SYDNEY, Feb. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --

Soprano Design (https://www.sopranodesign.com/company/about/), a global leader

Government communication solution tuned specifically to meet the needs of large 
government messaging and capable of spanning across multiple government 
departments and agencies to become the platform of choice.

The Australia-hosted platform is dedicated for government communications and 
will be available to Australia government agencies starting March 1, with plans 
to expand hosting into select countries globally during 2021.

For the first time, governments can consolidate their existing G2C 
(government-to-citizen) services onto a single communications platform to 
better engage with their citizens.

"As governments increasingly compete for citizen's attention and trust, there's 
an increasingly pressing need for siloed government departments to band 
together to leverage more powerful communication technology, allowing them to 
roll out more engaging programs and to communicate in ways that build trust," 
said Dr. Richard Favero, CEO and Chairman at Soprano. "This is truly the next 
frontier in government communications, because as citizens, we want to be 
engaged with our government and we increasingly expect our government services 
to provide us with more thoughtful and trustworthy information. Enterprises 
already know that mobile messaging now offers powerful interactive ways of 
building this trust, and we're grateful we can begin to help governments with 
their mission to engage in meaningful ways with citizens."

Additional solution features include:

Available on the Australian Digital Marketplace – making it convenient for 
organizations to begin including sophisticated communications in their digital 
transformation process 
Capabilities for the entire government body or on a dedicated individual 
department basis 
Expertly secured and capable of being locally hosted for each corresponding 
government 
A vast menu of off-the-shelf internal communications and intra-department 
applications, including a secure IP messaging capability with encryption and 
Common Criteria certification

The past year has made government officials worldwide acutely aware how every 
branch of their organization needs to send trusted communications as emergency 
scenarios of 2020 disrupted the status quo of proper and effective messaging. 
Given the shift of accelerated digital transformation in this sector, 
governments are reassessing how they can utilize common communication channels 
such as SMS, voice, email, WhatsApp and RCS to inform citizens regarding 
important announcements, daily appointments and reminders. This digital 
transformation pushes the confines and limitations of traditional approaches by 
government communication.

Soprano is a global enabler of government services worldwide and already powers 
some of the world's largest government organizations' communications needs. 
Soprano's expansive services include integrating with applications commonly 
used in social services, tax, voting and tax organisations but also with postal 
services, utilities, healthcare and mental health services, education programs, 
tourism, and more. Specific government services enabled by Soprano depend on 
the region needs.

Soprano's omnichannel enterprise mobile messaging platform helps government 
agencies around the world. The platform's omnichannel capabilities give 
governments the ability to transform the way they interact and reach 
communities across all departments such as finance, transportation, public 
health, education and security. 

The platform also offers a powerful secure IP messaging capability that can 
integrate with government services, allowing organizations to offer G2C secure 
mobile messaging in adherence with applicable compliance laws.

Soprano's trusted mobile communication platform adheres to recommended best 
practices to provide a secure mobile messaging solution that can become part of 
a proactive IT security program, designed to minimise the risks and costs 
associated with service disruptions.
