Digital government

KPMG provides strategy, technology and delivery expertise to government to achieve meaningful and sustainable digital transformation and change.

Our government is undertaking a digital transformation to modernise public services and enable New Zealanders to access these services where and when they need them.

This transformation extends beyond IT modernisation to consider data sharing and storage, the use of artificial intelligence (AI), and cybersecurity across the public sector, as examples.

Digital transformation in Aotearoa brings unique considerations in the context of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and environmental hazards.

KPMG partners with government to bring the expertise, capability and delivery confidence to deliver meaningful digital transformation in an Aotearoa-specific context.

How we can help you

We help government to modernise services and deliver better outcomes through:

Core technology modernisation

Working alongside technology vendors, we assist agencies to re-architect or decouple ageing systems, to deliver stable, scalable technology stacks that align with service delivery and transformation objectives. Our approach reduces technical debt and builds a foundation for future innovation.
Comprehensive transformation programme delivery

We bring programme discipline, governance and change leadership to large-scale digital initiatives. Our teams ensure strategy alignment, maintain momentum and embed sustainable practices to deliver lasting impact.
Cloud transition and enablement

We support our clients to move away from legacy systems and embrace cloud-based operating models that provide flexibility, cost efficiency and resilience. Our work includes developing transition strategies, ‘enabling as-a-service’ models and ensuring alignment with security and compliance requirements.
Digital system selection and implementation

Digital tooling and solutions play an integral role in the productivity and efficiency of an organisation. We have the experience and industry partnerships to support organisations to design, select, and implement digital solutions. This is coupled with our sector knowledge and industry expertise which ensures that solutions are appropriate and tailored for your organisation and operating context.
Modern, secure data platforms

We design and implement connected data environments that integrate across agencies, enable safe data sharing and support advanced analytics, while meeting data sovereignty and privacy obligations. This helps agencies to unlock insights and improve decision-making.
Responsible AI design and deployment

We help agencies move from AI strategy to live solutions through robust AI readiness programmes. This includes identifying high-value use cases, designing transparent and ethical models, establishing governance frameworks and integrating AI into cloud environments with full lifecycle oversight.
Managed services and operational resilience

We provide modern managed service offerings to maintain operational continuity and support ongoing evolution of public sector systems. This includes cloud platform management, cyber security, contact centre operations and grants and finance process support.
