IRIS Modernization Project

What is IRIS?

IRIS, the Industrial Commission’s Redesigned Information System, is a multi-year project, executed by the Idaho Industrial Commission (IIC) in tandem with In Time Tec, to configure commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software which fulfills the Industrial Commission’s business requirements. The goal of IRIS is to replace paper-dependent administrative processes with digital solutions that emphasize customer service, optimize data management, and foster workflow efficiency.

The project will implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 to replace all existing business applications. It will also introduce digital document storage solutions and Power BI, a robust reporting and analytics tool, to Commission operations.

Feel free to reach out to the IRIS team at iris@iic.idaho.gov with any questions.

Project Status

The IRIS Modernization Project is nearing completion. The Commission is currently working on:

  • Final application enhancements for the Crime Victims Compensation Program
  • Enhanced dynamic reporting features across the Commission

These remaining components are scheduled to be completed this summer.

Idaho Industrial Commission Web Portal

We are excited to announce that the Idaho Industrial Commission’s web portal is now online. The portal enhances communication and streamlines essential tasks for stakeholders involved in various workers’ compensation activities.

Key Features:

  • Document Submission: Easily upload and submit necessary documents for specific processes.
  • Online Forms: Complete and submit forms directly through the portal, saving time and paperwork.
  • Status Tracking: Access real-time updates on submission and case statuses, ensuring transparency and efficiency.

Progress:

The following portal forms are now available and actively in use by the Industrial Commission:

  • Coverage Compliance Questionnaire: Used by our Employer Compliance Department to determine compliance with Idaho’s coverage requirements.
  • Extraterritorial Coverage Questionnaire: Used by our Employer Compliance Department to determine eligibility for extraterritorial coverage approval.
  • Surety Report Submissions: Reports include Premium Tax, Outstanding Awards, Net Unpaid Liabilities, and Claim Losses.
  • Settlements: An external portal for workers’ compensation attorneys to submit settlement documents, track case statuses, and download completed filings for various settlement agreement submissions. Note: Pro Se claimants will continue to receive communications and documents directly from our benefits team.
  • Workers Compensation Complaints: External portal for workers’ compensation attorneys to initiate workers compensation complaints, submit required documentation, track case statuses, and download decisions.

Stay tuned

In the coming months we will launch the following portal updates:

  • Rehabilitation Referral Portal Form: Used by injured workers and/or their representatives to submit referral requests to utilize our rehabilitation services.
  • Crime Victim’s Portal for claimants: A secure portal for crime victims to submit documentation, communicate with the Commission, and track the status of their claims. This portal is planned to launch in the fall.
