The new finance app supports Nassau County’s plan to improve
trust in government with transparency, public engagement, and data.
The county is developing a robust financial reporting, internal
data sharing, and open data program to revolutionize the way it
uses data as a strategic asset.
The county’s more than 7,000 employees and 1.4 million residents
can now access transaction details of the county’s expenditures,
including checkbook-level details; payments to vendors across
departments, funds, and expense categories; and spending based on
categories over time.
“Our vision is to create a Nassau County where everyone can
transparently see the county’s finances just like they can with
their own. We are putting the county’s checkbook onto people’s
phones and into their living rooms in an easy-to-understand
format,” said Nassau County Comptroller Jack Schnirman. “Opening up
and modernizing the County’s finances is key to a government that
uses data to find efficiencies and to ask and answer questions.
That’s why we’ve invited residents, students, reporters, and
researchers to join us in looking at this data for opportunities to
improve.”
Over the past year, the county has made strides in developing a
data strategy to improve resource allocation, operational
efficiencies, and economic development. It hosted a Socrata Data
Academy in December to train staff in data analysis to deliver
better services to residents, and the county is in the process of
implementing Socrata Connected Government Cloud (SCGC), an advanced
internal data-sharing platform.
SCGC will serve as a self-service, centralized data repository
for Nassau County employees. The extensible, cloud-based, data
sharing platform, which was built specifically for governments,
streamlines data governance and access across organizations.
Schnirman is a long-time supporter of implementing technological
solutions to enhance government operations. As the city manager in
Long Beach, NY, he implemented a 311-style smartphone application
for residents.
Along with Open Expenditures and SCGC, the county plans to
launch another public-facing portal, Open Payroll. These
cloud-based applications will track performance across the county
and serve as a library for public datasets.
“The first step to building a data-driven government is making
data discoverable, usable, and actionable,” said Kevin Merritt,
president of the Data & Insights Division of Tyler
Technologies. “By approaching problem-solving with the use of data
— whether for resource allocation, staffing, or engaging with the
public — Nassau County is demonstrating impressive leadership in
the government data sphere.”
Nassau County is the sixth largest county in New York. Tyler
also provides its iasWorld® appraisal and tax software, CLT
Appraisal Services™ mass appraisal services, and Brazos™ e-citation
solution to the county.
