Council Meeting Display System

One objective given by the Office of the E-Envoy is to "facilitate participation in the democratic process" - Postfield Systems are here to help you make that happen. We can provide you with a system that will meet the e-Gov challenge!

Our Council Meeting Display System will assist you with achieving two out of three areas of the Government's target of e-enabling every relevant public service by 2005.

"This user-friendly system will enable you to interact with your citizens in an innovative way."
Which two areas does our system cover?
Transforming services - making them easier for the public to access

We can improve your customers' experience, when they visit your council to attend a public meeting, by enabling them to view (on a monitor);

  • When/where meetings are taking place
  • If the meeting has started it will list the current item being discussed (this empowers customers by enabling them to join the meeting when pertinent to them)
  • If a meeting has been adjourned, and the time it will reconvene
  • Other important information (displayed as text or images)

Our system also enables Councillors/staff to have access to this information via the intranet, so they don't even need to leave their desk!

 

Increasing transparency of consultation and decision-making, and finding new ways for citizens to participate.

You can interact with your citizens in an innovative way and take the pressure off your front of house staff.

How does the system work?

  • Room bookings are made through a centralised system.
  • Individual agendas can then be added to each room booking.
  • Once the meeting is taking place the Meeting Clerk advances the 'current agenda' from inside the meeting using a 'hand-held' unit.
  • This immediately updates the information on the screens, which are displayed within your council.

This system is user-friendly and can be adapted to suit your individual requirements. From our extensive experience of dealing with councils we understand that each has its own requirements.

For example, we can provide you with the flexibility to show multiple displays, so the public can view the current agenda and important messages simultaneously.

How will it benefit you (the council)?

  • Less queries in reception from the public prior to meetings
  • The public can join the meeting(s) only when pertinent to them
  • Display important information immediately
  • Employees can view all the current bookings via the intranet, allowing information to be shared readily

 

Have we installed our system in any councils?

Yes, in Oxfordshire County Council and they are extremely pleased with the results!
