Milk License
Making milk dealer licensing more efficient, while creating greater transparency for compliance enforcement.
Challenge
Departments of agriculture and food safety struggle to ensure that thousands of companies are licensed and in compliance with milk handling laws using manual processes.
Solution
SimpliGov allows agencies to:
- Deliver a seamless, end-to-end self-service process for registering and paying for new licenses and renewals, including support for traditional paper check payment options
- Automate the review and approval of new license applications
- Levy penalties, handle appeals, and collect fine payments remotely
- Customize review processes for different violations (e.g., delinquent payments, supplier hazards, antitrust pricing)
- Issue multiple violations under a single user ID without recreating the wheel
- Automatically calculate fees based on milk volume (e.g., quarts, gallons, etc.), company size, percentage of revenue, or other variable
- Create multiple accounts under each business ID and grant self-service privileges (e.g., view information and status around licenses and violations, update business information, and print licenses) to authorized users
- Customize approval processes for different business types (franchises, LLCs, sole proprietors, etc.)
