Government Technology Magazine Awards 10 Accela Customers Its Highest Recognition for Innovation
They’re collaborators, ground breakers, and constantly innovating. These were the three qualities of the 2019 Top 25 Doers, Dreamers and Drivers awardees, with 10 out of the 25 winners serving in offices of Accela’s government customers.
