GIS Coordinator/IT
I've been with Luna County since 2009, first as a contractor, then as full time employee in 2012. They hired me originally to get their website up and running, but when the State mandated that they move to GIS, I started working on the 911 systems. Now I'm the IT Network Administrator.

Q&A with this municipal champion
When I was 16 I started working for Admission Technologies, a private company that did computer work for agencies from public schools to missile ranges to homeland security, so I have had my feet wet for government. But it wasn't until I actually got hired by the County Manager that I got involved in local government. When I first stepped in, the County website was down, but they were trying to get it up and running. I started off by cleaning up all their files, creating a brand new website, implementing an intranet for employees and then forms, basic website stuff.
I think it was about 4 years ago that I was contacted by you guys. I really wanted to go for your services but the problem was convincing the whole county that it was beneficial. I kept going to them year after year until last year in August I had my performance evaluation and my director said he needed a work order system to be developed, because he can't see when the work orders are being submitted. I took the opportunity to say, "I've been showing you this!" and he said we've got to get it approved by the county. I presented to all the Department Directors and Deputy Chiefs (assessor, clerk). Once I showed them that you can digitize PTO requests, leave requests, overtime forms, and you can log in to see whose request it was, the county manager approved!
In IT, everything's electronic, so for me it's easier to search for something when it's on a hard drive, rather than paper where you don't know where it's filed. Once I digitized certain processes (maintenance work order, IT work order), everyone saw the benefit of less paper: less cost on the county!

The first forms that went up were PTO, comp time, and over time. From there, it was all the HR forms. Right as I was implementing, they hired a County Attorney who gave me a form (Personal Requisition Form) to digitize. The County Attorney really helped initiate some ideas of what we can do. It was pretty easy because creating a form is so intuitive! They give ideas, I create them.
Our IT Work orders – they were coming in via emails, saying what department was requesting. Now, we can keep track of when the work order was submitted, when completed, by whom, what hardware they use. And then you can search and give it to the county's commission. You can report on how many work orders came in, how many were completed, and how many are open and pending.
I like the fact that everything is searchable. The Detention Center used to fill out a word document, then formatting would get out of wack. The form has to go to a supervisor for signature, and then for final review through the Director of the Detention Center, who signs off. When we get audited, they don't have to go through boxes and boxes of paper. There's no need to print, because you can just search online.
Think outside the box for once! Don't think "just this form or that form". You can use it just about for anything. There's online payment integrations, reservation-making capabilities. Just think creatively about how SeamlessDocs can be usable for more that just regular forms!
