About Ministry of the Interior of Colombia & the project
In compliance with the Online Government guidelines and the requirements of the Anti-corruption and Citizen Service, the Administrative Efficiency and Zero Paper Plan, through its public Information Bureau (OIP) the Ministry of the Interior of Colombia has implemented its Religious Affairs application process on the AuraQuantic iBPMS platform.
The Challenge
The issues were those common to the administrative management of paper documents that require multiple actions and involve extensive documentation with many variations and exceptions. The geographical conditions also needed to be taken into consideration. Colombia has an area five times greater than that of Great Britain, extensive mountain ranges, tropical forests and a significant rural population posing further difficulties for administrative proceedings.
The Solution
This project was achieved in less than 3 months, from gathering information and implementation through to production. The stabilization and optimization adjustment phase took 4 months. The platform meets the needs of legal representatives from over 5000 religious entities which, according to the figures estimated by the Interior’s Public Information Bureau (OIPI), agglomerate over 10 million parishioners.
Religious Affairs Case Management
A very complex process that requires the combined execution of six processes and 44 sub-processes. In unison these processes can solve any eventuality.
Task automation
Of the 171 tasks that make up the set of coordinated processes, only 21 are performed by people.
Monitoring, control and analysis of every process
This analysis of each individual procedure and the final analysis of groups of procedures are important for continuous improvement.
Legal representatives from over 5000 religious entities
