Achieving Financial Transparency

Almost all governments post financial reports to their website to inform the public and promote transparency goals. However, do these reports actually provide information that is timely, accessible, and informative for the community? With modern technology, leading governments can create dashboards that offer genuine financial transparency.

This session will explain how you can develop your transparency portal, identify the most relevant data to publish, build links to your enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, and generate interest among the public. Speakers will also discuss lessons learned in establishing their own portal and how they overcame common legal, logistical, and technological hurdles.
