This includes; * Complaints, Compliments and Comments * Local Ombudsman Complaints (LGO) * Freedom of Information Requests * Environmental Information Regulations * Subject Access Requests/Data Protection Act The solution will allow the logging of feedback relating to Services, Staff or Policy which will take the form of Compliments, Comments or Complaints, Requests for Information and LGO complaints. The solution will provide an end to end process that will incorporate receipt through to final response/outcome. The solution provided will supply the reports to enable KCC to measure performance, identify trends and allow KCC to learn across all Directorates, what the customer is telling us.
