South Dakota Office of Licensing and Accreditation (OLA) Implements New MIS from RedMane Technology

CHICAGO, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- South Dakota Office of Licensing and Accreditation (OLA) recently launched its new Management Information System (MIS) that modernizes and enhances provider licensing and accreditation processes for state agencies, service providers, and constituents.

This solution from RedMane Technology supports and has been rolled out to a wide range of provider types, including child care programs, youth care facilities, and accredited behavioral health providers. By offering a digital approach, the MIS streamlines licensing and accreditation of providers including processes related to background checks, inspections, compliance monitoring, reducing administrative burden while improving service quality and transparency.

"With the launch of South Dakota's new MIS solution, we are empowering OLA staff and providers with an integrated, efficient, and user-friendly system," said Tony Lakier, CEO of RedMane, provider of the technology solution. "By leveraging technology, we are ensuring that licensing, compliance, and accreditation processes are more accessible, secure, and effective for all stakeholders."

Key features and benefits of the MIS solution include:

• Constituent Portal: Citizens can easily perform provider searches, accessing program profiles, program certificates, inspections and compliance documentation, along with the ability to submit inquiries and complaints.
• Provider Portal: Providers can efficiently manage applications, submit and review background check requests, review inspections and complete various compliance plans. The portal provides the ability to access and submit various forms, along with a message center that facilitates communication between providers and OLA staff.
• Staff Portal: OLA staff securely accesses a configurable, user-friendly solution that replaces various legacy solutions (e.g., spreadsheets, databases, manual processing). The MIS supports processes around provider lifecycle management of inquiries, applications, renewals, compliance plans, background check submissions, site inspections, floor plans, and certificate management, along with solution components that provide reporting and analytics.

The MIS is built upon mCase, RedMane's modern human services platform that is created with flexibility, efficiency, and scalability in mind, enabling a collaborative environment between agencies, providers, and constituents.
