Overview

The I-69 Trans-Texas Corridor is a project that will improve overall traffic mobility in the South and Northeast Texas area. I-69 is the shortest route between the Northeast and South Texas; it will reduce travel time, fuel consumption, and costs and serve the largest segments of U.S. trade with Mexico and Canada. I-69 is expected to increase economic activity throughout the eight state corridor, where 4.2 million residents live below poverty level. I-69 is also estimated to spawn more than 40,000 new jobs by 2025, resulting in $12.8 billion in additional wages and $24 billion in added value.

For HBMG’s role as the Information Technology sub consultant for the 10-to-50 year Interstate Highway 69 TxDOT transportation project, HBMG provided operations management, network infrastructure, and electronic document management.

Collaboration

Networking: HBMG’s primary role in supporting the network infrastructure and telecommunications involves the installation and maintenance of all necessary components. As a full-service provider, HBMG tailored hardware and software services to the Texas Turnpike Authority, established help desk operations, engaged in software deployment and updates, managed infrastructure, tracked assets, and trained users. HBMG’s help desk serves as the central point for all problems related to IT, ECM, and software development.

ECM:
HBMG gathered and analyzed the ECM requirement, then installed and configured the eLogs module of HBMG’s eManagers suite. HBMG trained users and migrated existing documents (paper and electronic) to eLogs. The project’s library currently holds over 2,100 documents. HBMG also established information handling processes for the project and continues to provide ECM user support and training, ECM system administration, and ECM extensions and reports for the project. HBMG also supplements the client’s staff with document management specialists for day-to-day document control operations. HBMG performs QA on its systems to ensure smooth operations.

The I-69 ENV library is a standalone version of eManagers with the eLogs and PI Logs modules. It was implemented in June 2008 and holds 29,100 documents.

Collaboration

Collaboration is at the heart of Electronic Content Management. Effective collaboration allows people across the extended enterprise to circulate ideas, experiences and knowledge. Smart organizations look to collaboration technologies in order to increase productivity, lower costs, and enhance existing IT resources. To maximize agility and responsiveness, companies today focus on improving collaboration among employees, partners, and customers. Organizations around the world and from varied industries use Electronic Content Management, or ECM technology to foster collaboration, implement vital process improvements, and to protect and retain mission-critical information.

HBMG Inc. is focused on providing a secure space for sharing ideas and maximizing the intelligence of multiple entities. HBMG has created the eManagers Collaboration Suite to do just this. eManagers allows you to share information anytime and anywhere. It automates document tracking and auditing, and helps teams meet objectives in a secure enclave. People can quickly form cross-functional project teams, capture shared knowledge, manage processes and meet project deadlines across geographic, departmental or company boundaries.

HBMG’s Collaboration Suite may be just the solution to conquer the pressures of changing markets, shrinking margins, and increasing competition.

Security

Protecting your organizations assets is more important and more difficult than ever before. Today's threat landscape comprises far more than DDoS attacks, viruses and worms. To protect against the broad array of internal and external threats, more companies are considering security programs that forge closer ties between the physical and logical security realms. The different security staffs have the same goal—protect enterprise assets and usually they exist as independent factions.  The new economy of the convergence technology, budgetary realities and government initiatives are driving enterprises and agencies to question whether business as usual is hurting the bottom line.  HBMG’s Security Practice helps companies bridge the gap between physical, data and logical security. 

Strategy

Change is happening at an increasing pace. Newer technology replaces new technology. Global competition appears in local markets and changes not only the market but value chains. Customers demand more innovation from their partners and providers, changing the face of collaboration. Knowledge of and preparation for the future is a must for survival.
