Can you believe it’s been 10 years since we’ve updated our logo? These AAAs must be keeping us busy! While we loved our previous design and will still use many aspects of it, we thought it was time for something fun and different to go along with our move back to Colorado! Thanks to Matthew Moore of Longmont Colorado for his brilliant creativity and for capturing the perfect look for us!

Hey all! Have you heard the news? Vintage AAA is taking annual evaluations to a new level! No more Google Forms and email attachments for them this year! Vintage has gone all in on a new provider evaluation module in OAA-SYS and so far so good. We’ll see what the providers say though! Wish us luck!

Chocolate Software is so excited to welcome our newest OAA-SYS customer, Larimer County! We can’t wait to learn about Larimer’s processes and I’m sure their contributions to OAA-SYS will benefit everyone. Looking forward to working with you, Larimer!

The end of the year is upon us, folks! Need to collect last minute information from your providers to help close out SFY21?? As you know, sometimes there are differences between actual and contract values. Would you like to understand those a little better? Check out the OAA-SYS Close-out Module! This module provides a way for you to work with your providers on understanding any differences between contracted and actual revenue, expenses and units over the course of the year. You can also ask providers specific questions about the year (this might be a great way for you to get feedback from your providers about processes and technology, for example!). Contact one of us at ChocoSoft to get the low-down on this awesome module (built by DRCOG – thanks, DRCOG!)

Ever need to share a document with your voucher providers or contractors? It’s been a long time coming (thanks Boulder AAA for a great idea!) but OAA-SYS CRS and RFP now allow you to do this in just a couple clicks! Don’t chew up anymore email space with large documents – simply upload them on the admin side for all your providers to see the next time they log in!

Chocolate Software is getting into the volunteer management business! The team has just embarked on a new project with Region 10 to build out an entire system dedicated to tracking and reporting for all of their volunteer programs, including SHIP, Senior Companion and RSVP. We’ll continue to keep you posted!

Having used OAA-SYS® for nearly a decade, the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) knows a thing or two about leveraging the OAA-SYS® Contracts and Reimbursements System (CRS) to streamline their work flow.

Not surprising then when the AAA received federal funding through DRCOG’s Metropolitan Planning Organization Process to support Transportation and Assisted Transportation related services across the Denver metro area, DRCOG reached out to the Chocolate Software team to explore expanding the OAA-SYS® Contract & Reimbursement System to allow them to program these funds along side their regular OAA and state funded programs. The module captures the process and requirements for providers requesting capital equipment.
