During SVB’s visit to Sint Maarten, SZV presented key approaches toward developing more digital public services supported by Microsoft Dynamics 365 and other customized applications. Representatives from the Finance & Levy, Registration, and IT departments hosted presentations and demonstrations on the Employer Portal’s functionality and real-time user experience in the portal and dashboards in SZV’s operational environment. Discussions included supporting digital transition factors such as organizational culture change, where SZV takes on a people-centric approach in its change management processes, and online customer support services.
SVB Curacao representatives commented, “The visit served as a fuel of inspiration for us to accelerate our own digital transition journey, fostering mutual growth for our organizations, given our similarities. We commend SZV for the people-centric approach to foster change within the organizational culture, adaptation to new ways of working for their employees, and development of digital public services for their clients”.
