This document discusses Service SA's channel management strategies from 2010-2011. It provides statistics on transactions and revenue collected through different channels like over-the-counter, online, and contact center. It shows that over-the-counter transactions made up 60% of transactions but online transactions contributed to more revenue. Initiatives like eliminating registration labels and promoting online services led to a 16.7% reduction in counter transactions and 14.8% increase in online transactions. Future plans include expanding online services, self-service options, and processing efficiencies to further shift transactions to online and self-service channels.
