Cutting the Cost of Government: Cloud Computing, Worker Mobility, and Technology Innovation

Duration: 1 hour

In today’s tough budget times, governments at all levels are being pushed to cut costs. Government innovators are increasingly turning to technology to power productivity improvements that help their bottom line.

Of all the types of technology on the horizon, there is great promise in two key areas: cloud computing and worker mobility. Governments are adopting cloud computing rapidly, and early case studies are showing impressive results. Power consumption is reduced, hardware costs are diminished, and maintenance costs are slashed. Greater worker mobility – working anywhere from any device – also has a powerful impact on our “triple bottom line” with benefits to budgets, human capital, and environmental goal attainment.
