Public Sector & e-Government
Mobifi provides a range of SMS messaging solutions and services which can meet the requirements for Implementing Electronic Government (IEG) and achieve the priority outcomes targets as defined by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM).
Our flexible, efficient and cost-effective solutions are currently deployed by a number of local authorities and public sector organisations that have chosen Mobifi as their preferred SMS messaging services provider.
There are many scenarios where SMS messaging can be deployed by local authorities and public sector organisations and we have highlighted the main ones as follows:

- Sending SMS information or bulletins to staff and citizens
- Enabling the flow of information to mobile users
- Sending SMS in emergency situations (flood warnings, etc)
- Involving younger citizens in community projects
- Confirmation of appointments or events by SMS
- Reducing costs by sending SMS instead of calling mobile phones - SMS Calculator
- Housing - contacting residents, maintenance engineers
- Social Services - contact representatives
- Education - broadcast alerts of closures, incidents, contacting supply teachers/staff
Inbound SMS (Mobile Originated/MT)
- Providing citizens with the option to enquire about/request information via SMS
- Enabling SMS voting or requesting citizen opinion
