Situation Prior to Vehicle Blight Solution

The City of San Jose and AST have partnered over the past several years to build a robust 311 system supporting many City services.

The city sought to deliver a better experience to residents and staff for vehicle blight-related service requests. They wanted to streamline service request management for vehicle blight incidents across city departments and provide end-to-end visibility with automated workflows. In addition, the client also asked AST to help develop the following components:

  • A user interface in SJ311 through which citizens can submit requests to address vehicle blight on the Oracle service cloud
  • A robust and scalable “Triage Hub” application within the Department of Housing’s Salesforce instance that will automate the triaging of vehicle blight cases, assign child cases to the correct groups, and update the status and other pertinent information to the record in SJ311
  • A “Triage Hub” application to create tickets and communicate with the applications in the Department of Transportation Salesforce instance
  • MuleSoft integration to support the Triage Hub and current applications, SJ311 and Encampment Management System, and future applications, such as aCode Enforcement Application

The City of San Jose’s vision for the Triage Hub is to integrate it into an existing Salesforce org.
