County moving forward to modernize business systems
The King County Council voted Monday, Oct. 20, to move forward with the Accountable Business Transformation (ABT) Program. ABT will move King County to use of contemporary, countywide business practices and an integrated finance, human resources and budget system.
The ABT Program will enhance the county’s ability to provide services to customers, make county government more efficient by reducing duplication of work and increasing information access. The ABT program will see a savings of 2.7 to 3.3 times the total amount spent on the system.
It is scheduled to be completed in early 2012.
