Description

Designing and implementing the digital architecture across levels of government is a herculean task. As governments embark in their digital journey, they need mitigate these risks and manage digitalization in a way that it serves its citizens. That is why this book couldn't be more timely.-- Romina Bandura, Senior Fellow, Center for Strategic and International Studies

Effecting every sector and country in the world, digital technology is changing the way citizens engage in society, companies conduct business, and governments deliver public services. The Covid-19 pandemic accelerated the pace of digitalization and exposed such vulnerabilities as inadequate infrastructure, weak regulations, and a scarcity of skilled professionals capable of digitally transforming government. Not immune to the digital revolution, governments are slowly adapting to a digital world. Governments are implementing digital solutions to deliver services to their citizens, make payments and engage the public. A range of public services from tax collection to welfare distribution and voting, are benefitting from digitalization

Focusing on how government can transition more effectively through digital transformation, Pivoting Government Through Digital Transformation covers the following key components:
