Pressure to do more with less, improve efficiency and reduce costs while meeting citizen needs is challenging government agencies. Intelligent Automation (IA) meets this challenge by transforming work while enabling the workforce to perform more effectively and efficiently.  Agencies are beginning to make IA fundamental to transforming workflows and achieving the mission.

The IBM Center for The Business of Government and the Partnership for Public Service recently hosted five virtual panels on this subject.  These sessions highlight real cases and lessons learned that can help all agencies understand how best to apply emerging technologies.  Read our final report, our summary blogs, and watch the video replay of the sessions.

The past 30 years provides important lessons both for today’s leaders and for those of future administrations. Little has been written about the role leaders and teams have played in the evolution of management reforms. Our “Business of Government Stories” series narrates the stories of many of the most influential events that have shaped government over the past generation. Our series focuses on the people behind this management evolution and features a podcast with reflections on the stories behind these reforms.

Read and listen to the stories.

The aim of the IBM Center is to tap into the best minds in academe and the nonprofit sector who can use rigorous public management research and analysis to produce reports with practical advice and insight for public sector executives and managers to improve the effectiveness of government.
