User Support and Training
The CMA common core infrastructure platform built out as part of the recent renovation project has allowed us to implement technology that was not possible prior to the renovation. This platform gives us the ability to support multiple systems without the need to build out a separate infrastructure for each. This helps save resources both financially and in staff time to manage and operate. In addition, it allows for a quicker implementation of new and upgraded systems along with standardizing system support since we are leveraging this common platform
