The NSW government has given itself until 2030 to be the ‘most customer centric’ state, holding a community consultation this week to explore how its digital service offerings can be improved.
The future.NSW event invited citizens to share ideas, and provide feedback on better ways of transacting with government.
In a statement, NSW chief information and digital officer Greg Wells said citizens needed to be at the centre of customer experience innovations. This included using community feedback to guide where government money should be invested for digital service improvements across health, education and infrastructure, he said.
“We want to safely and securely leverage technology to deliver smarter, faster and easier services for the benefit of all NSW customers.
“As we roll out digital solutions and enhance programs to improve our customer experience, it is critical we hear from a diverse range of people and there is no better event than future.NSW,” Wells said.
