Wyoming Board Excited About New System from GL Solutions

Bend, OR, October 30, 2011 --(PR.com)-- GL Solutions today announced the signing of a new agreement with the Wyoming Board of Cosmetology (WYBOC). This State Board ensures the public health, welfare and safety of the citizens of Wyoming through education and enforcement of the laws and rules by regulation of salons, schools and individuals who practice cosmetology.

With only two full time employees and two field inspectors, this state agency is tasked with inspecting over 1,500 independent contractors, salons, and beauty schools across Wyoming every year. They are also responsible for licensure and enforcement of over 5000 cosmetologists, hair stylists nail technicians, estheticians.

WYBOC had been operating their regulatory processes using four different databases. The main database housed all of their personal licenses for salons and schools, but student information was stored separately. In order to check on the status of current licenses, staff had to switch between the four systems introducing the possibility of making mistakes and missing important information.

GL Suite™, GL Solutions’ commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software, is tailored for each individual government regulatory agency to productivity and effectiveness. By leveraging GL Suite’s high configurability and flexibility, GL Solutions will tailor the application to support WYBOC’s licensing, permitting, credentialing, registration, continuing education and enforcement processes with real time updates, including on-line licensing and renewals, to meet their current and future needs.

GL Solutions is excited to help WYBOC streamline their data management, inspection, compliance and licensure processes all into a single, web-based system. WYBOC’s new database system will enable the board to track the complete lifecycle of a licensee – from day one of a student’s enrollment in cosmetology school as well as throughout their licensing history.

“I’m looking at our new GL Suite system as being a huge time saver,” said Betty Abernethy, Executive Director for WYBOC. “If I can put in an individual’s name and access all of the information for that person in one place, I will be able to accurately track their compliance, complaints, violations, and any history of disciplinary action.”

GL Solutions’ undivided attention to the needs of government has resulted in a software program offering rich, built-in functionality within a framework that may be adjusted to the most specialized business processes. GL Suite™ provides a comprehensive database system ideal for managing licensure and certification activities, including data entry, workflow, investigations, reporting and online verifications.

GL Solutions stands apart in the industry with the ability to meet all desired functionality at an affordable price, in a time frame that meets even the tightest schedules. Founded by former licensing regulators, GL Solutions serves more than sixty clients in nineteen states.
