Government has never been more challenging. Public sector managers face increasing expectations from citizens, businesses, elected officials, and employees. Pressed to provide services and information to their constituents more quickly and cost-effectively than ever, these managers are often saddled with paper based or legacy information systems that fail to leverage current technology to provide a holistic view of government performance.
As citizens get accustomed to high levels of service and convenience from their experience with private sector organizations such as banks, their expectation for performance-driven government and demands for public accountability is escalated. Governments must strive for both cost reduction, by eliminating ineffective programs, and increased revenue generation, by increasing efficiency and creativity in collecting and generating fees and taxes.
