Enabling the Digital Ecosystem

Step by Step Instructions


Overview

Data interoperability and Digital Ecosystems are enabled by utilizing standardized data sets like XBRL and FDX that can be exchanged by project stakeholders for multiple purposes.


From this website you can generate and submit data to create or retrieve surety bonds and applications for payment.


Access to data is limited to stakeholders that are a party to the agreement and/or surety bond.


Only the principal or surety broker can create a surety record, and only the principal can execute.


Only the principal or obligee can create a payment application, and only the oligee can approve it.


FISTech platform can import surety bond or applications for payment data that is exported from any system that supports XBRL or FDX.
