Sacramento California, August 26, 2015 - SP Marketplace (www.spmarketplace.com), the leader in Office 365 and SharePoint business portals and applications, announced SP Gov Suite for small- to medium-size cities and counties (SMC). SP Gov is a complete suite of application templates built on Office 365 that transforms local government by leveraging cloud-based solutions to improve and automate citizen services, employee self-service and community collaboration.
The SP Gov Suite offering allows cities and counties to transform from traditional siloed department culture with disparate technology to an innovative ecosystem to strengthen citizen engagement, optimize infrastructure and improve productivity.
With little to no infrastructure investment, a local government organization can add a citizen services structure across departments, create an employee services hub with an Intranet structure and drive collaboration with community portals for boards, committees and commissions. As a result, the Office 365 Ecosystem is within financial reach of cities and counties that want to evolve to strengthen citizen engagement, increase accessible and responsive city services, and optimize infrastructure and improve productivity.
A Next Generation Solution
With SP Gov Suite, small- to medium-size cities and counties now can optimize operational processes, manage program information, and drive citizen satisfaction by leveraging the full power of Office 365 and SharePoint.
“SP Gov Suite helps local government do NEW with less so they can stay under budget while offering enhanced services,” said Darrell Trimble, CEO of SP Marketplace. “Now cities and counties can cost effectively evolve to more modern systems, embrace cloud technology and transition from a department-centric strategy to a citizen-centric strategy.”
SP Gov Suite is made up of three essential packages that address key areas of local government:
Citizen Services Application – Goes beyond a basic 311 system to provide an integrated citizen services system that includes intuitive web and mobile forms
Employee Services Suite – A full featured Intranet portal and self-service structure empowers employees to be more self-sufficient by providing a central location for employee documents, access to services and communication
Community Portals – Turns Microsoft SharePoint and Office 365 into a portal for boards of directors, councils, committees and commissions
“Cities and counties that want to take the first step in modernizing their technology infrastructures will find SP Gov Suite’s intuitive interface, reasonable cost, and scalability with existing systems refreshing,” Trimble said.
Comparable products can run upwards of tens of thousands of dollars, which are out of financial reach for small and medium cities but SP Gov Suite starts at just under $10,000. City and county customers can purchase individual packages or purchase an entire suite.
