Outdated technology is one of the biggest roadblocks for local governments. Slow software, clunky processes, and rigid systems don’t just make your work harder—they drain resources, frustrate staff, and create unnecessary delays for residents. Yet, many governments depend on these pre-historic systems, not because they work well, but because switching to something new can feel a little scary and overwhelming. But the truth is, staying stagnant isn’t a solution—it’s an expensive setback.
