CrimsonLogic Chosen to Deliver a New Integrated Business Licensing System
SINGAPORE, November 21, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
CrimsonLogic, a leading global eGovernment solutions provider, announced
its recent win of the project from the Singapore Government to develop a new
integrated multi-agency business licensing system. The new system will
replace the country's existing Online Business Licensing Service (OBLS) and
revolutionise the way businesses in Singapore get their licences. It is
expected to go 'live' and replace OBLS by end of 2013.
The new integrated business licensing system will serve as a one-stop
service portal for licence, compliance and portfolio management in the
business licensing application process. With this new implementation, the
system will integrate more than 250 different business licences from 18
government ministries and agencies. The agencies include the Ministry of
Education (MOE), the Ministry of Law (MINLAW), the Ministry of Manpower
(MOM), the Agri-Food & Veterinary Authority of Singapore (AVA), the Health
Sciences Authority (HSA), and the National Environment Agency (NEA). To a
business owner, he or she will have greater accessibility to multiple
agencies and spend less time engaging individual organisations separately
for licensing needs. The new system will also ensure a streamlined and
consistent overall user experience for the Singapore business community.
Government agencies can easily implement changes required in the
system's business licensing engine, as a result of policy changes. The new
system can also facilitate the implementation of multi-agency changes
quickly and consistently to expedite decision-making on licence
applications. In a scenario where a policy change affects more than one
agency, the new system will allow them to operationalise the change in a
fast and coordinated way. This helps ensure that policy changes take effect
in the system in a timely manner, while reducing uncertainties and
misinformation to users.
The platform leverages on a virtualised infrastructure that is more
robust, energy efficient and lowers capital expenditure investment on
hardware, and yet is still flexible enough to accommodate new participating
government agencies and licence types.
"This year the World Bank has once again ranked Singapore as the easiest
place to do business. We are elated to play a key part in further
strengthening Singapore's leadership position in this area," says Leong Peng
Kiong, CEO of CrimsonLogic Pte Ltd. "It is critical that investors are made
to feel welcome in Singapore's business environment, as entrepreneurs and
small business owners can obtain the right information and complete the
necessary statutory processes quickly.
"With the centralisation of automated rules that are set by the various
government agencies, the approval processes of licence applications will be
faster and more streamlined. Consequently, this next generation system will
elevate the ease of doing business in Singapore, making the country even
more competitive and attractive as a business hub globally."
