To help bridge the gap between information technology developers and its government users, the Center for Technology in Government hosted a two-day workshop to discuss ways to produce innovative and effective information-based government services. Participants included government officials and managers from the federal, state, and local levels; researchers in the computer, information, and social sciences; and representatives from the private industry. The workshop helped the groups identify each other's needs and capabilities, and also a list of recommendations for further consideration. Some of the recommendations included paying more attention to issues of service integration and environmental complexity, and linking research and practice.
