The Public Sector Leaders Perspective
As a leader in the Public Sector, you understand the challenges of remaining rules & regulations compliant, whilst cutting costs and providing improving Customer Service in the ways your customers or users expects. Recent studies show that many organisations are unaware of the full potential of best-of-breed current document and communications technologies. This is even more so across many Public Sector organisations.
Fortunately there is a proven solution that meets these challenges across the whole enterprise one which delivers on requirements of batch print, interactive content platforms, legislative and DPA records, and can provide a 360⁰ view of relevant customer correspondence and information where and when it’s needed.
At Icon UK we specialise in creating customer communications solutions, working with business leaders and senior management teams to guide them through the right choices to realise significant improvements in customer service, cost reduction and revenue enhancement, whilst ensuring policy/guidelines compliance. This generates substantial returns on investment - in some cases over 100% in year one…
In an increasingly challenging sector, the early adopters of these enhanced Customer Communications Management solutions are rapidly realising increased performance. Browse the additional information on this site, or contact us for an exploratory discussion.
Challenges
Whatever your organisation’s role, it’s inevitable that many of your challenges are shared with others in the public domain, and to a significant extent with the private sector; namely how to:
- respond accurately, rapidly and flexibly to your customer base,
- capture, store and reuse vital customer centric information,
- respond rapidly to new legislative and government initiatives,
- service your customers with personalised, informed communications,
plus the “behind the scenes” obligations of meeting policy, regulatory and legal requirements.
These are far from easy tasks in face of the headline challenges of meeting government and community expectations, employee satisfaction and, of course, personal fulfilment. But many of these challenges are crystallised in how your organisation interacts with its customers and how:
- Customer (or Service User) communications are managed
- Increasing customers expectations of self service capability are provided
- customer information is shared between departments, people and systems,
- a complete picture of a specific customer profile, interactions, issues and correspondence can be visible at one place when and when needed…
Once upon a time such things were visible in a single folder paper or electronic but in today’s world where correspondence can take so many forms, whether physical or electronic, and be in so many places and this could be within your organisation, or a sister organisation that a single, unified view is hard to attain, present and react to.
Equally, as new delivery mechanisms - SMS, person internet, tablets, smartphone, etc. create larger volumes and greater complexity, speed and absolute accuracy come increasingly to the fore in order to protect the organisation and meet growing public expectations of ‘more for less’ public service delivery.
