NEC Australia joined forces with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to sponsor Intermedium’s 2024-25 NSW ICT and Digital Budget breakfast briefing in Sydney earlier this month. It was a compelling and engaging event, with valuable insights from the latest Intermedium’s latest Digital Government Readiness and Maturity Indicator (DGRMI) report and a panel discussion on digital leadership and transformation across NSW and beyond. 🌟 NSW continues to lead the way in digital government, outscoring all the other government jurisdictions across Australia and New Zealand by achieving the highest combined score in the DGRMI report, with an impressive 18.7 out of 20. NSW’s leadership in digital government and transformation is a testament to its decade-long focus on digital and customer service, which has laid a strong foundation of policies, governance, and innovative platforms. From pioneering AI frameworks to advancing digital inclusiveness for all citizens, NSW sets a gold standard for digital government. 🙌 NSW’s previous Minister for Customer Service and Digital Government, the Hon. Victor Dominello, has been instrumental in shaping NSW’s digital future and continues to be a strong champion of digital services. This work continues under the dedicated stewardship of the current minister, the Hon. Jihad Dib, who has identified inclusion and connectivity as key priorities for the NSW government. NEC Australia is committed to supporting governments in their digital transformation journeys, enhancing citizen experiences, and fostering innovation. Together, we are orchestrating a brighter, more connected future. 👉 Discover more about NSW’s digital leadership and other key insights from the report by downloading the full DGRMI report here: https://lnkd.in/gpcFjPWW Thank you to the panelists and participants in the NSW event - Laura Christie PSM, Government Chief Digital and Information Officer and Deputy Secretary for Digital.NSW; Intermedium’s principal analyst, Judy Hurditch; Karen K., Acting Chief Digital Officer for Revenue NSW; Suzy Mann, Chief Technology Officer & Executive Director for the Technology & Communication Services Command for the NSW Police Force; Mike A.

It’s been a fast-paced week at the ITS Australia Summit! Yesterday, NEC hosted a panel discussion and breakfast to launch our latest whitepaper on AI solutions in transport. The panel, featuring industry experts, Mark Messenger, Head of Smart Transport for Australia and New Zealand at NEC, Chris Nielsen, Senior Account Executive for Transport at Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Professor Vinayak Dixit, Professor of Transport Engineering at UNSW, unpacked the transformative potential – and potential challenges – of AI in the transport sector. 💡 Key takeaways from the discussion: • Building Trust: AI and emerging technologies will transform transport, but trust is crucial. 🤝 • Mark Messenger: “The main challenge for governments in adopting AI revolves around trust—trust in the government's intentions and in the technology itself.” • Gradual Adoption: Introducing AI gradually ensures its benefits are proven before widescale adoption. 📈 • Transparency: Designing AI with transparent, explainable decision-making processes is key. We must avoid 'black box' systems. 🔍 • Vinayak Dixit: “Success isn't just about being correct 99% of the time; it's about being able to explain the decision-making process 99% of the time, ensuring transparency and trust." 📢 We also launched a new whitepaper at the event: “Evolving AI Solutions in Transport and Infrastructure Management.” Download it here: https://lnkd.in/dpxa4BRU #TransportInnovation #SmartTransport #ITS2024 #AIinTransport #NEC #InfrastructureManagement #TechnologyTrends Tithi Roy Simon R.
