City of Dallas Wins 2026 Government Experience Award for 'Safer Dallas' Public Safety Platform
The City of Dallas announced on November 10 that its Department of Information & Technology Services (ITS) received the 2026 Government Experience Project Award from the Center for Digital Government (CDG). The award recognizes the Safer Dallas Public Safety Platform Implementation Project for an outstanding level of service, innovation, and constituent-focused digital delivery.
The Government Experience Awards celebrate state and local government organizations that push boundaries to make public services more accessible, responsive, and secure. Dallas was recognized alongside an elite group of jurisdictions leading the nation in public-sector technology modernization, and the 2026 winners were celebrated at a nationwide virtual awards ceremony on October 15, 2026. Rob Lloyd, Executive Director of the Center for Digital Government, said the awards set a high bar, with expert judges looking closely at the design and impact of services.
The city implemented Fusus, a real-time public safety intelligence platform, as part of its Safer Dallas Initiative to enhance situational awareness, strengthen emergency response capabilities, and improve information sharing across public safety operations. Dallas Chief Information Officer Jeffrey Stovall said the recognition reflects the dedication, technical skill, and collaborative spirit of the team and its municipal partners. The city described the platform as a major milestone in its digital transformation, integrating critical municipal safety services into a unified digital ecosystem.
