Suffolk Police
Police Direct™, a high volume, hi-tech public messaging service provided by HTK to Suffolk Constabulary achieved efficiency savings of 10% and cost savings of £60k per year by sending information efficiently to members of the public through email, SMS text messaging and recorded voice telephone messaging.
"Police Direct™ allows us to use the public as our eyes and ears to prevent crime from occurring, and also to try and detect crimes. We use the service in day to day policing, firstly as a way to identify crime trends, and secondly to send out messages to registered members of the public."
Chief Inspector Adrian Dawson, Head of Operations Communications
Birmingham City Council
Birmingham Resilience Team needed a tool to communicate effectively and dynamically with City Council staff and local communities. They had a system in place for messaging to contacts within Birmingham City Council, but needed something that could manage these better and that could be expanded into community based messaging.
The team had a clear vision of what was required. They wanted a tool that could more intelligently manage their database of contacts. They wanted to be able to group them in different ways, doing things dynamically and working with maps and locations to provide geographically targeted messages.
"Horizon is helping to improve resilience in a number of ways. It's allowing us to be a lot smarter in the way we communicate both internally and with our diverse and complex communities."
