Overall, the use of digital twins in public sector operations can streamline process efficiencies, reduce operational costs, and improve service delivery to citizens.
All modern organizations, including state and local governmentagencies, have data platforms to house, transfer, modify and manage their digital information. Implementing a modern data platform — one that is cloud-based, sustainable, flexible and scalable — can improve operational efficiency and resilience.
By defining a set of normal user and network behaviors, organizations can establish a baseline for operations that are both compliant and consistent. Before governmentagencies can pinpoint which are which, they need the ability to reliably find and identify out-of-the-ordinary processes. The challenge?
It enables governmentagencies, educational institutions, and healthcare providers to modernize their IT infrastructure while adhering to strict data sovereignty, security, and compliance requirements. Implement constraints and quotas for each consumer account to prevent a single consumer from monopolizing available capacity.
Given the external environment, governmentagencies in particular need reliable continuity plans in the event of an attack. In fact, two policy directives were recently issued to ensure that government entities can continue to operate. governmentagency is expected to have a Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) in place.
Peraton, an AWS Premier Partner , has worked with multiple governmentagencies to improve both customer and agent experiences using Amazon Connect. This speed of implementation is critical for Peraton, who sets up contact centers for multiple governmentagencies.
As Australia moves forward with its National framework for the assurance of artificial intelligence in government , Amazon Web Services (AWS) is committed to helping our customers implement AI solutions that align with Australia’s AI Ethics Principles.
In an effort to improve efficiency while addressing challenges like workforce adaption and data privacy, Georgias state and local agencies are rapidly integrating AI and GenAI into their IT modernization efforts. Here we explore the AI challenges state and local agencies face and six best practices to guide government AI adoption strategies.
This team should set clear goals, measure success, establish governance principles, incentivize participation, and provide training and support to the government departments: Builds, owns, and operates the cross-government data access platform, as well as recommends additional integrated components.
Building secure IT systems Traceability is an important component in ensuring the security of systems and is often required by many government organizations. This is in contrast to a document-based implementation where this kind of cybersecurity information is typically lost and not preserved.
A Gartner study predicts that by 2026, more than 70% of governmentagencies will employ AI to augment human decision-making, marking a significant turn towards automation from 35% in 2022 to more than 70% by 2026. Automated document processing systems, as those implemented in Tarrant County, Texas , and Palm Beach County, Fla.,
Governments worldwide dedicate a significant portion of their IT budget to maintaining legacy technology systems. This can pose security and operational continuity challenges and governments seek to address this challenge. Implementing these changes can impact their systems and lead to the accumulation of technical debt.
Since HSD’s contact centers all operated from centralized locations, that meant nobody would be around to answer the phone when residents called. A basic Connect implementation addressed New Mexico’s immediate COVID pain points, but the HSD team didn’t stop with the basics. We were able to move to AWS, to Connect, basically overnight.
Our goal is to expedite the digital evolution of public services and safeguard governmentoperations through cloud computing technology. To help provincial and municipal governmentsimplement cloud-based cybersecurity solutions, AWS is investing $5 million CAD in AWS credits to new and existing AWS customers.

Standing up new IT infrastructure on the foundation of an old one can create implementation and innovation challenges. But it also gives governmentagencies the unique opportunity to critically evaluate legacy tech and build on the existing technical frameworks that allow them to effectively carry out their missions.
They apply that frugal approach to IT: they build and operate only what they need to pursue their mission, and constantly innovate both to meet mission objectives and optimize cost. They often rely on donor and grant funding, so they have to justify every expense to their constituents. Going over budget is not an option.
