iMIS Legislative Tracking is an extensive detail-tracking system for all types of legislative bills, including Senate, House, State, and Local. Its capabilities offer powerful support to your legislative affairs staffer, from making it possible to find out which companies are in a legislator’s district to analyzing the effect of pending legislation on your industry.
iMIS Legislative Tracking is the first entry in a suite of Government Relations packages. The system facilitates the tracking of important bills and the communication of significant bill information to key contacts. This system is a powerful notetaking tool to allow Legislative Affairs staff to capture, analyze, and report information about important pending legislation affecting your industry or profession.
If you do not have the staff available to research and enter information on pertinent bills in a timely manner, you can connect iMIS to an outside service that provides legislative information through a modem hookup. Your reseller can talk with you about the hardware, software, and services required to effectively utilize such a service.
