Public Sector

More convenience, less cost through online engagement

The public sector of the future needs to be even more efficient, cost-effective and accountable in delivering fundamental services. Aging populations and increasing healthcare cost add to the budgetary pressures. At the same time, citizens are demanding governments to be made more accountable for taxpayer money and improve service.

Words like openness and transparency are key triggers for increasingly skeptical societies whose citizen is ramped up with easy access to social media channels that drastically and rapidly send dissatisfaction or approval ratings up or down. However, resolving citizen queries often requires tapping a wide range of issues involving complex layers of organizations, individual privacy entitlement privileges and more factors. And the consequences of producing inaccurate information can be dangerous expensive and serious.

The Internet is helping the public sector to move faster while raising expectations of citizens for better online support. For example, to reduce the amount of time and efforts required resolving issues. In some cases, times to resolve identical issues can be dropped from weeks to minutes, thanks to the Internet. Public sector frequently face unconnected data silos where relevant answers and expertise are available but not always made easily accessible for citizens. That is exactly where the Vergic Engagement Platform comes in.
