Boards, Commissions &
Committees, Modernized
eFile Civic is a modern nationwide platform for managing boards, commissions, and committees — rosters, seats, terms, applications, and appointments — with public transparency built in from day one.
Everything Your Clerk's
Office Needs in One Place
Purpose-built for the people who actually run boards, commissions, and committees — clerks, liaisons, and administrators.
Nationwide core platform. State-specific modules are available where applicable, including California Maddy Act reporting. Training integrations can be configured for any agency, with California options such as Brown Act, AB 1234, and SB 827 available where relevant.
Body Management
Manage every board, commission, and committee in one place — purpose, authority, meeting schedules, and member rosters all linked together.
Seats & Terms
Track seats, term lengths, start and end dates, eligibility rules, and appointment history with a clear audit trail for every change.
Vacancy & Expiration Alerts
Stop missing term expirations. Automatic alerts and reports surface upcoming vacancies before they become problems.
Applications & Appointments
Public application intake, reviewer workflows, and appointment tracking — from open seat to sworn-in member without spreadsheets. Supports complex custom workflows tailored to your agency's unique requirements.
Public-Facing Pages
Branded public pages for every body — current members, open seats, meeting info, and bios — automatically kept in sync with your data.
Messaging & PDFs
Templated emails, notifications, and document generation for appointment letters, certificates, and reports — with a full message log.
California Maddy Act Reporting
Available for California agencies: generate and publish Maddy Act vacancy notices and appointment logs to support California public notice requirements without manual effort.
Integrated Training
Connect required training through eFile LMS for agencies in any state. California agencies can add Ethics (AB 1234), Brown Act, and SB 827 Fiscal & Financial training with completion tracking built in.
One Platform, Every
Type of Public Body
Whether you manage a handful of advisory committees or hundreds of statutory bodies, eFile Civic scales with public agencies nationwide.
City Clerks & City Managers
Coordinate city council appointments, planning commissions, and citizen advisory committees — with public transparency pages your residents can actually use.
County Boards & Departments
Manage county-wide commissions, advisory boards, and statutory bodies with role-scoped admins, liaisons, and reviewers across departments.
