Visionary Panel: Challenge & Success Stories with AI

AI is the most disruptive technology innovation of our lifetime. Enterprises are embracing AI applications and leveraging a variety of data types (structured, unstructured, and semi-structured) for integrated processes across all lines of government and industry.

However, although organizations and agencies understand the importance and potential impact of AI, they often struggle to move from pilot to production. The top challenges that everyone must address in order to scale AI initiatives are: costs (i.e., hardware accelerators and compute resources), lack of skilled personnel, lack of machine learning operations tools and technologies, lack of adequate volume and quality of data, and trust and governance issues.

Tune in to hear a panel of Federal leaders offer considerations for how organizations and agencies can address these challenges, particularly when it comes to breaking silos between structured and unstructured data, unifying teams working with different tools and languages, and Enforcing consistent enterprise-grade security and governance

Analytics for All: Accelerating Outcomes in the Public Sector

We are living in a new economy. An economy where analytics, automation, and AI provide the fuel to new, digitally enabled business models. Data, analytics, and AI are at the heart of this transformation. With the COVID pandemic and geopolitical instability, digital resiliency is no longer a nice-to-have, it’s now paramount for organizational success. Some organizations have stated that 5 years of digital transformation plans were accomplished in 6 months, and the need for analytics-based decision making is stronger than ever. But transformation without analytics is just digitization. Analytics is what makes it truly transformative and enables Public Sector Organizations to accelerate mission outcomes and improve outcomes for the people, communities, and stakeholders they serve.

AI and Journey Analytics

There is a lot of new and emerging technology available today to help agencies enhance their Customer Experience Strategy. The introduction of AI, including bots, is one of the most popular “go to” options on the list.

But, how can you measure effectiveness? Do you know where to start?  How do you measure success?  A critical component of any AI strategy must include an analytics component. In this session we will briefly discuss an approach to intelligent implementation  of AI technology in your CX environment.

Visionary Panel: Intelligent Data Management: Next Step in Digital Transformation Journey

The evolving digital landscape means government organizations are forced to look ahead—to move forward—to keep up with the changes to better serve the citizens they support. Digital transformation efforts have been transforming organizations for years and now is the time to leverage data management initiatives to maximize and get the most out of this ‘journey’. ​

Like most businesses and other organizations around the world today, government agencies are seeking to reduce costs, realize operational efficiencies and deliver better services by using software as a service (SaaS) applications and other cloud solutions to digitally transform the way they operate. Effective data management and governance require leadership support—and being able to augment the right data at the right time requires not only data management but intelligent data management. Do you have a strategy in place to access and get value from your most important data—to protect the data? Tune in to learn how digitally mature your organization is and what your next move will be.

Visionary Panel: AI Guidebook: Use and Importance Throughout the Federal Government

If the benefits of Artificial Intelligence (AI) are to be achieved by the United States, federal agencies will need to follow policies and implement practices, methods, and processes to ensure the technology is ethically, effectively, and efficiently created and implemented. There are currently dozens of AI projects underway across the federal government, each of which is following policies and standards according to its charter, local governance, and management oversight. Centralizing and curating standards, best practices, and lessons learned would seem to present significant benefit to these agencies and practitioners, yet doing so presents its own technical, managerial, governance, and cultural challenges. Is it worth the effort, and if so, what are the key considerations to keep in mind as we do so?
