4. Integrating with systems

Our software integrates seamlessly with existing back-office systems, ensuring efficient data exchange and smooth processing of requests. This means less manual input and less potential for errors, resulting in more streamlined and efficient service delivery. Integrations with and between our software are based on the standard interfaces known to provinces, from Standard Exchange Formats and messages to APIs that have been established.

Digital services are more than just an online intake with a resident and business owner. Digital service is the chain from intake to processing, without having to manually enter things and asking a resident or business owner for information that the government already has. 

What if a resident can't figure it out in the digital service process?

Shift2 stands for contact and connecting, so we offer solutions for this as well. For example, we offer a Customer Contact System, which KCS teams deploy as a support tool to directly engage residents who contact them by phone. Smart integrations with a PDC and other web content are readily available. Should the KCS team not be able to help a resident directly in the first line, transfer or call back is initiated in the second line. Thus, our KCS solution is the extension of digital services.
