Agencies across government are at a critical cross-roads with digital service transformation. Which direction to turn between answering the call to be more operationally efficient and how to embrace GenAI technology to deliver fresh ROI, according to The Total Economic Impact™ of the PagerDuty Operations Cloud for Public Sector ebook.

Driving operational efficiency is no longer a long-term aspirational goal for government agencies, it’s now a matter of executive policy. With all the sweeping changes across Washington, agencies are faced with a huge dilemma. How can they keep pace with the changes in technology that the public demands, but deliver digital services that are more efficient and offer true ROI that’s measurable?
