California’s Office of the Secretary of State and the County of Sonoma nominated SimpliGov for the prestigious Financial Times award program based on successful implementations of innovative government workflow automation projects, respectively. SimpliGov is a finalist in multiple award categories, while the co-founder of SimpliGov, Paul Hirner, has been nominated for an award as an “Individual Market Shaper.”
“Our county’s innovative collaboration with SimpliGov gave us the digital data-sharing and automation capabilities to engage citizens experiencing complex health and life challenges, such as homelessness and behavioral health, to achieve better outcomes,” said Carolyn Staats, Director of Innovation, Information Systems Department at Sonoma County, California. “The SimpliGov workflow automation platform helps our county automate consent at various points of service, accelerating the provisioning of county services and resulting in substantial savings.”
Staats and Hirner will be co-presenting at the Financial Times’ Intelligent Business Forum on October 22 in San Francisco on the topic of “Intelligent collaboration: a healthcare gamechanger.”
“It is an honor for SimpliGov and myself to be recognized by the Financial Times as finalists in this world-renowned award program,” said Paul Hirner, co-founder of SimpliGov. “Finding a better way is at the heart of innovation, which is what drives SimpliGov to continue to partner with governments to advance government digital transformation.”
