CONTENT
The CCRS (Comprehensive Complaint Redressal System) is a web based enterprise solution that allows Municipal Corporation to enhance citizen satisfaction through comprehensive service management and efficient service delivery.
 
CCRS automates entire complaint process right from registration to closure. It also enforces service level policies to ensure the complaint gets attended by right department, within desired timeline and gets escalated to higher authorities for their attention and intervention, on non-compliance of service level / quality. Once a complaint is registered with the system, it is assigned to a concerned area officer dealing with the reported problem. The system automatically sends an SMS to officer alerting him on the complaint for taking required actions.
 
The officer is expected to resolve the complaint within a specified period. Once a complaint is resolved, the officer marks the complaint closed in the system. The citizen receives an SMS confirming resolution of the complaint. If the citizen is not satisfied; he/she can request to re-open the complaint, which then escalates to the higher authority.
