50 Award Winner
The Information Network of Arkansas (INA) has won a Digital Edge
50 award for transforming Arkansas government through Gov2Go, the
state’s ground-breaking personal government assistant. Selected
from hundreds of entries in more than 15 industries, INA is among
50 international organizations—including Accenture, FedEx, Cisco
Systems, Monsanto, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and Verizon—that
technology media company IDG Enterprise recognized for digital
transformation initiatives with significant and measurable business
impact.
Gov2Go is the nation’s first digital government assistant that
delivers citizen-centric government interactions. Today, more than
275,000 Arkansans have subscribed to Gov2Go to receive
personalized, timely, and relevant notifications about their
interactions with state government. Gov2Go learns about its users,
keeps track of their deadlines—such as voter registration, property
tax payments, car tag renewals and property assessment—and sends
important reminders to their computers, mobile devices, and Apple
watches.
“It is an honor to once again be recognized for our
citizen-centric approach to delivering government services through
Gov2Go,” INA Board Chair and Secretary of State Mark Martin said.
“This is an innovation that is truly needed to make it easy for
citizens to comply with state and local laws without having to know
them. Ultimately, Gov2Go has the potential to become an
indispensable part of citizens’ lives and strengthen their
connection to government.”
This marks the state’s seventh award for Gov2Go since the
service first launched in 2015. Other accolades include Finalist in
the Government Computer News 2016 DIG IT Award competition, the
NASCIO 2016 State IT Recognition Award for Emerging and Innovative
