Customer Service and Effective Communication Strategies
What's important to both our staff and our customers?
Communication Sharing and Follow-up
Great news - We, the City of Tampa, are leading the way
in bridging communications between City of Tampa department staff, City
Council members and staff and our Customers through the use of our
web-based and centralized repository, the
TampaGov Customer Service
Center, that offers efficient and centralized management of
communication.
In summary, the system provides the citizen with a way to submit
opinions, problems, and service requests without organizational
knowledge, aids in accountability objectives of the City administration
and helps departments to provide consistent customer responses, to
assess service response times, and to coordinate actions when multiple
agencies are involved.

government services 24/7 that do not require a comprehensive
knowledge of the organization
