Asidua Secure Place On LGSAS Framework
Online, October 20, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Building on recent successes, contact management and integration specialists Asidua, has today announced their successful placement onto the new Local Government Software Application Solutions (LGSAS) framework.
Set up by Government Procurement Service, the LGSAS framework provides local government organisations with a means of procuring a range of sector-specific software and services solutions.
As a key IT services provider to the local government sector, Asidua were keen "to give customers the increased visibility and added security that the Government Procurements Service LGSAS framework provides," said Bob McClean, Sales and Marketing Director at Asidua.
Following their response to an Invitation to Tender from the Government Procurement Service, Asidua was successfully placed onto 4 LGSAS framework lots - Management & Finance (Lot 1: Revenue, Benefits and Finance Software Application Solutions & Lot 2: Performance Management, Planning and Decision Making Software Application Solutions) & Environment & Public Protection (Lot 8: Waste and Environmental Health Software Application Solutions & Lot 9: Highways and Transport Software Application Solutions).
As a result of their successful placement, Asidua's key local government IT service offering - Customer Contact Platform (CCP) - can now be procured directly via the new LGSAS framework.
Built using the latest Microsoft technologies, the Asidua Customer Contact Platform makes it easier for local authorities to improve customer contact, promote channel shift, maximise one-and-done, minimise avoidable contact and ensure that services are delivered effectively, reliably and with minimal effort.
"Having successfully engaged with a number of local authorities including Chorley, South Gloucestershire and the London Borough of Harrow, the placement of CCP onto to the Government Procurement Service LGSAS framework represents a further significant achievement for Asidua," continued Bob.
"We feel that this placement is testament to Asidua providing cost effective services at a time when local government is facing difficult financial pressures."
Bob went on to conclude: "Today as a Government Procurement Service LGSAS framework supplier, Asidua look forward to developing new partnerships to help local government meet these challenges."
