Government Technology Leadership Award

The Government Technology Leadership Award recognizes an innovative IT initiative or solution for its contributions to a state or local government agency's mission accomplishment, service to the public, and cost effectiveness. The award recognizes those initiatives or solutions that: improve the delivery of services to citizens and enterprises; break down barriers between offices, agencies, and departments or between federal, state, and local governments; or significantly reduce the cost of governance. Two awards are given in this category: one for a public leader or entity, and a second to a private leader or entity.
