Mobile Solutions for the Public Sector

Improving efficiency and delivering enhanced services with mobile technology

The public sector needs to deliver more for less. The Gershon review, an aging population and the expectations of the public are just some of the pressures you now face. Public services have to become more efficient just to provide the current level of provision and with cost reductions also being sought by central government, an effective solution must be found and fast.

By harnessing the power of mobile technology you have the solution. Mobile technology enables your staff to become more efficient, effective and visible. Front line staff are released from time consuming paperwork and manual reporting so that they can better carry out their tasks and interact more with the community. A better service is delivered, cheaper.

Embrace Mobile have developed a robust platform of modules to enable these improved efficiencies. These range from simple messages, and smart cards through to transactions, route planning, asset management and mobile access to existing applications.

Benefits of the Embrace Mobile Solution:

• Reduction in travel time and costs
• Reduction in administrative resources required
• Data entry more accurate and timely
• Immediate access to important or confidential records
• Quicker feedback and service for the recipient
• Better communication and interaction with the public

From street cleaners and maintenance personnel through to health workers and social services, 20% of public sector employees are mobile workers. This means that the opportunities for optimising your existing processes with mobile technology are vast. You can also take advantage of a wide number of applications that help you better communicate with the public including surveys and opinion polls via mobile phone.

The Embrace Mobile platform modules include:

• Surveys and opinion polls so you can better communicate with the public, particularly those traditionally difficult to reach for example C2,D,E's and the young
• Photo ID leisure and library smart cards with unique barcodes, reducing administration and increasing security
• On the spot payments for fines, fees and events by mobile chip and pin transactions
• Asset and document management by RFID tagging to track the location of valuable resources
• Automatic route planning and vehicle tracking to optimise the number of tasks completed
• Information gathering with photographic evidence and automatic audit trail
• Access to existing web or desktop applications through user friendly mobile interfaces
• Alerts and messages to both staff and the public to deliver important information and reduce reliance on paper process
