Navigate Government featuring iD.gov

There is immense value in collaborating and sharing ideas with our IT colleagues in the government sector throughout the State of Alabama. The Alabama Digital Government Summit provides an excellent opportunity to do just that by bringing together IT professionals from all across our state to hear from industry leaders and insiders, to promote best practices, and to network with one another. The State of Alabama Office of Information Technology is proud to continue its partnership with Government Technology to present this exciting annual conference.

Current bureaucratic procedures in the Federal government have imposed an overwhelming paperwork burden on citizens and workers, amounting to over 9 billion hours annually. In December 2021, President Joe Biden issued the Executive Order on Transforming Federal Customer Experience and Service Delivery to Rebuild Trust in Government. Although past actions have laid the groundwork for service improvements, this new order recognizes the need for sustained focus, accountability, and improved delivery for the public's benefit. Service delivery should prioritize the needs of citizens. Through human-centered design, empirical research, behavioral science insights, and continuous engagement in service delivery, processes can be made more efficient, fair, equitable, and transparent. Government must harness technology to modernize services, ensuring they're user-friendly, accessible, transparent, equitable, and protective. In our Potomac Officer’s Club’s: Radiant Digital CX Imperative session, we will discuss how digital transformation strategies can help agencies as they redesign customer experience to align with the presidential directive, including enhancing transparency, removing inequitable barriers, and protecting customer data.

Battle fields are constantly evolving and becoming ever-more digitally connected. As such, Cyber-Physical risks are more prevalent across our most critical sectors, and the threat landscape continues to expand. Moreover, Geopolitical events dictate that the only certainty is uncertainty. Against this backdrop, the United States Government and its military leaders are enhancing operational capabilities to mitigate risk spanning our complex infrastructure, particularly in remote locations. Groundbreaking technologies are enabling this effort, and specifically, the use of Kubernetes containerization technology is accelerating mission success and impact within these types of tactical environments “at the edge.” Join us for an engaging and insightful forum on how the ability to drive both the capacity and the speed at which data-driven decision-making in a zero-trust environment is reshaping and transforming the modern military landscape.

The 24th Annual Washington Digital Government Summit is a great opportunity for government technology leaders and industry partners to network and discuss common areas of strategy and innovation. It’s an important time to share with your peers how we are innovating around our common challenges and opportunities around IT workforce, AI, cybersecurity, modernization, data management, cloud, and more! Please join us in Tacoma, in person, for this annual event!
