Sophisticated Management Tools
Power tools designed to constantly monitor developments and enable you to store, analyze, segment, track and report on relevant legislation and regulations.
Why it matters: Managing the sheer volume of data related to your issues is an enormous task. We specifically designed all aspects of our service to overcome that challenge.
Why it's different: Other services rely on one type of searching, and are limited in their ability to sort, sift, and convey information in a meaningful and manageable format.
How you benefit: You can dramatically reduce the time and effort involved in managing your government affairs information.
Put it to work: At your request we'll employ our newest diagnostic tool to thoroughly analyze your search strategy to determine its "productivity" and compare results to your Private Tracking File. Next, we'll create a goal-based scenario to fine-tune how your information is identified, sorted and delivered.

Data Integrity
Our services are backed by a 40-year commitment to providing fast and accurate information achieved through routine and consistent checks to ensure correct and complete data integrity. Teams familiar with the legislative and regulatory process in each state identify and address errors and omissions unique to that state.
Why it matters: Our process minimizes your risk of relying on inaccurate information. Together with correcting errors and fixing missing information, our team also configures bill text and other information into a uniform format so that it's quick and easy for you to post into memos or documents.
Why it's different: Other services simply scrape and paste raw content and links to state-issued bill text. While this approach is cheap and efficient-it's also unreliable and costly to their end users.
How you benefit: You can rely on State Net's reporting and confidently share comprehensive and quality controlled information with your stakeholders.
Put it to work: It's working for you every time you get a report from State Net!

Customized Services
Highly-targeted, individually designed services built to your exact specifications.
Why it's our focus: Sorting through inaccurate and unfocused data is a waste of your time and resources. Our customized services provide focused reporting and strategic delivery methods that are designed to meet the needs of every person in your organization.
How you benefit: Custom-built solutions maximize your efficiency and resources.

Customized Services can help if your challenges include:

  • Working with a diverse group of clients, members or internal constituents that have different demands and work styles
  • Managing a huge list of issues
  • Shrinking staff resources

Put it to work: Share your program goals and the information needs of your internal and external users with your Client Service Manager who will design an optimum service and delivery system.
