Since all six counties are using the same software, we are able to achieve economies of scale by creating scripts, reports, etc. that benefit all counties. Additionally, Lane County maintains the tax lot data for three of these counties and has created an Internet mapping application for those three counties, giving their citizens access to property and map information.
Custom Application Products Lane County has developed and supports a wide range of applications specific to local government. Depending on the technology used, these products are available as purchased or as hosted software packages. Again, cost savings may be possible through economies of scale.
