The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania announces the launch of the new website dedicated to the Enterprise Licensing System (ELS) project.
The ELS is a multi-agency licensing and incident management system designed to replace and modernize the various licensing, permitting, registration, certification and incident management related systems currently used by four agencies:
- Department of Human Services (DHS),
- Department of Health (DOH),
- Department of Aging (PDA), and
- Department of Drug & Alcohol Programs (DDAP).
The ELS will be rolled out by Commonwealth Program offices over the next two years.
Stakeholders in impacted program areas will be notified when
OCDEL is scheduled for rollout, ensuring they have ample time to prepare.
ELS will enable staff to manage and process licensing, permitting, registration, certification and related inspection or survey activities from initial application through issuance, as well as offer extensive reporting capabilities. Additionally, the ELS will be used to record, review, investigate, and analyze incidents and complaints.
The outcomes of this project will:
- increase collaboration and communication across agencies,
- improve scheduling of licensing, permitting, registration/certification inspections, surveys and timely issuance of licenses/permits/registrations/certifications and renewals,
- streamline business processes, including electronic sharing and storing of documents and pre-populated forms and templates, and
- reduce maintenance and operations costs from multiple systems to one system.
The ELS will provide a standardized enterprise-wide solution that is configurable and can also provide a limited degree of configurability by each agency to meet their specific needs.
Whether you are a Commonwealth employee, provider, stakeholder group, or those served, the new website will serve as a comprehensive resource, delivering informative, engaging, and user-friendly content to keep you informed throughout the transition to ELS.
