State and local governments are tasked with providing for the needs of citizens by maintaining critical infrastructure and assets, all while providing constituent services of all types. These demands range from public safety, utilities, and services to a panoply of other needs. These public-sector entities are relying more and more on government IT solutions in order to reduce costs while increasing flexibility and scalability. This shift is happening due to the inherent needs of these entities to do much more with very limited IT personnel and budgetary resources.
