CHEYENNE - When it comes to
technology at the Wyoming Game and Fish
Department, Jason Edwards and his team
have a lot on their plates, especially last year.
From the launch of a revamped Game and
Fish website, the transition to a new document
management system, data and policy security
and the software for the public to purchase
fishing and hunting licenses, Edwards and
his team had a busy year that hasn't let up.
As a result, Game and Fish Director Brian
Nesvik honored Edwards, Game and Fish
chief technology officer, with the department's
Outstanding Leadership Award, which was
presented during the Wyoming Game and
Fish Commission meeting in Buffalo in July.
" Jason has the ability to work with other
divisions across the department to meet their
needs and understand their processes, " Nesvik said.
Game and Fish launched its new website
in May.
" There were a lot of transitions and
roadblocks that jumped up along the way, "
Nesvik said. " Through all these challenges and
the complexity of trying to put together a new
website that will house all of our information
and still make it user-friendly to most of our
constituents, Jason was a leader for all of the
folks around the department that were integral
in working on the new website. "
The Commission also awarded division
employees of the year and the team of the year
during the meeting.
