What is TOPS?
TOPS stands for Thibaut Optimized Production Solutions. It is a new manufacturing approach that includes production modules arranged in such a way as to greatly improve your shops’ throughput by reducing material handling between processes. The same system can also improve quality and reduce waste by software nesting and process controls. Proper input at the start of the process eliminates processing errors down stream, and offers consistency of quality.
TOPS (Tax Online Payment System) allows individuals and businesses to pay their taxes/fees by means of electronic transfer of funds. The State of Alaska accepts payments by using the ACH Debit. ACH (Automated Clearinghouse) is a nationwide network used by the Federal Reserve System to handle direct payments electronically. TOPS is a safe and efficient way to make tax/fee payments directly to the State of Alaska.
