Notice description

A digital front door platform is designed to streamline and enhance the way residents and businesses interact with services that the Authority provides. The future platform will deliver the following strategic ambitions: • Easy, seamless experience whether engaging by phone, face to face, social media, AI chat or via a range of resident facing applications and forms. • Mobile friendly, easy access to advice, information, and support about our services at a time to suit our residents. • Opportunities to feedback about their digital journey and the design of our resident facing services. • An automated telephone payment system which allows users to make payments over the phone or online without needing to speak to an agent. • Receive a consistently effective digital service without having to tell us more than once. • Ability to capture nondigital interactions where residents have chosen to use non digital routes. • Real time access to updates about a service request. • Promotes an inclusive digital service. • Accessibility is embedded into the fabric of our solution so that residents with additional needs can engage with us digitally. • Seamless signposting to the wider local government community without having to understand the difference between county, district, or parish level services. • Ability to communicate in a non English first language. • An effective, timely and empathic response to an enquiry or service request. • Assurance that information we hold is safe and secure.

Coverage and the source register.

What this export cannot show

Award values are not linked to a named supplier, and no ceiling or maximum amount is shown. Those facts stay on the official notice when the notice publishes them. A tender deadline, award dates, supplier sizes, lots, and option or renewal wording appear on contract pages only where a held notice states them. A held process counts as last at tender or planning only when that is the latest stage among the held releases. Where more than one supplier is named, the names are joint and no share is stated.
