Local government

Engage and connect your communities with our solutions for local government.

Engage, connect, and involve your communities.

Datacom works with councils and agencies to enable connection and engagement with their communities. Our Datascape solution helps local government transform community engagement and ensure you get better access to information, facilities and services.

Our Datascape solution puts the customer view first. It can consume information from other systems in order to provide a 360-degree view and a single place to go. Local government wants to engage with communities in new and innovative ways. 

The community can be digitally involved with the services council offers, making the experience feel tailored to them. They can make online payments, view availability, and book community facilities. It enables two-way communication straight to their iOS or Android device. Our tools also allow local government to place a council-created form/process into a shared library, effectively allowing councils to crowd source from other councils, giving them access to already proven processes.

Our solutions are built for the local government sector by people who have worked within and alongside local government for many years. Our tools are always up to date, run on highly available cloud infrastructure, and are designed for the end-user making it cost effective for local government.
