Many state and local jurisdictions have taken steps to provide citizens with mobile access to services, according to a February 2012 survey by GovTech Exchange. The survey of 100 senior-level IT pros from state and local government found that 38 percent of respondents planned to launch new mobile offerings within 12 months, while 23 percent said they were not sure. Of those planning new deployments, 55 percent said they will use responsive design approaches that enable a single source of content to be viewed by multiple device types and operating systems. About half said they will build the apps using in-house developers, while the other half planned to work with outside developers.
