      "@type": "Answer",
      "text": "Yes, we do.

Backlogs are common and can create a vicious cycle. When organizations have a backlog of notices to respond to – and lack the manpower to tackle them – it’s easy for notices to fall by the wayside. When notices aren’t addressed promptly, issuing agencies will send duplicate or sequential notices, which exacerbates the existing backlog.

If your organization is struggling, NOTICENINJA can help close out your backlog of notices – and empower you to remain backlog-free. The platform’s automated workflows and due date tracking and document management functionalities enable organizations to resolve notices within 30 days, eliminating the cycle of follow-up notices and growing backlogs."
