City of Seattle

Partnering with the City of Seattle, Washington’s Information Technology Department, on behalf of Seattle Public Utilities, Seattle City Light, and their Utility Assistance Programs (UAPs), TEAM IM was ready to continue our involvement supporting the assistance application program. The City Government of Seattle employs approximately 10,000 people, and City IT is responsible for over 900 individual applications.

 

Background

The City of Seattle offers special rates or limited grants to citizens that are struggling to pay their utility bills. These assistance programs are funded by the city and by generous citizens who choose to add additional payments on their own utility bills. After TEAM IM's involvement in developing and releasing the UAP application, our continued involvement and expertise was requested.
