The Commission for A New Georgia
Administrative Services Task Force

From 2003 to 2010, 24 CNG Task Forces have involved over 350 knowledgeable citizens and more than a dozen top-notch consulting firms in scrutinizing management and operations in key functions of State Government. Their reports on findings and recommended actions for improvement can be accessed through the Task Force links listed here.

The Commission designed the Task Force strategy to enable fast-track fact-finding and problem-solving. Small, focused task forces – typically a team of 8-12 -- were set up around key operational functions of government. Task forces were chaired by well-recognized executives, and members were recruited from private-sector enterprises around the state, to bring diverse perspectives to complex issues.

The Commission also enlisted the expertise of world-respected consulting firms, including such giants as McKinsey, Accenture, DeLoitte, Hewitt, KPMG and IBM, which brought extensive experience and capabilities in research, analysis and project management.

Task forces were all-volunteer, and consultants performed hundreds of hours of pro bono service.

The task forces evaluated the mechanics of government operations and recommend proven business practices to get the job done more efficiently, effectively and economically. Much of their early work focused on improving core enterprise-wide operations, where ongoing inefficiency multiplies the hidden costs of administration by millions of dollars a year.

In all, Task Forces delivered 130 actionable recommendations to improve accountability, asset management, service delivery and customer satisfaction.

All task force reports and recommendations are posted on this website.
