The Community Connect Real-Time Intelligent Platform leverages core IBM technologies to provide an exceptional social experience for a community, its citizens or members, and city or organizational leadership.

Element Blue has created a robust enterprise-class solution that will allow for the delivery of an engaging web experience with real-time information to residents, developers, and retail & commercial operators within the community and beyond.

The platform is a full-featured enterprise system that provides immediate initial value; while allowing for long term growth, providing a base from which to expand and develop additional capability, and allowing you to meet future user and community needs.

The platform is designed to allow City or Community leaders, Campuses, Developers, REIT’s, Commercial Industries, and Resorts to leverage information; across multiple agencies, departments, or system domains. This provides the tools needed by stakeholders to make smarter decisions, anticipate problems, and minimize the impact of disruptions to available services and operations. Community Connect will effectively allow for the coordination of cross-agency resources to respond to issues rapidly and effectively.

Community Connect helps city leaders and the community:
