Georgia Technology Authority (GTA)

The Georgia Technology Authority (GTA) manages the delivery of IT infrastructure services to state executive branch agencies and network services to more than 1,200 state and local government entities. Both categories of services are shared services provided through a public-private partnership called the Georgia Enterprise Technology Services (GETS) program. We promote an enterprise approach to technology by establishing statewide IT policies, standards, and guidelines based on industry best practices and federal requirements. We also work closely with the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget (OPB) and state agencies to ensure an individual agency's IT strategy aligns with its overall business and business continuity planning. Our teams assist in managing the state's portfolio of technology projects to ensure they meet established goals and are completed on schedule and within budget. Cybersecurity is a critically important concern. We are responsible for partner coordination at the Georgia Cyber Center, supporting the development of security training for state employees, and compiling data reports to guide state leaders in their decision-making.
