Kansas is the nation’s birthplace of electronic government. For more than 20 years, Kansas has been a consistent leader in producing award-winning eGovernment services. The Kansas.gov portal’s overall content theme aligns with Governor Brownback’s “Roadmap for Kansas.” Core components of the visual strategy include vibrant photos submitted by Kansans that represent the majestic beauty of Kansas.
“The success of this website is in its ability to serve the citizens of our state,” said Governor Sam Brownback. “I am pleased that the website, which reflects the collaboration of state agencies, has been recognized as an effective tool to serve Kansans.”
The new website was developed in cooperation with several key state agencies and at no cost to the state through the self-funded model. The completely new Kansas.gov website benefits citizens with a greatly simplified home page, a complete content reorganization, and a focus on mobile-first technology to provide a streamlined interface for users who visit the site through desktop, smart phones or tablets.
“On behalf of the board of directors of the INK and the Kansas agencies, boards, commissions and councils, we are extremely pleased to accept this recognition”, said Jim Hollingsworth the Executive Director of the Information Network of Kansas. “This award is shared with our state partners in all three branches of government who work every day to serve the citizens of Kansas.”
