Scott Gregory, Chief Technology Innovation Officer, will give a firsthand account of the focus, goals, and projects within the newly named Office of Enterprise Technology.
Background: The California Department of Technology (CDT) announced it has changed the name of its Office of Digital Innovation to the Office of Enterprise Technology (OET), effective immediately. The change is needed to avoid confusion with the state’s new Office of Digital Innovation (ODI), which was proposed by Governor Gavin Newsom and enacted in the 2019-20 state budget. The Office of Enterprise Technology will be a sister organization to the new ODI, said State Chief Information Officer and CDT Director Amy Tong. “Our organization will continue to focus on technology,” she said. “But not all challenges can be solved by technology alone, so ODI will be a vital resource for coming up with innovative, human-centered design solutions.” Both organizations fall under the purview of the Government Operations Agency, and each will play an important role by helping state entities and employees improve their business processes and by providing change management to better serve California citizens. Scott Gregory, whose title will change from Chief Digital Innovation Officer to Chief Technology Innovation Officer, will continue to provide leadership and direction for the renamed Office of Enterprise Technology. “We chose to rename our organization so that it reflects our role in supporting foundational, statewide technology offerings that will promote and enable innovation across government,” Gregory said. “The Office of Enterprise Technology will play a key allied role by supporting the new ODI and the initiatives it tackles. We are confident that the relationship between the two organizations will be completely complementary and accomplish great things for the residents of our state.”
