The lecture will present some thoughts gained from a research project related to automatization of case handling in municipalities. In Sweden today there is a high demand from the government that the 290 municipalities need to use Information Technology (IT) and to digitalize to a higher extent than today. From the municipalities point of view they also see this need for digital transformation. This has made a sort of restructuring/reorganization happens in the municipalities. Some insights and conclusions from this will be presented and discussed, focusing mainly on what capabilities that are needed to be organized, managed and governed and how this could be done. A crucial question is then how to govern and manage needed capabilities, so that the digital transformation will be successful.
