Blog Post: From Washington to Silicon Valley: Keeping the Brightest Minds in the US

Maury Blackman — Tue, 08 May 2012 22:04:00 GMT

I recently traveled to Washington D.C. for a few days with the Silicon Valley Leadership Group. This particular group is organized to involve principal officers and senior managers of member companies in a cooperative effort with local, regional, state and federal government officials to address major public policy issues affecting the economic health and quality of life in Silicon Valley and the surrounding areas.

Our DC trip mission was to meet with various members of congress, making them aware of issues that are priorities to the membership and Silicon Valley. The issues are broad-reaching, ranging from tax reform, cyber security, and immigration. This year I was tasked with leading the discussion around immigration policy and how reform around this politically charged topic might occur.

For some background and context, it's important to note that immigration reform is very complex. There are issues around border security, illegal workers, what do to with children of illegal immigrants, health care costs, education costs, amnesty, H1B visa programs and green card issuance. Every president since Reagan has sought a solution—unfortunately, all without success. To me, the reason for this is quite simple: we have always sought broad comprehensive immigration reform rather than tackling issues in meaningful chunks that are digestible.

My own personal story serves as a very good example. I grew up in Houston, Texas and lived there for 30 years. My view of immigration reform was formed by the issues raised by Texas politicians including border security and providing services to illegal immigrants. For example, stories of illegal immigrants crossing the border to facilitate drug trade, crime and kidnapping, in addition to crossing for free healthcare such as child delivery. Why should taxpayers finance this activity when these individuals are not contributing tax dollars?

When I moved to the Bay Area, I quickly learned that immigration reform was central to our ability to hire the best and the brightest minds for hi-tech development. We bring the smartest, most motivated and ingenious people from around the world to the United States, immerse them in our culture, educate them, and send them back home so they can compete with us for global technology leadership. It’s well documented that the people holding advanced technology degrees actually create jobs rather than take jobs. The bottom line is that we need to keep the world’s brightest minds in our country and not send them back home. I actually saw this take place here at Accela when one of our lead engineers was sent to back to the United Kingdom. It was a tough loss not just for Accela, but for our customers as well.

Our elected leaders in Washington need to abandon the dream that comprehensive immigration reform will happen. It won’t. It’s too big, too emotional and too controversial to be able to deal with in one encompassing law. We need to act now and start issuing green cards to everyone who obtains an advanced technical degree in this country. I can tell you that Accela and all companies like us struggle to find strong technical resources.

In my recent travels to DC, I visited 10 senators and not a single one thought the current policy was wise. They claimed they would support green card issuance to anyone who obtained an advanced degree in the U.S. In fact, Senators Jerry Moran (R-KS) and Mark Warner (D-VA) have put a bill forward called the Startup Act. This bill, in many ways, champions this cause. The bill makes it far easier for young entrepreneurs and advanced degree holders to stay in this country. Senator Moran said it best, “One way to help our budget problems is by growing the economy. Keeping the world’s best and brightest in the U.S. just makes too much sense to be ignored."

Blog Post: Calling All Developers: We're 'Open' for Business

Maury Blackman — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 22:14:00 GMT

Some of today's most successful companies have gotten to where they are through open solutions, leading to win-win situations for both themselves and developers. For example, Apple's solutions have allowed developers to build and deploy applications in an open market. Developers get access to a wide install base and distribution channel while Apple increases the value of their overall marketplace, as well as the volume of users and transactions.

Several years ago, Accela made a strategic decision to build the infrastructure to allow third parties to implement our product. Now, we're opening up the infrastructure even further to our partners. Documentation, installation procedures and internal tools to manage the product are constantly being improved and brought to new levels. We felt strongly that being a world-class product company is not only in Accela’s best interest, but in the best interest of our customers as well. Open solutions are our future.

In my previous post, I outlined how the Accela Mobile SDK is an industry game changer for governments across the globe. One of the current bottlenecks of government SDKs is the fact that they're primarily one-way interactions. Databases and reference information do not create a call to action for citizens or users, and that's what we're aiming to change with our SDK. While we believe that government transparency is crucial in regards to these interactions, transactions are equally as important.

Accela is working to develop a number of apps with the SDK and some of our partners are working on apps of their own. There is a great opportunity for app development in a different landscape and we're excited to expand and explore.

With Accela creating open solutions for our product, we are actively looking for developers to create apps using the SDK. If you think government is the right direction for your next venture, stay tuned for more details coming shortly.

Blog Post: How the Accela Mobile SDK Changes the Game!

Maury Blackman — Tue, 06 Mar 2012 02:29:00 GMT

One of the highlights of the 7.2 release package and our Partner/Developer conference this year is the Accela Mobile SDK (software developers kit). The Mobile SDK is groundbreaking, a first for government, and will usher in a new level of communication with customers and foster the development of engaging mobile apps. The purpose of this SDK is simple: to empower our ecosystem with the tools and infrastructure to be able to deploy apps for mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets.

Clearly, the primary beneficiaries of the Mobile SDK are our customers. This transforms the Accela Automation system from a transactional product into a dynamic platform for civic engagement where apps can be built for virtually any customer interaction.

However, both our implementation and development partners stand to benefit greatly. For implementation partners working on projects the ability to create unique and highly customized apps with minimal effort creates unique opportunities to satisfy customers without getting Accela developers involved. For developers, the SDK opens the doors for building apps for government – a domain that’s typically hard to enter. With Accela, developers will have a built in audience of some of the largest and most prestigious agencies in the world.

We’re opening up our ecosystem – It’s game time.

Blog Post: US Department of Treasury recognizes Federal E-Permits as "Small Business Prime Contractor of the Year" for implementing Accela Automation for the Alcohol Tobacco and Tax department

Maury Blackman — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 02:46:00 GMT

I’m thrilled to extend Accela’s congratulations to our partner, Federal ePermits, for being the 2011 winner of the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s annual “Small Business of the Year” award, bestowed for outstanding contributions and service to Treasury’s Alcohol Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB). During a Dec. 15 award ceremony attended by Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and other Department leaders, Federal ePermits was cited for excellence in the performance of its contract to assist TTB in configuring and installing a Permits Online application, based on Accela Automation. Treasury lauded Federal ePermits for being “knowledgeable and capable” in preparing TTB for the project and cited its “extensive experience and skill” in helping TTB to accomplish its much-needed requirement.

Permits Online is TTB’s new method for drafting, submitting, and tracking original and amended applications to operate alcohol and tobacco businesses, and register to make tax-free sales of firearms and ammunition. The new system allows TTB to better support increasing application volumes, reduce costs, and improve service.

Federal ePermits, a joint venture between Washington-based TechGlobal, Inc. and Peak Technology Solutions, Inc., is a key Accela partner in the Federal market. We’re pleased to work with such a professional team, and we wish the company much success in 2012.
