Description: The system was developed by NTR Lab to support information interoperability between Moscow’s city government and its Federal Tax Service. The system

• automates the reception of preliminary documents for tax revenues of the Economic Politics and Development Department;
• processes the data and posts it as an information resource on the intranet;
• creates and maintains an operating database of primary tax revenue information; and
• analyzes tax revenues in the city budget.

Special system features include

• template creation that enable users to build and modify various sets of required documents without updating software or changing the database scheme; and
• reference data that can be edited (addition and modification of classifiers, dictionaries and other reference materials).

The task
Develop a subsystem for automating management of dedicated budget funds and budget recepients

Solution: A system to automate procurement planning for Moscow’s chief budget administrators and direct budgetary funds recipients.

The goal was a system for efficient information collection, indexing and summarizing in order to plan municipal procurement based on the corresponding resolutions of the Moscow city government; the design allowed for changes in the underlying processes and standards (reference materials and classifiers).

The project adheres to strict fault-tolerance requirements and includes system design, implementation, staff training, hotline consultations and system maintenance.

The system

• updates and modifies electronic reference data;
• collects budgetary requests from subordinate organizations;
• allows entering the account data in both automated and manual modes;
• recalculates, totals and rounds the data automatically; and
• automatically processes it in the given formats.

The work with electronic documents is based on .NTR technology.

The task
Develop an automated system for use by the treasurer, executive, senior and other-level budget administrators and budget recipients of various financial departments in the Moscow City Government.
Description:
Electronic documents are formed using templates that include a full description of the document (printing and screen, export, field verifications rules). Templates enable the introduction of additional documents into the process without installing new versions of the software.
The module also enables:

• Manual adding of documents participating in information exchange internally and with related information systems of the system;
• Control accuracy of the information entered based on service documents;
• Exchanging electronic documents:
  • Internally, between modules of the system; and
  • related information systems;
• Cryptographic protection of the data exchanged within the system;
• remote administration of the module including updating software versions and service documents;
• create, uploade and delete templates
• create document printing forms
• import data dictionaries
