Oklahoma Department of Public Safety

The Oklahoma Department of Public Safety is a multi-service law enforcement agency protecting Oklahoma residents, staffed by 750 commissioned officers and 450 civilian employees statewide.

Challenge

An outdated database left the Department a full year and more than 4,500 reports behind on the periodical medical reports required for driving privileges.

Results

A five-month migration to OnBase cleared the backlog, lifted daily report completion from 10 to 45, and brought documentation to roughly 80 percent paperless.

Paperless documentation reached

Overview

Oklahoma DPS relied on an outdated, simple database to manage medical standards documentation required for driving privileges, falling a full year and over 4,500 reports behind on periodical medical report processing. Already engaged with DataBank under state contract SW1013, the Department migrated quickly to OnBase, modernizing document storage and processing while enabling multiple staff members to access records simultaneously and work more efficiently.

Challenges

Legacy database lacked capacity for growing volumes of driving review and healthcare documentation

Department was a full year and over 4,500 reports behind on medical report processing

State licensing protocols required better, more reliable documentation to support constituent needs

Implementation

Leverage Existing State Contract

DataBank was already engaged under state contract SW1013, so the Department moved into implementation without a lengthy procurement process.

Migrate to OnBase Platform

DataBank migrated the Department’s medical standards documentation from a simple legacy database into OnBase for digital storage and processing.

Enable Multi-User Access

The new system let multiple department members access documents simultaneously, consolidating documentation locations and increasing efficiency.

Complete Project in Five Months

DataBank planned, implemented, and finalized the project in five months, with every deadline met along the way.

Key Takeaways

An existing state contract turned a year-long backlog into a five-month project and nearly quadrupled what the Department clears in a day.

Backlog Cleared

More than 4,500 reports brought current after a year-long backlog

Throughput Quadrupled

Average daily report completion rose from 10 to 45

One Place To Look

Documentation consolidated from three locations into one

Contract As Accelerator

State contract SW1013 kept procurement off the critical path

Results

Eliminated a backlog of over 4,500 periodical medical reports
Increased average daily report completion from 10 to 45
Reduced documentation locations from three down to one
Reached approximately 80 percent paperless documentation

Client Experience

“DataBank was great. They took every thought of mine and made suggestions to continue making the project better. They asked, ‘Have you thought about doing it this way?’ They were helpful and constructive. When they said they would deliver, they delivered. Every deadline was hit. It was a fantastic experience.”
