KENTUCKY REVENUE CABINET SELECTS CBSI TO DEVELOP TAX DECISION
SUPPORT SYSTEM
FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich.- May 30, 2000, Complete Business
Solutions, Inc., (NASDAQ:CBSI) announced today that the Kentucky
Revenue Cabinet has selected the company to develop and implement
their Revenue Evaluation and Decision Support (READS) System.
When complete, the READS System will help increase efficiency
of the tax collection function, including support, analysis and
revenue generation. CBSI has already started the analysis and design
phase for the project, which should be completed in the fourth
quarter of this year.
"The new system will use tax-specific decision support applications,
data warehousing and web- enabled technologies to access information
quickly and easily," said Bryce Haws, CBSI Regional Vice President. "It
will provide tremendous cost advantages and efficient reporting
and strategic decision support systems for the Kentucky Revenue
Cabinet."
"This win strategically positions CBSI in the Revenue space," said
Shelley Mills-Brinkley CBSI Vice President in CBSI's Health and
Human Services Practice. "Revenue agencies for other states have
begun to understand and analyze decision support systems like
this to help them generate more revenue."
"We are pleased to announce our partnership with CBSI on the READS
project," said Mike Haydon, Kentucky Revenue Cabinet Secretary. "It
is directly in line with our 'Empower Kentucky' initiative that
streamlines business procedures to more efficiently serve our
taxpayers."
In May of 1999, the Commonwealth of Kentucky selected CBSI as
one of its Strategic Alliance Service (SAS) Partners, a program
established to increase the efficiency and delivery of information
technology project life cycle services. Most recently, CBSI was
awarded a major project from Kentucky's Transportation Cabinet
to develop a comprehensive web-based vehicle registration and titling
system.
For over ten years, CBSI has provided public sector solutions
for more than 20 states in the areas of health and human services,
transportation, public retirement systems and now tax and revenue
systems.
