Leveraging data science to guide transformation in the public sector

Governments realize that Big Data has the power to enable them to make better decisions and operate more efficiently, so it is looking to use the massive amount of data at their disposal to enable social innovation, support economic activity, and improve efficiencies and overall quality of life of its citizens

The last decade has seen the rise of new tools and techniques, as well as new uses for data that are changing the paradigm for public sector leaders starved for actionable intelligence. We know that all levels of government collect an increasing amount of data every day – with this data becoming a critical asset for insight-led decision-making. However, it can be difficult to organize, manage, and extract actionable insights from increasingly large and diverse data sets. The intelligent use of data is the missing link where true data insights can be leveraged to improve service delivery, national resilience, and citizen outcomes. 

In light of an increasing volume, velocity, and variety of data, coupled with a need to promote and protect information privacy, extracting actionable insights remains a challenge for many government departments. So, to help your department harness analytics and glean actionable insights from big data, join us at the Public Sector Network’s Big Data & Actionable Insights Virtual Event, which has been carefully curated to showcase tangible uses of big data to help you deliver citizen-centric outcomes.
