INTRODUCTION
Agile's Vital Records
System is the application of our customizable databank,
Data Pro®, which is
designed to store critical information for instant retrieval.
Data Pro® finds
application where ever data needs to be CENTRALLY STORED,
CENTRALLY MANAGED AND UTILIZED IN A DISTRIBUTED ENVIRONMENT.
Our Vital Records
e-Registry system consists of the following three modules:
» MDR Module - Marriage &
Divorce Registry to cross list marital records on a global
platform for instant verifications.
» BRS Module - Birth
Registry System to cross list birth records on a global
platform for instant verifications.
» DRS Module - Death
Registry System to cross list death records on a global
platform for instant verifications.
The modules can
operate on their own or integrated as desired. The system can
be hosted on the Internet, Intranet, Local or Enterprise-wide
Networks.
UTILIZATION
» Marriage Validation Search - A vital
requirement for the approval of new marriages.
» Foreign Travel Visa
Applicants – By foreign embassies for marital and life
records.
» Passport Applicants – By
Immigration Services for marital and life records
» Employers – Search for
marital and life records.
» Statutory Age
Declaration Applicants – Search by the Judiciary marital and
life records.
» Other searches by the
State Agencies, Security Agencies and the General Public.
BENEFITS
» In developing nations like Nigeria, there is
complete lack of enabling infrastructure and database to cross
list and crosscheck the marital status of couples applying for
a new marriage license. Traditionally, such marital records
are contained in paperback registers and kept in the
storerooms of the local governments where the marriages were
licensed. The logistics of verifying such records on a global
basis are impractical. As a result intending couples could be
licensed to marry, and indeed may contract such marriage,
without the detection of a previously contracted marriage
still very much in effect. Our Electronic Registry will
instantly detect such a fraud.
» The same applies to Birth and Death Records,
which are also stored in paperback registries at the various
places of births and deaths. It is quite easy for anyone to
change his/her date of birth through the age declaration
statutes in the Courts without being detected. It is also
possible for the dead to go undetected such that ghost workers
continue to receive benefits for a very long time. Our
Electronic Registry will detect such illegal acts instantly.
» Foreign embassies in Nigeria require visa
applicants to provide certified copies of their birth and
marriage certificates. This is currently done through the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs for lack of proper verification
process. The Ministry itself does not conduct independent
verifications of the documents presented by the visa
applicants, simply because, it can’t. There are no
infrastructures for such verifications, which make the entire
exercise a hollow formality. Foreign Embassies and the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs would welcome and patronize our
Electronic Registry.
» The Immigration Services require that passport
applicants provide birth and marriage certificates as well. As
already indicated, there are no practical means of verifying
the authenticity of the document provided by the applicants in
a timely manner. As a result, these documents are accepted on
face value. The agency would welcome this initiative.
» Many employers, state agencies, security
agencies and other concerns that need and desire verification
of birth, marital, and death status of persons of interest to
them would welcome our system as well.
Agile's Electronic Vital Record System provides the solution
to these problems by computerizing and integrating marital and
life registries, accessible on a a variety of global
platforms. It allows for the scanning and storage of the
relevant certificates, to include previously existing
certificates.
IMPLEMENTATION MODALITY
» Our Vital Records System can be implemented at
multiple local registries simultaneously.
» Mirror and constantly synchronize the local
data to the integrated global database.
» Integrate all local data on the Internet,
Intranet or any global network platform of choice to enable
duplication and sharing of the local databases on a global
scale.
» Superb as a
Public-Private Partnership (PPP) initiative; the
public partners providing the enabling environment to enroll
new records and the acquisition of archived data required to
produce a viable registry.
» Fee-based search for marriage, divorce, birth
or death records.
PARTNERSHIP
We continue to seek
partnerships to implement our Electronic Vital Records System
in Communities, States/Provinces and Countries in Africa.
