For local governments nationwide, citizen service centers are a vital link between agencies and the populations they serve. For many constituents, they are the primary communications channel for accessing resources, assistance, and information, and, as such, the performance of the service center can make the difference between a successful interaction and a frustrating one. With Microsoft 311 Service Center accelerator, cities and counties can empower both citizens and agents by helping to improve access and responsiveness, to personalize services, and to increase productivity and timeliness of service delivery.

The 311 Service Center accelerator is an end-to-end integrated framework that streamlines the entire system for servicing citizen requests, providing information, managing the back-office processing, and utilizing agency resources efficiently. Whether you are implementing an entirely new citizen service system or upgrading an existing one, 311 Service Center accelerator can consolidate and modernize your systems and processes by helping to ensure full coordination among multiple communications channels and the departments providing services.
Microsoft 311 Service Center accelerator is powered by Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 and the Windows Azure platform for maximum flexibility. Thanks to the multi-tenant architecture, you can host multiple instances on a single server, and a cloud-based model reduces infrastructure costs. Whether deployed on-premises, online, or in any combination that works best for your agency, the 311 Service Center accelerator offers powerful solutions to help your agency better serve your citizens, including:
Self-service citizen portal. Interactive, web-based citizen portals with a mapping component allow citizens to search for information, submit service requests, visualize geographic location information, and monitor the progress of active cases.
Case management and workflows. Whether a citizen initiates contact by phone or submits a request over the web, an end-to-end service request engine handles all the required routing and workflow, from the creation of a service request all the way through resolution, keeping stakeholders informed throughout the process with status notifications.
Call scripts. Interactive, step-by-step scripts, tailored to six specific scenarios, help agents handle calls and requests more efficiently and consistently. This can help minimize errors and improve the cost-effectiveness of service delivery.
Management dashboards and reporting. Powerful reporting capabilities through dashboards and standard reports, which seamlessly export to Microsoft Excel and other familiar formats, enhance performance tracking and accountability. Management-oriented reports display summary data of service requests by case type, priority, geographic distribution, and resolution time. These reports supply the timely business intelligence that enables cities and counties to analyze trends in citizen requests, monitor service level agreements, and improve accuracy and planning.
Mobile platform and telephony. Mobile HTML portal views that work across all browser-enabled devices allow citizens to submit requests and to access information via their mobile phones. This mobile connectivity also enables agency workers to update case information directly from the field. Telephony integration is accomplished through connectors as an extension to the accelerator.
Knowledge base. Microsoft Dynamics CRM capabilities make it easier to search internal and public data sources so both citizens and agency staff can find the information they need quickly.
The Microsoft 311 Service Center accelerator includes installation files, code, and documentation and is available for download at http://311center.codeplex.com.
The 311 accelerator was designed and delivered in collaboration with our partners Adxstudio and Unisys.
