Improving CX and Engagement in Local Government- Canada
All large organizations, and public sector institutions in particular, generally have complicated, bureaucratic processes, developed over time. Some of these require a lot of repetitive employee input, whilst others were simply developed in a different age – before the digital age – and would benefit from an upgrade. These upgrades can take many forms, from Robotic Process Automation (RPA), to just a simple improvement or advancement in processes. This is a lot of new construction, and thus the City decided to conduct a “development services review,” designed to look at “how development functions interact and are coordinated, and to identify …

Improving Contract and Supplier Management- Canada
Tamara McNulty, the Director of Procurement, Contracting, and Contributions at Parks Canada, has a slightly more nuanced and possibly “old school” approach to procurement. As much as it should be a disruptor, it should also be about “adding value to services.” Procurement, especially in large and public sector organizations, is still often described “as a necessary evil; as something we go through in order to get what we need.” As much as that is true, it doesn’t make the function appealing or attractive. If however it could be seen “as a value-added service, then it would be embraced as an …

Building Green and Sustainable Cities - Canada
In the case of the City of Victoria, they have a 2050 vision and a Climate Leadership Plan, both of which are about “creating low-carbon prosperity.” For instance, the targets include “transitioning to 100% renewable energy by 2050 and cutting our greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030.” The goal of the city is “to lead and inspire” and to “model what is actually possible.” However, in a city like theirs, “corporate emissions account for only 1% of total emissions,” so their real goal is to “support our residents and businesses as they take action to combat that other 99 …

Upskilling to build critical skills and competencies: A crucial HR focus in 2021
In the past year, we saw a global pandemic completely shift every aspect of everyday life, including work. Remote working arrangements tested the practicality of traditional management processes and put the spotlight on the limitations of legacy IT systems. Prior to the pandemic, government HR leaders were generally concerned with recruiting, motivating, and retaining talent. And while upskilling was already a key priority for government departments prior to the pandemic, COVID-19 has heightened the reskilling challenge. The adoption of new technology in terms of working and HR has been an exciting one; technology has enabled a quick adaption to the …

The 3 biggest benefits of a remote workforce
Even before the advent of Covid-19, remote working had moved from a mere perk reserved for the few to a mainstream concept. While pre-2020 employees may have started to work out of the office here and there, being thrust into a global pandemic accelerated the uptake – and acceptance – of remote work. While Covid-19 didn’t initiate the idea of remote working, it definitely fast-tracked a trend in the making. With this fast tracking came a whole host of unexpected opportunities and challenges. Many government agencies had to urgently solve security, data and collaboration issues related to remote work without …
5 technologies helping to maximise infrastructure investment in 2021
Emerging digital tools are helping government to develop, operate, maintain, upgrade and dispose of assets, ensuring citizens have access to world class infrastructure. Read on to hear about how governments across Australia are already leveraging smart technologies in asset and infrastructure management to deliver better infrastructure. Over the next year, integrating these technologies into asset management across state and federal government will make-or-break Australia’s record infrastructure investment. Vicmap is a portfolio of spatial data and products, including high-resolution spatial imagery and LiDAR data with coverage across the State. Vicmap equips a wide range of State Government organisations and partners with …

Data Science & Machine Learning for the Public Sector
“The DPC had long had a data team, but “we were not really a data science place. We were very much just an analytical team.” A department like DPC has a constant flow of data coming in, and analysing it efficiently and appropriately is the role of the data team. They were good at their job, “but we found that there was more that we could be doing with the data to really exploit that data in a better way. We also needed to do it quicker.” There was a lot of talk around the team about how this could …

Identifying API use cases in government
Many government departments are either planning their API participation or currently on the journey. And while they may be looking at specific use cases for API implementation, the question still arises: what are the other potential uses within their industry? API is the acronym for Application Programming Interface – a software intermediary that allows two applications to talk to one other. Originally, APIs were often extremely complicated and not really meant for wide consumption. With this traditional view of APIs, it would be easy to see how API implementation could be seen as too complex to be of widespread benefit …
