The division also provides service to all bureau and Commission staff. The internal staff benefit from software development projects including the Management Tracking System and the Auctions Expenditure Tracking System. Other internal software is delivered to bureau staff via the Intranet. Several processing tools including the Major Transaction Program, the Special Temporary Authority program, and the Microwave Canadian Retrieval system have greatly aided FCC staff in processing and analyzing license requests quickly and accurately. Wireless relies heavily on automation to perform its tasks.
DMD staff ensure that the Gettysburg computers and network are operating efficiently.
Providing help desk support and network maintenance at Gettysburg are the responsibility of the Data Management Division. Among all of the applications, licenses, systems and software, there is one thing that makes the division successful. It's our people. I feel that we have a dedicated staff who are willing to meet the challenges of today and those of tomorrow. They are willing to work hard and adapt to the ever-changing Commission.
