Most organisations that are controlled by the government provide services to their citizens. Whilst many of these services are there for the benefit of the people and are often free, there is still an obligation for them to be undertaken efficiently, accurately, and without mistakes.
There are 3 key reasons why councils and other entities in the public sector should seriously consider incorporating rebate management solutions into their operations to ensure that tasks are completed correctly and in a timely fashion.
Compliance
Alongside regular compliance training of staff, internal audits, and reviews, councils and other organisations in the public sector should seriously consider using rebate management solutions. Any institution in the public sector reports to a country’s government and its citizens, it is obligated to abide by compliance regulations for the sake of transparency and good governance. e-bate’s rebate management solution automates the entire rebate process and gives users 360 visibility, guaranteeing that pivotal actions such as claims and payments are not missed. A digitised, automated rebate process also ensures all relevant personnel are aware of all the details using individual custom log ins, meaning nobody is in the dark when it comes to even the smallest of details of the rebate process. This all gives partners the confidence that their rebates are performing according to their targets, and that any issues will be flagged immediately. With the most advanced rebate management technology in place, public service departments can remove any human error so that any calculations and contract creation will be completed with no problems!
Cost Saving
The public sector is a vital part of any nation’s infrastructure, but it is costly – not just in the financial aspect, but also in terms of time and labour. Councils and other public sector institutions are funded by both taxes and government departmental funding, so it is really important that if there is a viable option to reduce the costs of specific tasks, they should be seriously considered.
Financially, integrating a management system for rebates can help cut costs for any organisation, including councils. This is because inefficiencies in rebate practices may result in a cost. Not only can a single decimal point error in a spreadsheet of rebate numbers cause a huge cost error, any mistakes made during the rebate process will have a financial impact in terms of time, as tasks will have to be repeated and may lead to targets being missed.
Our rebate management solution, e-bate increases accuracy, ensures you hot deadlines, and is hassle-free. This is because once you’ve set them up with e-bate, your rebates will run automatically, optimising the efficiency of rebate operations. This means that instead of spending time worrying about managing rebate calculations, the workforce can be completing other tasks, improving the efficiency of the department.
Accountability
The public sector must be accountable for every process that occurs. Rebates are no different. The e-bate application is hosted on Microsoft Azure in a multi-tenancy cloud environment with different client databases to ensure that client data is protected and shielded from attacks and vulnerabilities.
Additionally, as a SaaS solution, continuous improvements are being made within e-bate at no extra cost to existing clients, making sure that their rebate process is carried out in the most efficient way possible, with no errors. This means that any public service that uses our rebate management solution can guarantee that the service they are providing will be exemplary for the public.
