Korbitec GhostConvey has finalised an agreement with the leading provider of municipal switching services, Streamline Solutions, to directly switch rates enquiry and clearance certificate transactions on behalf of its customers with the City Of Cape Town.

The new partnership between Korbitec GhostConvey and Streamline Solutions, whilst ensuring existing operations continue uninterrupted, will focus on improving the current service offering while exploring new and exciting opportunities to further extend its footprint.

Says Hirschberg: "Our account managers fulfil the essential task of providing seamless service engagement between attorneys (and other end users) and municipal councils. We believe that a focussed approach through dedicated, personal interaction with end users, is key in ensuring a better experience for all parties."
