The Prosecution Service of the Russian Federation, as a body of the federal government, supervises the application of law and order in Russia with a view to ensuring observance of the Russian Constitution and federal legislation, to protect human rights, and to uphold the legal interests of the Russian Federation, its constituent elements and municipal units.

Business need:
Each month, the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation receives over 100,000 requests from government agencies to inspect small businesses for regulatory compliance. The office must quickly decide whether to approve the requests while ensuring the rights of small businesses are protected. But keeping up with the caseload was difficult with the office’s spreadsheet-based decision-making system.

Solution:
The prosecutor’s office implemented a comprehensive business analytics solution to streamline processing and moved to electronic inspection request forms. The solution provides rapid, transparent access to decision-support data, fulfilling the government’s policy of ensuring openness in business inspections while significantly reducing the workload associated with processing inspection requests.

Benefits:
· Predicts future business development trends, enabling forward-looking planning. Slashes processing time for critical data from days to hours, speeding adjudication of 1.2 million requests per year. · Replaces paper-based systems with automated processes using data collected from electronic forms. · Links networked devices to provide real-time information access 
for timely decision making.
