It allows the providers to invoice CDD, tracks CDD funding budgets, and generates reports. It is the main repository for annual contract information on more than 140 providers, 550 contracts and nearly 3,500 invoices. It also downloads data to be imported into the City's MUNIS system for paying contract expenses.
Parthenon Globalsystems LLC has held a contract for support and maintenance of the Provider Gateway system since May 3, 2010, first with Mid-America America Consulting Group, which underwent a name change to Parthenon Globalsystems LLC, for the ProviderGateway-CSM, Version 4.0. The original agreements included both the base license for Provider Gateway software and modifications, and all interface(s) between the software and the Tyler MUNIS system and ongoing monitoring, updates and support. CDD staff and contracted providers rely on this system for communication and information.
