Google Apps for State and Local Government

An Email System that Dramatically Lowers Your Total Cost of Ownership

Small inbox storage capacity can cause users to spend more time managing their inbox and less time accomplishing their goals. Constantly having to manage your inbox to comply with size limitations dramatically decreases worker productivity. In this age of high information sharing, 200MG to 500MG inboxes are no longer acceptable. Free yourself of these antiquated tools with Google Apps.

Email is an essential daily communications tool for most government employees that should be easy, efficient, and useful. Google Apps gives each employee a 25GB inbox—plenty of storage space to keep important messages. Plus, Gmail powered with Google’s powerful search feature makes it easy to find any message, while powerful spam filtering adds security and helps your employees focus on what’s important.

Google Apps delivers these benefits and more while lowering total cost of ownership (TCO), eliminating the entire back-end infrastructure associated with Microsoft Exchange or other on-premises e-mail systems.

Collaboration Tools for the 21st Century Government Workforce

In today’s workplace, traditional “collaboration” (ie: sharing documents via attachments) is inefficient. Traditional collaboration tools shortcomings include:

Attachments can be too large to send over email, and take up inbox space.
Coworkers with incompatible software can’t open your attachments.
It’s easy to lose track of which version of an attachment you should work on. Someone gets stuck reconciling everyone’s asynchronous edits.
File shares can create workflow bottlenecks. Everyone gets locked out of a file when one person forgets to check it back in.

Whether your agency uses Microsoft Office or a different productivity suite, DLT Solutions understands employees shouldn’t have to struggle with their software to collaborate.

Google Docs enhances your agency’s productivity suite and eliminates the need to collaborate with attachments.

Employees can start a project with software like Microsoft Office, and use Google Docs to share files with coworkers for collaborative editing.
Everyone accesses the same online copy of the file in Google Docs, so there are no attachment compatibility problems, inbox storage quota issues, or versions to reconcile.
When the group is done editing, you can keep the file in Google Docs, or export it back to the original format.

Reliable, Secure Infrastructure

“In addition to empowering employees across the city, everyone will benefit from Google’s security controls, which will provide a higher level of security for City data than exists with our current system.”Randy Levin – Chief Technology Officer, City of Los Angeles.

Data security and disaster recovery in the modern government agency is more important than ever. Information must be shared to be effective but it also must be protected for our safety. Google’s network of data centers is engineered for security, reliability, and redundancy, and backed by some of the world’s foremost experts in information security.
