Preparing today for the unexpected tomorrow

from FedScoop Radio Hosted by FedScoop

Federal, state and local governments are still adapting to the consequences of COVID-19. But what many of them have discovered is that in the face of growing citizen demands, shifting administration priorities and budget uncertainties, it’s still possible to adopt new technologies relatively quickly to deliver digital services. For Andrew Fairbanks, who leads a public sector team of more than 3,000 professionals for IBM Global Services, the ability for agencies to shift to new technologies was both remarkable and a testament to why agencies still need to modernize. “I think there are really three principal drivers that I see in this acceleration,” he says in this podcast, where he discusses the drivers behind agencies' IT modernization goals today. Guest: Andrew Fairbanks, Vice President, General Manager, IBM Services - Federal Host: Wyatt Kash, SVP, Content Strategy, Scoop News Group Look for more coverage of “IT Modernization in Government” on www.fedscoop.com/listen
