Deloitte and Google Public Sector announced a major expansion
of their strategic alliance to accelerate innovation and harness new
technologies like generative AI (gen AI) to help government and higher
education clients solve complex problems. With deep experience at the
federal, state, and local levels, Deloitte and Google Public Sector will
launch a portfolio of new solutions that combine Google Cloud's leading
AI/ML, gen AI, and data analytics capabilities with Deloitte's deep
mission experience and engineering capabilities to enhance constituent
engagement, improve geospatial planning, and drive better mission
insights.
Through the expanded alliance, Deloitte will quadruple its Google
Public Sector resources to better help public sector organizations adopt
and scale vital transformation programs that achieve their
mission-driven objectives. The organizations' initial focus will be on
three critical areas primed for modernization:
- Enhance constituent engagement: Deloitte will
bolster its innovative and empathetic Human Centered Design
capabilities with Google Cloud's gen AI solutions, including Vertex AI,
Document AI, and conversational AI, to help public sector organizations
evolve services to better engage with their constituencies, build trust,
and foster stronger community relationships. For example, applying
conversational AI to state eligibility systems can help residents
quickly check the status of their application and access other important
information and resources.
- Geospatial scenario planning and monitoring: Deloitte
will build new geospatial planning solutions that combine Google Earth
Engine and Google Cloud's gen AI technology to improve operational
resilience and help organizations proactively anticipate and plan for
myriad challenges, such as urban planning, disaster response, and
infrastructure development. Deloitte is one of the only global systems
integrators in North America that is
part of the Google Earth Engine Partner Initiative, with the skill set
to utilize more than 1,000 earth observation datasets to enable more
informed decision-making and sustainable planning capabilities, such as
applying gen AI to sandbox and test community readiness for rising sea
levels.
- Advanced data analytics to drive mission insights:
Deloitte will apply Vertex AI and BigQuery to offer new solutions that
enable advanced analytics capabilities. Utilizing enhanced data
analytics and safe, responsible AI can help clients effectively identify
valuable trends and insights, optimize operations, and enhance the
delivery of services.
"With these new investments and our
ongoing collaboration with Google Public Sector, Deloitte will help
engineer advantage for our government, higher education and nonprofit
clients so they can better address the most complex challenges facing
their organizations," said Jason Salzetti,
principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and Deloitte's government and public
services industry leader. "Our keen understanding of market-specific
issues and deep technology experience, combined with Google Cloud's
cutting-edge technologies, will give our clients the confidence to seize
opportunities to enhance their operations and improve the delivery of
services for the people they serve."
"Google Public Sector has accelerated its work towards helping
government and education customers transform with technologies that are
easy to adopt, scale quickly, and enable organizations to achieve their
missions," said Karen Dahut, CEO of
Google Public Sector. "Our expanded alliance with Deloitte will
significantly grow the tools and resources available to public sector
clients, including new and innovative solutions that demonstrate the
potential of gen AI and the services needed to successfully adopt them."
