cials in order to expand their online services throughout the state of Arkansas. In 2011, INA launched 22 new county services.

Website Development: Working in collaboration with Connect Arkansas’s e-Community Strategies program, INA developed fully funded new websites for approved counties across the state. The new websites help create a central location where users can fi nd information on county government, general news and other county specifi c information. Having a county web presence provides new avenues for civic engagement in shaping smart growth within a county’s footprint for the future. Using Content Management System (CMS) technologies, the Arkansas.gov CMS solution provides the standards, compliance, and tools, for counties to have a fi rst class web presence that is easy to maintain and keep current.

This year INA launched the geolocation widget to Arkansas.gov which is designed for inclusion on local and community websites that want to embed code for city, county or state online services “near me” within their own website. Because its geolocated, the widget returns search results based on the user’s location.

Emergency Medical Service (EMS) Payments: A new service launched in 2011, the Emergency Medical Service payment application allows citizens who use this county service to make payment online or over-the-counter using a credit or debit card. Online, citizens can enter their account number along with required information and submit payment to be applied to their existing account. Over-the-counter citizens can now use a debit or credit card where formally the only accepted method of payment was cash or paper check.

Personal Property and Real Estate Tax Payments: The tax services include Online, Telephone Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Over-the-Counter (OTC) and Mobile payment options for citizens. These services allow county residents to pay for their property and real estate taxes with a credit card or e-check. Currently 41 counties offer the ability to pay personal property and real estate taxes using the Arkansas.gov GovPay payment engine. These counties represent almost 75% of the State’s population. www.ar-tax.org

Hot Check Restitution Payments: This service allows defendants the ability to pay their restitution and fee payments online via credit card for hot checks written and prosecuted. Offenders can go online to make restitution and possibly prevent a warrant from being issued for their arrest. INA is currently providing this service to 41 counties in Arkansas. www.arkansas.gov/hotcheck

Statistically becoming the technology of choice by Americans, mobile smartphones are embedded in our daily life connecting us with the world in which we live. INA continues to develop our mobile suite of services delivering state and local government in a format that keeps citizens engaged. In 2011 two new services were added to our mobile offerings suite, Auditor of the State Unclaimed Property search and Arkansas Department of Higher Education YOUniversal Mobile. The Center for Digital Government Achievement awarded Arkansas as winner in the Government-to-Citizen category for Arkansas.gov Mobile and Online Services Suite.

Not only was Arkansas 1st in the nation to offer mobile payments with a smartphone but Arkansas was 1st in the nation to offer Text4help which is a customer service support function using text messaging technology.

Serving Arkansans on the go, the mobile payment applications take advantage of the same GovPay payment processing engine as the online solution providing a convenient, simple and secure option for users to access government services which are available on all smartphone operating platforms, including Apple iOS, Rim Blackberry, Android, and Windows Phone.

Below is a listing and description of the mobile services available and can be found on your mobile device at www.arkansas.gov/m.

Centralized Electronic Network for Sex Off ender Registries System (CENSOR)

The registration of sex offenders and the ongoing management of their information have been signifi cantly improved in comparison to formerly used paper-based processing methods with the launch of the online Centralized Electronic Network for Sex Offender Registries System (CENSOR) in March 2011. CENSOR, which contains data records on over 11,720 sex offenders in Arkansas, not only provides more effi ciency for the Arkansas Crime Information Center (ACIC), local law enforcement and the Arkansas Department of Correction (ADC) but it also allows more timely information about these sex offenders to be communicated to citizens.

Through a collaborative effort between offi cials at the ACIC, the ADC and local law enforcement to streamline the registration and verifi cation processes, local law enforcement offi cials now utilize this unique application to reduce the time it takes to update the statewide sex offender registry system at ACIC and ensure the ADC has current sex offender data available for assessments. Offi cers can also conduct the sex offenders’ scheduled verifi cations and update their information through the online system.

“This new system gives us a sex-offender registration process that is faster and safer, and saves our taxpayers money,” Governor Mike Beebe said. “Along with notifying the public sooner, the system also increases accountability for offenders, giving law-enforcement agencies more confi dence in tracking those who are living in their communities.”

This one of a kind system seamlessly integrates with a web camera to capture current photos of sex offenders and electronically transfer the images to the statewide sex offender registry at ACIC. Offi cial registration and acknowledgement documents are automatically generated and are able to be signed by the offender and the registration offi cial on an electronic signature pad. All information, including photos, is saved securely into the ACIC imaging system. That ADC offi cials regularly receive updated data fi les through the CENSOR system allows these users to start the sex offender assessment process immediately.

The development of the CENSOR system was enabled by new legislation that allowed ACIC to mandate electronic sex offender registration, which alleviated the state’s responsibility to continue sending certifi ed letters. As a result of this change, the state has realized savings of $55,000 annually that includes a reduction in the manual processing of the Verifi cation of Residency forms. Since the launch of the CENSOR system in March 2011, 515 users from ACIC, ADC and law enforcement have registered for the system across the state. These users submitted a combination of over 9,800 registrations, verifi cations and other allowed administrative changes.

Arkansas Department of Higher Education The “YOUniversal” Financial Aid System was developed to help students determine which scholarships they may be eligible for and to streamline the application process. The system consolidates 21 programs from different governmental agencies into one unifi ed database and then applies a rules engine that takes basic information from the student or parents and returns a list of scholarships for which they may qualify.

The result is an easy to use tool that walks Arkansas students, parents and counselors through a series of questions to fi nd and apply for available scholarship funds within one application. The agency sees signifi cant savings in staff administrative work as the system has automated many of the manual functions that were previously being performed to join information from disparate systems.

The system automatically integrates processes and information from the Federal Government FASFA application process, Arkansas Department of Education TRIAND data for student transcripts, and Higher Education Institutions for student enrollment verifi cation and fi nancial aid awards. Students manage their profi le and can review the award process in the system throughout their higher education experience.

Because many of Arkansas’s students use smartphones or other mobile devices, creating access from a mobile device was key to this programs success. A mobile version of the site was created along with apps in the Apple, Android and Windows 7 stores. The YOUniversal mobile system includes several innovative features. Integration with Facebook, Twitter and the nation’s fi rst state government SMS Text4help service allows students to text their questions and receive answers via text message, keeping them on the mobile application.

Arkansas.gov Portal

The Arkansas.gov new design is a vehicle for bringing Arkansas E-Government to the forefront by becoming the fi rst state government to use groundbreaking technology, delivering state agency information quickly, and effectively through the latest electronic devices for citizens of every generation that utilize state services.

The nation’s fi rst state government mobile payment services were created by the Arkansas.gov portal. Mobile payment services were designed to cater to Arkansans on the move. Citizens from 32 counties have the ability to complete mobile property tax payments. Tax payments, traffi c and court fi nes, utility payments, and business licensing cover almost 92% of the state’s 2.9 million residents. Approximately $2.5 billon eGov transactions are processed yearly. This year mobile transactions for the portal increased approximately 16 percent. This increase solidifi es INA’s initiative to be the leader for implementing new technologies in the government sector. Text4help and the YOUniversal Financial Aid Scholarship System are two examples of unique mobile systems that are supported via text messaging technology. Users can quickly and effectively communicate with technical support representatives by sending and receiving information using only text messages.

Monthly there are approximately 178,745 portal visitors that benefi t from our user centric smart searches that quickly locate information for county, state agency, and the local community. The portal displays the State’s public meeting calendar that lists state agency public meetings, provides links to relevant meeting documents, and offers location mapping. The eGovernment services section offers a geolocation widget that embeds code for eGovernment services and pushes them to community websites; showing where the services are in proximity to the user. This widget assists local entities in better serving the needs of their citizens.

The portal combines convenience and improved accessibility by seamlessly readjusting the size of the mobile website to match the screen of many electronic mobile devices from the iPad to the Android device. Podcast, eNewsroom, the latest road conditions, and portal Alerts can all be accessed via smart devices. From Amber Alert notifi cations to property tax payments the Arkansas.gov portal redesign encompasses just about everything the average Arkansan would want to access from their government.

Security

Information and Payment Processing Security The Information Network of Arkansas takes its responsibility as the state board providing e-government services in Arkansas very seriously. INA recognizes that not only should there be a focus on the government more effi ciently conducting its business, but also on the citizens being assured that all possible efforts are being made to ensure that their information is used solely for the purposes they intended.

Portal Information Security Employees, project requirements, development practices and infrastructure hosting services must meet rigorous security standards to protect our state and local government partners. A security review is required and conducted on all new and modifi ed software code before being released to the public and adheres to strict privacy guidelines. The portal also has regular communications with a dedicated security team that provides information on new and upcoming security risks.

Payment Security As the payment processor for the State of Arkansas, INA complies with the Payment Card Industry/Data Security Standard (PCI/DSS). PCI/DSS contains more than 60 specifi c requirements for ensuring the integrity and confi dentiality of payment information submitted. INA conducts a full re-assessment of its compliance with PCI/DSS annually and receives quarterly scans from an approved scanning vendor. In 2011, INA securely processed over 4.2 million transactions for the State of Arkansas. These transactions accounted for over $2.5 billion through the portal’s payment processor.

In addition to compliance with PCI/DSS, INA holds additional security certifi cations. The INA partnership with Arkansas State Police and the Arkansas Crime Information Center mandates that INA comply with the FBI’s Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) security policy. INA also undergoes an enterprise-wide security assessment as part of the Verizon Business/CyberTrust Security Management Program (SMP).

Financial Data Assurance To ensure the integrity of all fi nancial systems and transactions INA participated in an annual SSAE16 Assessment. The assessment, conducted by a third party accounting fi rm, ensures that all of INA’s fi nancials systems are confi gured to ensure that fi nancial transactions and disbursements are accurate, follow industry best practices in terms of reconciliation, and fi nancial data security.
