Pennsylvania is among the leaders in government innovation, employing technology to raise the quality of public services and make people more involved. It involves updating data systems, AI and IT infrastructure, making digital services better while improving customer experience. They are integrating such advanced technologies as big data into their systems aimed at upgrading government infrastructures to achieve great efficiency levels and accessibility. At its core, this project entails setting ethical standards for managing AI and data; hence Pennsylvania must ensure that these technologies are used responsibly even as they continue expanding their use. 

Join us at the Government Innovation Showcase Pennsylvania to explore insights in data management, modernized infrastructure, citizen-centric digital services, digital inclusion, and inter-agency collaboration. This event will highlight Pennsylvania's innovative approaches and provide a platform for sharing ideas with peers across the state.

The National Association of State CIOs (NASCIO) reported in its 2025 State CIO Survey that many states have been providing supplemental funding to their CIO organizations to use on IT modernization and/or innovation. Whether streamlining state DMVs or setting up digital services for courts, agencies are focusing on providing better, more streamlined services to their customers. 

Included in these modernization efforts is the continuing embrace of the cloud. All the respondents to the NASCIO survey said they have a multi-cloud strategy; their reasons were many and varied, such as modernizing their applications, optimizing their budgets, and aging (legacy) hardware. CIOs in states with federated governance structures discussed selecting software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions, with the potential to build on their state’s cloud portfolio. 

Learning Objectives:

• Outline how using modernization toolkits can speed the delivery of better services to citizens
• Identify the forms of hybrid cloud (such as public bolstered by private cloud) that best suit your agency’s requirements
• Understand the integration of SaaS platforms into your agency’s cloud choices

At its annual conference in October 2025, the National Association of State CIOs (NASCIO) focused on “measurable modernization” facilitated by artificial intelligence (AI). Intelligent, AI-powered tools can streamline IT, converting slow, manual legacy system upgrades into faster, cheaper, and more secure processes by automating code analysis, testing, data migration, and even generating code, ultimately making systems more efficient, scalable, and future-proof while freeing humans for higher-value tasks. 

There are several ways AI is suited to improve operations. To name just a few:

• By analyzing legacy code, such as COBOL, to understand its structure, find inefficiencies and even rewrite it into modern coding languages, AI reduces legacy debt and eases manpower needs for obsolete coding skills.
• AI tools can automate testing and quality controls, significantly speeding up quality assurance and moving apps to more easily supported operations.
• Using AI can generate predictive maintenance, identifying potential system failures and enabling self-healing capabilities.

Learning Objectives:

• Delineate places in your agency’s IT systems where AI can serve as a bridge between legacy systems and new services for citizens
• Establish priorities for tasks and processes that can be streamlined through the use of AI tools
• Outline metrics that can measure improvements, such as improved accuracy in testing, cost savings through reductions in outside labor costs (such as coding), and faster turnaround time in updating apps
