With this complete set of collected information, government organisations can quickly analyse key performance areas of their readiness, share the analysis and act upon the analysed data.


Overview
In any emergency, governments experience a dramatic increase in enquiries, questions, responses, coordination, and reporting. Call centres, offices, and websites see increased volumes as the public seeks information and contact with government officials. This creates a natural demand for faster and more consistent responses, tight internal coordination, and time-sensitive reporting. As they work as a connected network of ‘command centres’ coordinating both internal and external engagement, all responders need the ability to coordinate resources, personnel, supplies, and transportation. The Salesforce platform delivers an integrated set of capabilities that optimises and connects the response efforts of government through a high-velocity call centre/case management console, community web portals, chatbots, analytics, and knowledge base.


Self-Service Portal
Constituents and residents can also self-serve to reduce case loads and phone lines in Salesforce Community portals. These sites are all mobile responsive so constituents can easily access via a mobile or tablet browser. Within the portal, constituents can see important links, blog posts, videos, knowledge articles, and more. If constituents need help finding information, they can engage with the chatbot embedded in the portal. The bot can be configured to provide key information, case statuses, and in some instances—transfer to a service agent. Organisations and departments can rapidly spin up portals utilising pre-built templates and drag and drop configuration tools.

Schedule Appointments
During emergencies, constituents often need services simultaneously. Utilising Salesforce automation tools, constituents can complete assessments to determine eligibility and then after approved, they can schedule an appointment to receive a test or pick up supplies.


Call Centre Operations
Not all constituents can or want to self-serve, which is why enabling call centres and Salesforce is so important. Salesforce provides the necessary capabilities to create an intelligent emergency management response and recovery service for constituents and emergency responders alike.
Service agents have all the tools they need to manage the emergency head on. They can login to their homepage and see a list of all open cases, a dashboard of metrics relating to the emergency, their feed where they can collaborate with colleagues and remain up-to-date on everything within the organisation. In the Service Cloud console, any computer telephony system can be integrated to receive contact centre calls and case requests. Salesforce is web-based so agents can complete their work remotely.


Mobile Check-in
When a constituent shows up for their appointment, service workers can easily check them in on any mobile device using the QR code and add results of tests or supplies they provided.


Case Record
Back at the government department, all tests are tracked with cases. On the case record we can see a 360 degree view of the contact and their case. We can see all the details and take action on the case such as view knowledge articles, collaborate with colleagues, send emails to the contact and more.
All of the screens are fully configurable with the page builder so you can decide what components you want and where you want them to be on the page.


Communication with Constituents
Communications with constituents can be done though most channels directly in the console, no more switching back and forth to different applications. On the case, the agent can email the constituent directly utilising templates that can include default text and pull in information from knowledge articles to keep her informed. The other way to interact with the contact is to post a message to the feed which constituents can access if they have a Community portal login.
Here, the service agent can follow up with the constituents after their test results with key information based on their results.
