The EfficientGovNow program, presented by the Fund for Our Economic Future, is offering as much as $300,000 to fund as many as three government collaboration and efficiency projects, which will help advance Northeast Ohio. http://www.efficientgovnow.org/ I am working on a proposal to allow NE Ohio governments utilize a service that helps our region better coordinate transportation and roadway infrastructure projects. http://www.Envista.com For less than $300K, we could have our entire region, including utilities, state, and federal agencies sharing project information and optimizing funding and timing so as to maximize taxpayer dollars and minimize traffic congestion and excessive auto emissions caused by lack of coordination. Imagine the positive public relations this could bring to our region in terms of leveraging the stimulus fund. Please help me generate awareness by recommending “movers and shakers” in local government who would be excited about the opportunity to make their operations more efficient. Winning this grant would allow them to have the program practically paid for in full. I’m happy to do all the leg work and grant writing, I just need visionaries in government to write the proposal for. If you have a person I should talk to or any questions, please contact me through this forum.
