City of Mitcham strikes new partnership with TechnologyOne

Announcement posted by TechnologyOne 15 Mar 2018

BRISBANE, 15 March 2018 – TechnologyOne (ASX-TNE) today announced details of its new partnership with South Australia’s City of Mitcham and revealed the Council’s transformational shift towards improved customer experience.

The local government authority has implemented TechnologyOne’s enterprise solution, built specifically for the local government sector, to deliver a whole of organisation solution that replaces paper-based work orders with smart mobile devices and productivity and efficiency gains previously not possible. The Council’s customers have gained greater visibility into the status and progress of their requests, driving an improvement in overall customer experience.

City of Mitcham’s Chief Executive Officer Matt Pears said one of its key business goals is to constantly improve the way it does business for its community.

“To deliver efficiencies and better meet the needs of our customer, we needed a system that would provide a foundation from which we could build from,” Mr Pears said.

“This technological transformation allowed our business to work together to centralise systems, processes and data to improve our key processes across the organisation.

“It has fostered the development of a strong culture focused on improving customer service within the organisation. This is a crucial step in our journey to continually drive change and improve customer service.”

Chief Executive Officer Edward Chung said TechnologyOne’s deep understanding of the local government sector enables it to focus on transforming both its customer’s experience, and that of its “customer’s customer”.

“We want to empower Councils to enhance their customers’ experience,” Mr Chung said. “By partnering with us, our customers can focus on delivering services to the community, rather than the supporting technology.”

Mr Pears added that the partnership with TechnologyOne will play an important part in its organisational shift towards customer centricity and digital transformation. 

“We certainly wanted to choose software that would be able to meet our future direction. Whether that’s in two years, five years or ten years, we wanted to partner with a software provider that would be able to meet that digital future,” he said. 

“One of the key things for us is the partnership approach we’ve taken with TechnologyOne. That collaborative approach and close working relationship has been critical to our success so far.”

Mr Chung said TechnologyOne’s Power of One philosophy enables it to take a true partnership approach, by taking accountability for “everything”.

“This project exemplifies collaboration at its best. We were able to pull together a complex solution which met Council’s expectations and delivered on budget,” Mr Chung said.

“Our consulting offering is a key differentiator for us in the local government space. Through more than 17 years’ dominance in the sector, customers benefit from our consultants’ in-depth knowledge, customised training and deep industry engagement.

“We provide an end-to-end solution, encompassing not just software, but the infrastructure, security and services to guarantee our customers’ long-term success,” said Mr Chung.
