Need for CX in Local Government
Traditionally, local government are organizations that provide a variety of services to their customers/citizens, businesses, and communities. Services can be around government property, waste management, roads, animal management, aged care, healthcare, etc.
While the private sector has been adopting IT modernization and digital transformation to provide efficient services and user experience to its customers and employees, government organizations have been relatively slow in adapting to the technology as there are several moving parts involved.
Complex organizations like local government can also present serious challenges in achieving customer centricity and making things easy for customers. To achieve customer centricity, government organizations need centralized access to data that includes all the clients’ interactions. The siloed data maintained in the legacy systems impact the efficiency and quality of the services provided.
With the increasing demand for providing consistent service experience across various digital channels, reduction in productivity of staff and complexity of the associated processes is pushing the local government towards adapting the latest Customer Experience technologies like Oracle, Salesforce, Microsoft, and other third-party solutions.
