• Uncertainty: Populations being served are changing

• Doubt: Public sector entities are afraid , just afraid

Cloud, mobile, big data and Web technology adoption is reshaping how public sector entities serve and achieve their missions

“Technology presents many opportunities for us to deliver better services to our citizens. More and more, people want an immediate, specific, casual and personalized service experience. People are looking to technology to find that experience. We, as a government entity, are left trying to understand the demands of a Web 2.0.”

Public sector IT wants to enable, rather than hinder, missions

Business Summary What Respondents Reported

• Economic concerns and recession recovery

• Demographic changes• Budgetary restrictions • Growing security concerns• Emerging IT trends in data

center consolidation and cloud adoption

External forces:

Public sector entities are reacting to economic and budgetary factors by investing in mission-critical solutions and data center consolidation to improve internal efficiency and effectiveness.

How public sector entities react:

What public sector entities see:

• Growing need for internal efficiency and effectiveness while containing costs

• Emerging risks surrounding security as solutions move to nontraditional cloud deployments

“The current infrastructure is unnecessarily complex and should be simplified to reduce costs and assist the sustainability of IT operations. IT is somewhat fragmented into multiple databases, stand-alone applications and technology projects. We are doing these projects to have a more integrated approach and IT governance within the municipality that should be centralized and empowered to enforce policy.”
