Government Experience Award Winners Evolve Experiences to Meet New Expectations of Constituents and Employees

Winners of the seventh annual competition create better digital experiences and build trust between state and local governments and the people they serve.

SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, September 19, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Center for Digital Government (CDG) today announced the winners of the seventh annual Government Experience Awards.

The awards recognize the achievements of states, cities and counties that have raised the bar on the experience of government services to create a better engaged constituency and a more responsive government. Top government jurisdictions, agencies and departments will be honored during the Government Experience Awards at the virtual GovX Summit later today.

The Summit is CDG’s premier annual event that showcases the latest trends, best practices and ideas around the evolving experience of government. Registration is complimentary and open to the public sector only.

“With citizen and employee expectations continually evolving, government agencies are leveraging new technologies and processes to drive innovation through their digital experiences,” said Dustin Haisler, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer, Center for Digital Government. “The leading government experiences have retained a human-centric approach to service delivery, incorporating digital equity, accessibility and inclusion into all of their experiences.”

This year's winners have redesigned websites and simplified services with Single Sign-On, cloud-based platforms, enhanced accessibility and mobility features, and one-stop portals. Winners used mobile apps, dashboards, chatbots, and digital service analytics to improve constituent experience in many areas including e-pay, housing, homeless solutions, licensing/certification, property management, public health, real-time crime centers and the transparency of government information.
