Digital Maturity Index (IMD)
These recognitions are given on the basis of the Digital Maturity Index (IMD) carried out by the AOC and determined from the analysis of objective indicators, data on the use of AOC services and the analysis from the websites of local bodies.
The IMD is a unique and innovative initiative, both at state and international level, which allows us to rigorously assess the degree of maturity of a public body's digital transformation. Indices that measure the development of digital government at the regional or state level are not appropriate for evaluating data at the local level and, moreover, are based on surveys or statistical data, while the IMD uses public and objective open data.
