01 / The challenge
Start with the work,
not a feature list.
Residents may not know which service handles a missed bin, pothole, rates question or animal registration. Staff need the enquiry context without implying the assistant can access private accounts or submit official requests.
Residents often begin with a question rather than a service name. A missed bin, pothole, rates enquiry or animal registration can lead to different information and staff teams. This example council concept explores service navigation and useful handover context. It does not represent private-account access, official request submission or a live council-system integration.
02 / The approach
Council service-navigation AI concept
- 01Resident enquiry
- 02Identify service
- 03Provide relevant guidance
- 04Collect handover context
- 05Staff handover
Proposed process visual — not a deployed customer workflow.
Identify the service category from the resident’s enquiry. Route to relevant guidance without implying the assistant can access private rates or registration records.
Provide a clear next step for common questions. The concept distinguishes general service information from actions that require an authorised council process.
Prepare context for staff handover where needed. Any future authenticated access or official submission capability would require separate scope, security review and approval.
03 / Potential impact · Not delivered results
Help residents reach relevant information and give staff better context when a handover is needed.
Guide common enquiries
Illustrate missed-bin information, pothole reporting guidance, rates enquiry routing and animal-registration next steps.
Distinguish guidance from access
Service navigation is not authenticated account access or actual submission into council systems. Those capabilities require separate scope and approval.
What to measure next.
These are review questions for evaluating the workflow, not achieved KPIs. Baselines and measured outcomes have not been supplied for publication.
- Service routing
- Does the resident reach the relevant service information?
- Action clarity
- Is guidance clearly distinguished from an official submission?
- Staff handover
- Does the handover preserve the enquiry context staff need?
