Case Study: Wichita Metropolitan Planning Organization saves time and money with EcoInteractive's ProjectTracker eTIP

Wichita Area Mpo (Wampo) Saves Time And Money With Modern Etip Tool

Wichita Metropolitan Planning Organization (WAMPO) needed a better way to manage TIP amendment updates across multiple project sponsors. The team was relying on emailed Microsoft Access tables, making routine processing tedious, time-consuming, and error-prone, especially when handling project funding data and preparing accurate reports. EcoInteractive’s ProjectTracker eTIP was used to modernize the process with secure cloud-based access for internal staff and external partners.

EcoInteractive implemented ProjectTracker eTIP to streamline amendment workflows with automated QA/QC, real-time updates, built-in reporting templates, and nightly FMIS data integration. As a result, WAMPO cut routine amendment processing from weeks to less than 2 hours, saved significant time on reporting and reconciliation, and improved funding balance forecasting accuracy. EcoInteractive also helped reduce duplicate data entry, speed up approvals, and support remote collaboration across the agency’s 21 jurisdictions.
