    • Data management refers to the processes and tools used to collect, organize, secure, and use constituent-related data effectively so that government service agent teams can deliver better service experiences. You can give your managers and agents a comprehensive view of constituent data, including constituent details, products and services, assets, service contracts, and entitlements.

    Overview of data management

    Data is the backbone of the Public Sector Digital Services application, connecting constituent, product, service, and team information, giving agents and managers a complete view of every interaction. From constituent profiles and services received to service contracts and entitlements, Public Sector works to bring citizen data together to enable fast resolutions and consistent service support.

    The info-graphic illustrates the public service value chain, highlighting how agencies deliver benefits and services to constituents through different internal and external entities.

    At the core, a service agency can provide both physical and digital products and services. These offerings are delivered through one or more service organizations, each of them containing employees and staff working in user-facing or back-office roles.

    Some service organizations operate with physical, tangible products (for example, fixing a pothole), while others rely on digital products and services (for example, issuing a license or permit). Regardless of format, everything within this chain exists to serve the constituents of the area.

    Data Management acts as the foundation of this value chain, capturing and organizing constituent and business details, including accounts, contacts, consumers, and households, allowing service organizations to personalize interactions, communicate more effectively, and provide faster resolutions. Constituent and business profiles can be linked with products, services, entitlements, and cases, confirming that agents and managers have a 360-degree view of the issue at hand. Data Management links the government agency, its service organization(s), staff, and the constituents they serve through accurate information that powers each stage of service delivery.

    Key elements of data management

    The following key elements form the foundation of effective data management in Public Sector Digital Services:

    Customer data

    Customer data includes information about the constituents and users who are external to your organization, such as names and addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses. Maintaining accurate customer data enables your agents to communicate with constituents quickly and easily.
    • B2B: In the business-to-business (B2B) business model, customer data includes details about accounts and contacts.
    • B2C: In the business-to-consumer (B2C) business model, it includes details about consumers and households.

    To learn more about customer and constituent data, see Customer Data.

    Product data

    This data can include information about products and product models, service catalog items, sold products, install base items (the instance as configured for the user), and installed products. When assisting constituents, your service agents can quickly select the correct product data, add the details to case records, and view related details like knowledge articles and resolved cases.

    Service Model Foundation

    Service Model Foundation refers to a set of pre-designed business and technical data frameworks that helps set up and manage how services are delivered and supported. It provides a standardized way to configure, monitor, and support service requests, applications, cases, and workflows across various business locations or government service organizations.

    Internal user data

Internal users can be grouped into teams and assigned roles to manage cases, resolve issues, and interact with constituents and applicants.
