The Municipal Challenge

Municipal service issues and council inquiries often cross departmental boundaries, creating coordination challenges and accountability gaps.

Without a shared system, teams rely on emails and manual follow-ups, making it difficult to provide timely responses to council, maintain consistency, and demonstrate service performance.

  • Cases spanning multiple departments with unclear ownership
  • Limited visibility into councillor inquiries and escalations
  • Inconsistent responses and follow-up across teams
  • Difficulty reporting on outcomes and timelines to leadership

How It Works

Case & Inquiry Intake

Council inquiries, resident escalations, and internal service cases are captured in a centralized system, ensuring consistent intake and complete context from the start.

Cross-Department Collaboration

Cases are shared across departments with defined ownership, enabling teams to collaborate, coordinate actions, and avoid duplication or missed handoffs.

Standardized Workflows & Tracking

Configurable workflows guide cases through review, action, and resolution stages, ensuring consistency and accountability across the organization.

Leadership Visibility & Reporting

Dashboards provide leadership with real-time insight into case volumes, response times, escalations, and cross-department performance metrics.

Outcome and Values

Stronger Governance

Clear ownership, tracking, and reporting support consistent responses, accountability, and reduce governance and political risk.

Improved Coordination

Shared visibility and standardized workflows break down silos between departments and improve collaboration across municipal teams.

Clear Executive Insight

Reliable data enables leadership to respond confidently to council inquiries, identify systemic issues, and support evidence-based decisions.
