The opportunity

People may not know which department owns a request or which information they need to provide. Repeated transfers and incomplete enquiries make the service journey difficult for residents and staff.

How it works

  1. 01

    Understand the service enquiry and identify the relevant approved guidance.

  2. 02

    Explain the available routes and the information each process requires.

  3. 03

    Prepare a structured request or direct the person to self-service.

  4. 04

    Hand over unresolved cases with the conversation and supporting context.

What it needs

  • Public-service directory and guidance
  • Resident enquiry and permitted case information
  • Routing rules and contact arrangements

What it produces

  • Clear service guidance
  • Structured request or referral
  • Context for the receiving team

Where people decide

Public-service staff make eligibility and case decisions and handle enquiries that require judgement or exceptions.

Example application

A local authority helps a resident find the appropriate housing service, prepare the required information and reach the team responsible for the next step.

What to measure

Evaluation measures to agree before release, not achieved results.

  • Correct routing at first handover
  • Repeat-contact rate for the same enquiry
