In today’s connected world, citizens expect more from public sectorservices than ever before. They want:

• Fast responses.

• Consistent answers.

• Seamless handovers between departments.

And they expect to receive that level of service whether they’recontacting a government department by phone, email, web chat, or even in personat a service counter.

• Calls bounce between departments before reaching the right person.

• Citizens must repeat the same information multiple times.

• Agents lack visibility into the full history of a case, making it difficult to provide accurate, timely responses.

These gaps frustrate citizens, slow down service delivery, increase operational costs, and—over time—erode public trust.

The good news: There’s a proven way to fix it.

With Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Service, public sector contact centers can unify their data, streamline their workflows, and give every agent the tools to deliver faster, more consistent service. And with NKUSI-IT as your Microsoft partner, that transformation can happen smoothly and with measurable impact.

The Impact: Real Results from Public Sector Contact Centers

Government departments using Dynamics 365 for contact center operations have reported:

• Up to 40% improvement in first-call resolution — Citizens get the answers they need on the first interaction.

• 360°citizen visibility across all touch points — Every call, email, and case note is tied to one record.

• Reduced duplication and handovers between departments — Eliminating wasted time and repeated work.

These results aren’t accidental—they’re the direct outcome of having an integrated technology platform configured for the unique needs and compliance requirements of public sector service delivery.

Why Public Sector Contact Centers Struggle

When citizens interact with government agencies, they might:

• Submit a form online.

• Follow up with a phone call to check progress.

• Get transferred to another department for specialist review.

Without a connected system:

• Data lives in silos. Agents search across multiple systems to piece together the fullpicture.Power Automate routes requests instantly to the right person, with clear deadlines

• There’s no single citizen record. Separate interactions aren’t linked, soagents lack context.

• Service quality varies. Depending on which database an agent checks, they might give adifferent answer than the last person.

The result? Longer handle times, inconsistent communication, and lower citizen satisfaction.

How Dynamics 365 Brings Omnichannel Clarity

Dynamics 365 Customer Service solves these problems by providing a single, connected platform for all citizen interactions—no matter the channel.

Here’s how:

• Lead Scoring & Routing: Urgent opportunities are flagged and assigned instantly.

• Follow-Up Reminders: The system creates tasks automatically, so no lead is forgotten.

• Linked Communication History: Emails, calls, and meetings are logged toone record, so handovers are seamless.

Example:

When a tender inquiry comes in, Dynamics 365 instantly alerts the account manager, assigns a follow-up within 24 hours, and logs the conversation—ensuring the lead stays warm.

When a citizen calls about their housing application, the agent can check its status and update notes in the same screen, avoiding “I’ll need to call you back” delays.

Example: From Chaos to Clarity in a Provincial Service Centre

Before Dynamics 365:

• A citizen calls about a housing application.

• The call is transferred twice because initial agents can’t see the application details.

• The final agent promises to follow up after checking with another department—delaying resolution by three days.

After Dynamics 365 with NKUSI-IT:

• The first agent opens the citizen’s record and sees the housing application status, related correspondence, and assigned caseworker.

• Using the integrated knowledge base, they answer all questions on thespot and update the case record.

• The enquiry is resolved in a single call.
