3.2: Mobility

Create mobile applications.

Other Information:

Mobile computing is in its infancy in government. The private sector sees the benefits of mobile computing. By creating mobile applications, employees have the ability to work almost anywhere and at anytime. Employees benefit because it frees them from long commutes into an office location simply to access a software application specific to their job. Employers benefit from lower facilities cost. More productive workers spend less time commuting and more time working. Mobile computing can offer these same benefits to government employees. But, perhaps equally important, when the federal government offers mobile applications to the public, more citizen engagement is possible.
