Kuwait Environment Public Authority Transforms Violation Management with Intalio's Advanced Inspection System

KUWAIT CITY, Kuwait, Jan. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Intalio, a global leader in Intelligent Information Management, has partnered with the Kuwait Environment Public Authority (EPA) to transform how the EPA manages environmental violations. With a custom-built electronic violations system, the EPA now automates the recording, processing, and reconciliation of violation data, significantly improving compliance efforts. The project started on June 30, 2022, and was successfully completed on March 31, 2024.

Addressing Key Challenges in Environmental Violation Management

Earlier, the EPA faced challenges in improving how it managed environmental violations. Inspectors and officers worked with systems that were not fully connected, making it hard to share information quickly and accurately between departments. This sometimes caused delays and made it difficult to keep track of cases and reports.

Another challenge was presented by the lack of tools available for inspectors to access or update important data. This limited their ability to document violations and gather evidence effectively, leading to slower enforcement of environmental laws. This lack of tools and automation also made it difficult to communicate with external agencies, such as the Ministry of the Interior and the Environmental Police, which occasionally caused delays and miscommunication.

Handling sensitive information securely was another concern. Without a strong digital system, there was a higher risk of data breaches or tampering. Inspectors were also forced to communicate with violators manually, which slowed down the process of addressing cases and resolving issues. These challenges highlighted the need for a modern system to improve efficiency, security, and coordination.
