Challenges states face with data-driven decision-making
State governments often encounter obstacles when trying to collect actionable data and engage communities.
Inconsistent data collection methods
States struggle to gather reliable, standardized data across regions, making comparisons difficult.
Difficulty engaging residents at scale
It can be challenging to involve large, diverse populations in statewide decision-making processes.
Limited access to real-time data
Without timely data, states are often unable to make swift, informed decisions that address emerging issues.
Lack of benchmarks for performance evaluation
States often lack a clear way to compare regional and statewide performance against national or internal standards.
Inefficient resource allocation
In the absence of comprehensive data, it’s difficult to prioritize resources effectively and address regional disparities.
Challenges in fostering transparency and trust
A disconnect between state policies and public perception can erode trust and reduce civic engagement.
