More than 2,000 users successfully created accounts and have begun using TABC’s new Alcohol Industry Management System (AIMS). TABC’s new online hub launched yesterday to make it easier for businesses to conduct their TABC tasks anytime and anywhere.  

Launch Day Success – By the Numbers

As of the evening of Sept. 2:

  • 2,777 user accounts created
  • 1,242 submissions of Claim Business requests to link businesses to AIMS accounts
  • 856 Claim Business requests approved (i.e., staff have reviewed and approved more than 70% of requests to date)
  • 368 renewal applications submitted
  • 1 in 4 website visitors navigated to the AIMS webpage on launch day

Businesses are beginning to use the system according to a 12-month onboarding schedule. Businesses should continue to begin using AIMS according to the onboarding schedule.  

Business Support

As with any new system, we recognize that you have questions and need TABC’s support to adopt this new technology.
