The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider
Overview
Empowering governments to efficiently serve.
At BasicGov this is our purpose. It is on our walls and every
day we focus on how to make state and local government interactions with
citizens and businesses more efficient around regulatory and compliance based
processes. Our purpose creates results for agencies and individuals who seek to
improve the citizen experience. Using BasicGov's comprehensive cloud platform,
Governments can automate and streamline operations to cut costs, meet the
ever-growing demand for citizen services and evolve into a more open,
transparent and collaborative organization.
Our cause for efficiency is further enhanced by our choice to
use the Force.com platform from Salesforce.com. This cloud platform provides
world class security, performance and flexibility. Unlike other permitting and
licensing companies, when you are working with BasicGov you are working with a
worldwide multi-billion dollar ecosystem and platform that offers a diverse
global resource pool and does not limit your agency to a proprietary platform.
With the BasicGov solution:
- Customer service responds to expected demands of self-service capabilities including online payments;
- Administrative tasks become automated and resource time maximized;
- Workflow rules create ordered processes for applications and violations from review to approval and inspection to re-inspection, respectively;
- Information is easily searchable and can be dragged and dropped into dynamic reports to provide performance metrics or resource visibility; and,
- Maintenance on technology infrastructure is lessened due to the powerful cloud platform.
Users can create, capture and securely store all types of documents (i.e. certificates, licenses, regulations, tickets/citations/legal orders, operations guide, payments, invoices, etc.) streamlining the licensing and/or inspections process by easily collaborating among staff and between agencies to save time, paper, and storage cost. Government agencies and departments can increase productivity through the use of a single application by automatically routing documents for reviews and approvals.
Additionally, information sharing is improved by capturing and reviewing investigations, integrating with other systems (i.e. GIS), backend systems, and public website providing a 360 degree view of all information and interactions.
