Welcome to the opening episode of the 2024 Digital Government Excellence Symposium! You have now joined a nationwide thought leadership forum on how technology can help advance digital government service delivery and empower governments to create resident-centric products that drive trust, promote adoption, and hedge for the future.
While today most state and local government agencies offer at least some digital services and online payments, not everyone has seen the business impact of these investments. Siloed digital solutions, lackluster resident adoption, and continued support call volume have prevented government agencies from achieving the resident satisfaction and operational efficiency gains they had hoped to see.
It's time to rethink the customer experience in government and move into the emerging digital-first era. Let's start a conversation around what drives end-user confidence, adoption, and re-use of digital channels— and what government agencies can do to accelerate this shift.
