GL Solutions announce another major client – the Arizona State Board of Cosmetology. This board is the latest in a series of state regulatory agencies to choose GL Solutions as their new software vendor and service provider for managing their licensing and enforcement processes.
The Board of Cosmetology and other recent sales successes will cause GL Solutions to hire ten new positions in customer service, project management and software configuration.“GL Solutions’ continued market and employment growth is good for our clients and for Central Oregon’s economy. GL Solutions proudly pumps about $5 million a year into the local economy through salaries for area residents,” said Bill Moseley, CEO of GL Solutions.
The Arizona State Board of Cosmetology, mandated to protect the public, issues 12 categories of licenses to individuals who qualify by reciprocity or through the Board’s administration of a written and practical examination; to salons; and to schools. The Board enforces regulation by inspections, by investigation of consumer complaints, and conducts hearings and imposes enforcement action when appropriate.
While procurement in government and implementation of software are not usually pleasant and successful experiences, GL Solutions simplifies both, setting the stage for long-term partnerships with clients.
“GL Solutions has been professional and made the process as easy as possible”– Donna Aune, executive director, Arizona Board of Cosmetology
GL Solutions won nine new state contracts in 2013, is now in 70 agencies and 19 states, is at the winning end of the procurement process with many others, and is on track for a strong 2014. Continued staff growth is expected throughout the year.
GL Solutions develops, licenses, and configures its software, GL Suite, for regulatory government agencies. Procurement of the software is handled through various channels, including traditional software procurement processes, state-approved purchasing channels, and increasingly, through the SaaS (Software as a Service) GL Simple installation model.
GL Simple is an all-inclusive support service designed with, and for, GL Solutions’ clients, and chosen by the vast majority of clients due to the inclusion of ongoing enhancements. When the GL Simple installation model is selected, it provides a free and quick replacement of existing agency functionality, with a premium support plan to provide an unending stream of support and enhancements in the months and years after going live.
GL Solutions’ clients who choose GL Simple as either their procurement model or as their support model after a traditional procurement find they are able to better envision and order enhancements to keep pace with their ever-changing needs and new legislative mandates.
GL Solutions has provided state government agencies with regulatory software since 1997, delivering the perfect blend of software, solutions and support.
