Innovating on a Budget

Many agencies have a long list of IT innovations on their to-do list, but budget constraints can keep modernization on the back burner. The results are frustration from external and internal stakeholders alike, as agencies try to scrape by with outdated systems. Ring in the New Year by hearing how other government CIOs have taken a cost-conscious route to getting more innovations done for less money.

Keith Nelson has spent more than 20 years working in the fields of public sector consulting and high-tech marketing and as a government appointee. His roles in government include serving as Assistant Secretary for Administration (a position requiring Senate confirmation), Acting Assistant Secretary for Research and Technology, Acting Chief Financial Officer, and Deputy Chief Information Officer at the U.S. Departments of Transportation, Labor and Housing and Urban Development.

At OpenText, Keith oversees the global public sector industry, pairing the unique needs of government and educational organizations against OpenText’s portfolio of software solutions. With the industry focused on mission delivery, not profits, Keith taps into public sector stories where OpenText has provided better citizen services, leveraged AI and automation to provide civil servants with more time for strategic work, and shored up cyber defenses.
