Know the degree of digital maturity of your administration
These recognitions are given on the basis of theDigital Maturity Index (IMD) which prepares the AOC and which is determined from the analysis of objective indicators, the data on the use of the AOC services and the analysis of the websites of 947 town councils and 42 county councils.
In this way, local administrations have at their disposal rigorous information to know their state of affairs, their strengths and areas for improvement. Comparisons can also be made with other similar administrations or with those leading the digital transformation.
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.
