Custom Line-of-Business Application Streamlines Florida Legislative Workflow
Overview The Florida House of Representatives has used Leagis, a custom system, to create, process, and track legislation. The custom Engrossing and Enrolling application within Leagis integrates closely with Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003, but the task of amending bills still required legislative staff to locate and open separate Microsoft Office Word 2003 documents for every bill and every amendment to a bill. A pilot project using the 2007 Microsoft Office system allowed Florida House IT staff to provide a remedy. Using the new Microsoft Office Open XML file formats, the updated application lists all bill amendments in a custom task pane that allows staff to incorporate amendment text into a bill with just a few clicks in the user interface.
