In an age of growing technology, economic liberalization, a booming global investment
environment, LINK Development has met the challenging demand for an urgent improvement
in government services to citizens, businesses, and investors. Trusted by influential
governments in the region in light of our regional presence, elaborate track record,
and experience, we have become trusted technology partners to regional governments,
delivering their e-government projects, and gaining the trust of others to realize
their e-government plans.
At LINK Development, we also recognize the growing hype and pressure from international
agencies and the public regarding transparency, and have thus introduced our Government
Transparency Framework, allowing government agencies to easily adopt and deploy
transparency-endorsing initiatives.

- LINK eGov Gateway
- LINK eGov Services Accelerator
- LINK eGov Agent Management
- (G2C) and (G2B)
Portals
- LINK eGov Correspondence Management System
- Government-to-Employees (G2E) Intranet Portals
- CRM / Inquiries and Complaints Management
LINK eGov Gateway is designed to be the central hub that completely manages the
authentication of users, as well as, transaction routing and tracking between portal
users, whether citizens, businesses, investors, expatriates or employees, and backend
systems at ministries and governmental entities.
Being built on open standards, the Gateway is architected and developed to consume
and expose web services. It integrates with any back-end system and is technology
independent

Online services have become a must for government agencies that want to cut costs,
reduce red-tape, improve efficiencies and enhance citizens’ experience. The ‘LINK
eGov Services Accelerator’ is one that capitalizes on the new Microsoft Office SharePoint
Server 2007, catering to government entities wanting to embrace e-government in
an incremental fashion. It enables such municipalities and agencies to provide services
through the Web with minimal initial investment and faster time to market as a first
step implementation that is both scalable and cost-effective. Part of the solution
is the back end management intranet including workspaces through which government
employees are able to fulfill citizen requests.

With the availability of government services online serving citizens, businesses
and investors, the need to cater for agents transacting on behalf of such companies
and citizens is essential. LINK Development has developed ‘LINK eGov Agent Management’
to enable such differentiation between those transacting on self-serve basis and
others transacting on behalf of third parties (individuals or companies). Management
of agent definition, role definition and agent-authorized services is part of the
system. LINK eGov Agent Management integrated with LINK eGov Services Accelerator
delivers government services online, managed at the back-end and enables government
transactions through citizens, businesses and agents as well

LINK Development has been trusted by leading governments and ministries to develop
their G2B and G2C Internet portals. Managing the content and services in a citizen-centric/business-centric
manner or going the traditional government-centric way, the main challenge is to
ensure services and content are easy to reach by their prospects and users.

Correspondence within one ministry or across multiple government agencies is one
of the most important communication mechanisms. Whether in the form of mail, faxes,
emails or documents – it is vital to maintain them appropriately and in accordance
with government code. Standardizing the way such correspondence is managed, tracked
and saved is what 'LINK eGov Correspondence Management' does.

Increasing the level of communication and collaboration between government employees
has become fundamentally important to deliver better service and increase productivity.
Document sharing & collaboration, business process management, self-service applications,
video conferencing and application integration are some of many features that LINK
Development offers in G2E and G2G portals.

Governments are now focusing on efficient and timely service delivery more than
ever. With the rising population and increasing service expectations, the need to
have a single, comprehensive view of citizens’ correspondence with the government,
history and current issues is a must. Integrating citizens’ data to achieve the
360 view, establishing multi-channel communications while ensuring citizen’s privacy,
enables governments to deliver higher quality service. Responding and resolving
their complaints and problems in a timely and accurate fashion improves citizens’
satisfaction and increases government credibility & trust.

citizens, whether individuals or organizations, and government agencies.
Our e-services have been a testament to our commitment to delivering high quality
services to governments, offering more convenience and efficiency in addition to
enabling better handling of queries by employees and promote greater transparency.

Governments are now focusing on efficient and timely service delivery more than

their complaints and problems in a timely and accurate fashion improves citizens’
satisfaction and increases government credibility & trust.

Governments are now keen on providing as many touch-points with citizens as possible.
Social networks are amongst the most populated of destinations and according to
Gartner will continue to be during the coming couple of years. Accordingly social
media tools such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, to name a few, pose an effective
touch-point with citizens and business.
As one of our many innovations in LINK development we are engaging with Governments
to provide community mobilization solutions that jumpstart government presence on
social networks enabling them to embrace Government 2.0.

While we are very passionate about technology, we also believe that visual design,
information architecture, interaction design, usability engineering are key success
factors in our solutions.
Governments need not only to have an online presence, but also develop an online
brand strategy that is unique and delivers the interaction and experience that is
best suited for their identity, their citizens and business objectives.

With governments launching new services user requests, problems & complaints, data
grows exponentially. Decision makers need effective data presentations to be able
to identify trends, understand relationships through visual data analysis.
Our Dashboards are a customizable, flexible and extensible solution. Data visualization
and data analysis enables more effective decision making and better alignment between
service providers and users.
Through real-time reports, insightful statistics, charts and performance indicators,
executives and employees are jointly more likely to recognize potential opportunities
and areas for improvement in order to proactively take appropriate action, thus
improving communication of goals, strategies and indorsing government transparency.

Within the governments, internal communications are core for delivering citizen
and business services. Bridging the digital divide between legacy telecommunication
systems and computing systems, through using our Unified Communications solutions,
significantly impacts the efficiency and timely response of governments in delivering
their services and responding to citizens and business needs.
With Unified Communication all the above is possible and most importantly without
any rip and repair, through leveraging your existing infrastructure and keeping
your PSTN and IP networks as they are.
Based on the latest Microsoft technologies, our solution is software-based, helping
governments stay flexible and capable of adapting to change as it happens.
