The Nebraska Brand Committee (NBC) received approval from the
Nebraska State Board of Records for the development of a complete
end-to-end software solution that will revolutionize the industry.
Incorporating this innovation, never done before in the state, will
exponentially improve efficiencies within the committee which is
still using a paper process. The solution will include the ability
to collect fees online, record cattle metrics and track brand
inspections.
“To receive unanimous approval by the Board of Records was a
testament of not only the work that this committee has undertaken,
but what this application will provide in terms of transparency,
audit reporting, budgeting, accountability and customer service.
This allows the Nebraska Brand Committee to run as an effective
business. Partnering with the state and Nebraska Interactive makes
this all possible,” said John Widdowson, Chair of the Nebraska
Brand Committee’s Technology Working Group.
The solution will provide brand inspectors the ability to input
their data in a tablet and producers can pay their fees instantly,
or opt to pay later online. The field data will synch with the data
base in real time depending on internet connectivity. Data input by
hand is no longer needed thus creating an efficient flow of
information where it needs to be, when it needs to be there.
“Nebraska is a beef production leader in our country. We are
ecstatic to tackle this project which will increase efficiencies in
such an important area of our state’s economy. Accessing and
syncing data in the field using our latest innovation is one way we
serve Nebraskan businesses best. We are excited to get into
development,” said Brent Hoffman, President of Nebraska
Interactive.
