Benefits Spectrum for Public Service Delivery
Geographic info is a centerpiece of public resource allocation and service delivery – 70% of decision making in government (ICMA)!
Focus on processes & outcomes – don’t become fixated on technology alone
Appreciate dimensions of benefits and how municipality needs are addressed (some unique others may be shared to your organization)

Maintain City-Wide (Enterprise) Perspective

Success is measured by department stakeholder participation & success
IT leads projects – many become ongoing programs!
Progress measured through internal /external surveys & employee performance agreements
► System design lifecycle is cyclical and should promote interactions at all stages as needs change & evolve
