Using call data to save money and enhance customer service
Local authorities are aware of the importance of recording call data — not only from a compliance perspective, but to help deliver improved services to citizens too.
However, it’s no secret that local authorities are often under financial pressures to do more with less.
Having data analytics can provide staff with the insight to iron out bottlenecks in service delivery, effectively allocate staffing resource, manage fluctuations in demand, and streamline technology costs.
Given that traditional telephony remains one of the most popular channels of communication for local authorities, having call logging and analytics in place is vital for spotting seasonal trends and patterns in demand.
Data analytics can also help support local authorities with their channel shift strategies — giving staff the data to analyse the adoption and prove whether it has been successful or not.
What are the benefits of UC and workplace data analytics for local authorities?
Local authorities are highly regulated and face many financial, security, compliance, and fraud-related challenges. Data gives councils peace of mind to make the right decisions.

West Dunbartonshire Council uses call data to create positive change
By using Tiger Prism to log the 2,300 weekly calls it receives, WDC was able to streamline operations, fuel digital transformation, and improve the citizen experience.
“…Tiger Prism not only gives us an immediate live picture of the challenges facing our organisation, but it also tells us the story of what happened yesterday, to help us improve what we do tomorrow.”
