Digitization has taken the world by storm. It is indeed the new industrial revolution whereby big data accumulation, automation to reduce discrepancies, and building further efficiencies has become the mantra of every industry, every business segment. The onus is heavier on the service sector, where transparency builds trust in the processes and there is a constant competition on the ‘convenience’ and ‘speed’ fronts. Nevertheless, the private entities have been more accepting of these changes, however, there is still a lot to be desired, while the state of affairs of the public service providers paint a drastically different picture.

Law Enforcement Agencies constitute one such division of public services which in spite of their initiatives, hard work, devotion, and even plenty of sacrifices still face a whole plethora of challenges, topmost being their image in the eyes of the general public. There is a huge lack of trust on their capabilities, undying faith about their corruption and the rumor mill of the civilians also adds fuel to the fire. There are many challenges and issues which will not vanish overnight, but through technology implementation, the march towards that direction will begin.


In the service industry, where people are themselves the product and the harnessers of customer service and satisfaction, it is imperative that all client facing people are trained to truly represent the organization, product or brand. Even when this is done quite intricately, it has been observed that it is important to keep an eye on the service levels, the bedside manners, the soft skills, and hard skills being implemented in the desired manner or not. Our observations show that hospital management and airport staff and even banking customer support fall short at times with furious customers launching complaints, tarnishing the prestige on social media, or in worst cases initiating lawsuits. A small lapse in details can become a nightmare, but imagine all the customer-facing people wearing a camera on their suit or uniform will provide blissful heaven for quality assurance personnel. They will be able to implement, check conformance, monitor deviations and devise a flawless plan of action to exceed customer expectations. HR personnel can have a brilliant tool to devise and rate KPIs and eventually appraise people. The people wearing the camera will also give in to the ‘watching eye’ and be on their best behavior saving lots of unnecessary costs to the organization.
