CASE STUDY: The City of Los Angeles.

L.A.’s 34,000 employees – including her police force – now use Gmail, Google Docs and other Google Apps for their messaging and collaboration needs. Why L.A. chose Google Apps is simple. Randi Levin, Chief Technical Officer for the city of Los Angeles, wanted to replace GroupWise and chose Google’s cloud approach from 15 different proposals believing it will save the city millions of dollars on IT, allowing her staff to shift resources dedicated to e-mail to other purposes. L.A.’s decision process was rigorous. The top four proposals gave oral presentations, with the proposal for Google Apps receiving the highest marks. On Oct. 27, the Los Angeles City Council voted 12-0 in favor of using Gmail over Microsoft Outlook and the city began to use Google Apps in December 2009. Some 38,000 employees in government agencies in Washington, D.C., also use Gmail and other Google Apps. Google is also building a so-called Government Cloud, a dedicated cloud computing system for the U.S. government, in 2010.
