Associate an agency location to a Public Service definition

Associate your government service agency locations with a service definition using the Public Sector Digital Services (PSDS) application. With this association, your government service agency staff can address constituent requests for documents, records, or services that are offered at a particular agency location, and can raise a case on behalf of a constituent or business.

About this task

An agency location can have multiple public services associated with it. This can include 311 service or maintenance requests, federal or state public records requests, or requests for license and permit services. For example, a specific agency location can offer an application for food stamps or medical assistance, but not an application for a CDL license or a commercial fishing license. A public service-to-agency-location criteria association can be added to each existing service definition in the Service Organizations offering Service [service_organizations_offering_service] table.
