OLATHE, Kan. -- (Business Wire)
The American Council for Technology and Industry Advisory Council
(ACT-IAC) has selected YourPassNow,
a digital solution that makes entrance passes, permits, and licenses for
public lands available for purchase online, as a finalist for the 2017
Igniting Innovation Showcase to be held on March 14, 2017 at the Ronald
Reagan Building in Washington D.C.
The ACT-IAC’s Institute for Innovation seeks nominations to recognize
highly innovative IT products, services, systems, and solutions that
benefit government (federal, state, local, and tribal) and citizens.
YourPassNow was selected as one of 30 finalists out of 120 submissions
to compete for the top award. The Igniting Innovation Award is given to
the best overall innovation as determined by the audience in attendance
at the event.
YourPassNow is a responsively designed, mobile optimized website. Using
a personal device, citizens can purchase access to public lands from one
centralized, digital marketplace. For land management agencies,
YourPassNow offers a validation feature that helps prevent fraudulent
use of credentials on public lands. YourPassNow actively promotes
understanding about how fees are needed and used to protect and maintain
our nation’s most treasured outdoor places.
“We are honored that YourPassNow has been selected by the ACT-IAC as a
finalist for the 2017 Igniting Innovation Showcase,” said Robert Knapp,
NIC’s Chief Operating Officer. “Not only does YourPassNow provide a new
level of convenience for those wishing to visit America’s most treasured
places, it also helps collect valuable revenue for public land
management agencies.”
YourPassNow is currently used by locations within the National Park
Service and the U.S. Forest Service. Any public land agency interested
in offering electronic entrance passes, permits, or licenses for
recreation purposes can easily transition to the YourPassNow digital
platform.
