  • The need and desire for civic and government agencies to be intricately connected to its people is growing rapidly thanks to the development of online initiatives like e-Democracy, Gov. 2.0, and the Open Government Initiative. The ability now for governments to connect with people is becoming a reality to cities, towns, and communities everywhere.
  • The growth of civic connectedness stems from a need for:
  • More efficient and timely communication between levels of government...
  • Better accessibility between agencies and between citizens and government...
  • Transparency...
  • Improved response times...
  • Community involvement...
  • Sources or information and feedback...
  • EverythingCivic.com (alias ‘EC’) is also able to provide mobile & cloud-based software services to all government organizations and municipal corporations. EC provides government agencies with the capability to gather, track, analyze, store and publish civic-related data and information in real-time. The collection of this data can then be used to encourage citizens, government agencies, community groups, media and civic organizations to work together to stabilize, improve, maintain, grow and take pride in their community.
  • Among many solutions at EC is our SmartCity311 mobile application, which is a city branded mobile & cloud-based system, based on the Open311 protocols that citizens can use to report their non-emergency civic issues to government.
  • Examples of our such apps are Ahmedabad-311, Bhavnagar-311, Karnali-311 and Varanasi-311 just to name a few. The purpose of these applications is to be able to quickly and efficiently communicate civic issues and to promote civic participation in any number of non-emergency situations by voting, commenting and following an issue.
  • Our SmartCity-311 Application is also very well adopted and accepted by several municipal corporations and government agencies for Field Work Inspection and Field Work Monitoring.
