How we got started
Improving Performance Measures
![Page 3: Collections, how would we go about doing that?.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ea05503460f94ba2c0d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
On target with most of Performance Measures
Woefully under achieving on Misdemeanor Collections
Goal was 40 % Volusia Collection Rate 32%
What should we do about that?•Formulated in court forms for payment plans
•During sentencing defendants were enrolled
•Terms set for satisfaction over 6 months
•Signed by defendant in courtroom
•Limited involvement, got payment plans started

Collecti ons went downFrom 32% to 29%

Why did this happen?
No follow-up after initiation
No incentive to pay- sign and go home
Incomplete explanation of process
![Page 6: Collections, how would we go about doing that?.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ea05503460f94ba2c0d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
90 days to implement- Got to haves
One judge-One Courtroom implementation at a time
Support from administration
Go Getter as your Lead Compliance Officer

Flexibility in your approach
With as much automation as you can apply
![Page 8: Collections, how would we go about doing that?.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ea05503460f94ba2c0d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What makes things work

Compliance Software – I-Plow- Automates payment plans and
Integrates to Case Management

3rd Party Collection Agency
tracks due dates
![Page 9: Collections, how would we go about doing that?.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ea05503460f94ba2c0d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What makes things workOffice process incorporates applicants to front counter, acquaints customers and staff with waiting for next available counselor, creates plan on-line including image of signed plan at time of initiation.
![Page 10: Collections, how would we go about doing that?.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ea05503460f94ba2c0d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What makes things work
Application captures all relevant credit and asset information. Allows flexibility in regular obligation (not one cost divided evenly over a time frame). Puts responsibilityback on applicant. Must keep in contact with office if situation changes.
![Page 11: Collections, how would we go about doing that?.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649ea05503460f94ba2c0d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What makes things workNotify often using multiple methods. Post cards and voice messaging calls deliveredprior to payment being due, upon late prior to DL suspension, at DL suspension, and prior to delivery to 3rd Party Collection Agency.

What makes things workCooperation with Court teams. Judiciary meetings one on one to determine what worksin each courtroom. One by one rollout to properly manage expectations.

Results?In first 6 weeks raised collection rate from 29% to nearly 35%
All 6 judges implemented in less than 9 months at 2 locations

What has happened since then?
Great cooperation from the Court
Front Counter staffing completing plans and updating negotiated adjustments
Automation actively creating plans, mailing postcards, making calls

Despite Focus- Collecti ons Lag
Need to treat financial sanctions as penalties
Working Plan but Plan isn’t producing – misdemeanor assessments hover at a 30% or lower collection rate
Clerks as Collectors- New Territory
Causes??
Need Additional ways to create convenience payments
