Website Enhancements - Continuing to build on the past success of our<br />

website, www.dcwasa.com. we implemented multiple enhancements<br />

during <strong>FY</strong> 2009. Through our continuous website improvement cycle, a<br />

new general site design structure went live on January 5, 2009, which<br />

provides visitors streamlined access to information regarding <strong>DC</strong> WASA.<br />

These improvements have generated an extremely positive response from<br />

our website audience. Additional improvements included an Avatar-based<br />

Bill Tour, Board of Directors meeting live-video streaming <strong>and</strong> an<br />

Impervious Area Surface Charge Calculator. Continuing with the website<br />

improvement life cycle during <strong>FY</strong> <strong>2010</strong>, the Authority will implement<br />

additional customer outreach functionality, including online permit status<br />

updates, a <strong>Water</strong> Quality Avatar Tour, a General Manager live 'chat'<br />

feature, Board of Directors (BOD) Strategic Plan e-scorecard, <strong>and</strong> e-Board<br />

room as part of our green initiatives.<br />

I nteractive Voice Response - <strong>DC</strong> WASA's enhanced interactive voice response system (IVR) provides our customers with multiple<br />

tools related to communication with the Authority, including the ability to pay their bill or report a problem. In <strong>FY</strong> 2009, the IVR<br />

system was enhanced to support recently implemented Impervious Area Surface Charges, providing an expedited path for<br />

communication related to these inquiries <strong>and</strong> an automated set of Frequently Asked Questions, to resolve any inquiries in an efficient<br />

manner. IVR also implemented a customer service survey <strong>and</strong> an outgoing call campaign to inform targeted customers of the need<br />

to implement Automated Meter Reading functionality at their premise. During <strong>FY</strong> <strong>2010</strong>, enhancements to the IVR will include<br />

interfacing with the <strong>DC</strong> WASA Voice Over Internet Protocol to improve Customer Service processes <strong>and</strong> reporting, as well as an<br />

outgoing call campaign for customers impacted by lead service line replacements, reminding them about the service <strong>and</strong> to flush<br />

their lines.<br />

Total Enterprise Asset Management System (TEAMS-Maximo) - During <strong>FY</strong> 2009, we committed a substantial amount of time<br />

<strong>and</strong> effort to upgrading TEAMS-Maximo to the most current version. This is set to "go-live" sometime in early <strong>FY</strong> <strong>2010</strong> <strong>and</strong> will<br />

provide <strong>DC</strong> WASA with much more flexibility to support asset <strong>and</strong> work management needs, provide a much better platform for<br />

integrating with other programs <strong>and</strong> allow for substantially better integration between Maximo <strong>and</strong> GIS. All of these improvements<br />

will help <strong>DC</strong> WASA staff to more effectively plan <strong>and</strong> execute work.<br />
