Example of Cost Savings and Innovation
Implementation of CFS eOffice
CHSRA was considering utilizing Caltrans MIS system but they were concerned about the high initial fee and annual fees. CFS introduced its cloud based, customized, right of way and property management databases that they developed. It has since been customized to include other organizations including Caltrans legal and Department of General Services to improve communication between government agencies, consulting firms and throughout the CHSR. Utilization of the CFS database has saved CHSRA millions of dollarsover using other products that were being considered at the time.
