Work Tray
- Improve customer service
- Lower process costs for high volume processes
- Enhance control or governance for critical proceses
What is Workflow
Housing manages and displays information to users, but it is the users themselves - with very few exceptions - who must look for outstanding work, organise and prioritise their work and ensure that deadlines to deliver services to tenants are met.
With workflow in place, the system has a much greater knowledge about how services are delivered, using a diagrammatic process map. Workflow will provide these maps or license customers to produce their own processes.
Work Tray
All work in Housing modules is collated and prioritised into a single screen in Work Tray. The allocation of work and the transfer of work between staff can be automated. This speeds up the passing of work between staff and reduces the overall time taken to deliver a service; promoting teamwork and reducing departmental barriers. Rather than users having to find work, the system presents work to the user in the form of a 'work tray'.
