A robust Vote-by-Mail module that provides a comprehensive ballot audit trail for all Issued, Received, Returned and Challenged ballots. Outreach to voters with challenged ballot envelopes via letter, calling, emailing can be automated and tracked. Supports county customized workflow statuses, Issue/Return locations, UOCAVA and other participating program voters for mass ballot Issuance. Plus the module supports integration with ALL Mail Processing and Ballot On Demand vendors including envelope/signature image viewing.
Highly customized Imaging interface application developed in-house that stores images directly into the Microsoft SQL Server database for easy retrieval and management. Numerous signature and registration images can be stored for a single voter, and any number of Supporting Document images can be stored.
Customized Address Parser provides immediate automated Precinct assignment during data entry and maintenance activities. Our unique database structure provides automatic re-precincting on precinct boundary changes, precinct splits, and precinct joins. EIMS® will ensure that major district lines are not crossed, that precincts are not assigned to more than one type of district, and can even report on precincts missing a specific district type. GIS data import/exports are available for sharing and sychronizing street data between the Elections Division and County GIS systems.
Our Election Workspace Module allows the processing of multiple elections at once without interference. The Election Workspace automates the process of Contest Drafting, Ballot Typing (ballot styles), precinct consolidation and ballot order functions.
Statewide Voter Registration database integration is virtually transparent to the User. Fast, immediate and non-intrusive to the User experience during daily voter registration tasks, we have worked hard to make statewide integration easy and accurate. We value our partnerships with state voter registration teams!
Our unique presentation of complex election data makes learning and using EIMS® fast and fun. All screens are consistent in operation making training easier.
World-class support that provides users with immediate access to DFM Associates application support team.
