SERVICES
Digital process automation services
Aligned to your goals, we use automation to manage workloads, streamline efficiencies and generate vast savings to aid your digital transformation journey.
Since 2005, we’ve been working with councils to simplify and reduce manual processing in Revenues and Benefits. With resources stretched ever more thinly, we free up valuable time for officers by providing digital process automation as a configurable, off-the-shelf solution which automates the processing and completion of online service requests in accordance with your business rules. We automate the processing of everything, from straight-forward Direct Debits to the most complex Moves Within, Student Discounts and Landlord-notified Tenancy Changes.
We already help over 50 councils to automate over 30 million online Council Tax and Benefits transactions, enabling them to collect over £10 Billion of Council Tax and Business Rates income and manage associated welfare entitlements more efficiently, enhancing the customer experience for householders, landlords, students, and businesses. Our hosted solutions support a single digital experience and join-up back office processes and systems to reduce manual interventions and improve efficiency.
Revenues
Integrating with NEC Revenues & Benefits and Capita R&B systems, webCAPTURE automates the processing of online transactions. There is no need for intervention unless triggered by your business rules, which are configured and controlled by each organisation. Automation removes routine repetitive work, enabling officers with specialist skills to focus on tasks that require their expertise.
Benefits
eCAPTURE Benefits automates time-consuming data capture, validation, checking and cross-checking against existing records. Claim data is cleaned, validated and loaded straight into NEC Revenues & Benefits, Capita or Civica Benefit systems without human intervention, so your assessment officers are presented with cases that are ready for final income verification checks.
Universal Credit
UCDS cleans, matches and verifies daily files of Universal Credit notifications received from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), before importing them into the Benefits system. Pre-assessing the data enables irrelevant or insignificant notifications to be filtered out. So the work presented to Accessors is reduced by up to two-thirds, case histories are no longer cluttered, and any changes to process are now presented to them clearly, concisely and in context.

That is what we help you to do.

Our solutions deliver proven, predictable outcomes and put you in complete control of automation.
