CDG21-Government Experience Project Awards

The Center for Digital Government (CDG) invites nominations for its GOVERNMENT EXPERIENCE AWARDS 2021 where we celebrate achievements and learn best practices from U.S. states, counties, cities and federal agencies. We will recognize entities that have gone beyond simply using the web to radically improve upon the experience of government and are pushing the boundaries of how services are delivered.

Project Experience Nomination
The Project Experience award nomination should have a single focus area and can include more than one channel of interaction (for example mobile and web).

Deadline: Nominations must be submitted online by Wednesday, May 12, 2021.

Top government jurisdictions, agencies and departments will be featured in a virtual Experience Academy and honored at a high-energy, celebratory virtual awards event on September 15. Winners may also be featured in Government Technology and other publications.

CDG thanks our corporate members Accenture, Adobe, Amazon Web Services, CAI, Crown Castle, Dell Technologies, EasyVote, HP Inc., Infor, Laserfiche, McAfee, Medallia, Microsoft, NIC, Oracle, Pure Storage, ServiceNow, SHI, Spectrum Enterprise, Splunk, TeamDynamix, Verizon Enterprise Solutions, Whyline, and Yubico for underwriting the 2021 awards program.

Project Experience Awards
All U.S. state and local governments, their individual agencies/departments, and U.S. federal agencies/departments may nominate their projects for the Project Experience Awards.

Award categories:
City
County

Please note, any relevant COVID-19 response-related information should be included in the nomination - there is not a separate category for pandemic response this year.

The same department, agency or jurisdiction may submit more than one project entry (nominate each project separately).

All projects that are nominated must be fully implemented by the due date. There are no other time limitations, such as how many years the nominated project has been operational.
