Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Digitally Transforms Citizen Services
The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) undertook a large-scale digital transformation to modernize operations and improve citizen-facing services. Prior to this, the agency struggled with outdated legacy systems, fragmented data, and paper-based processes, impacting service consistency and data accuracy. With Microsoft as technology enabler and HSO as implementation partner, FDACS implemented a phased, modular modernization initiative centered on Microsoft Dynamics 365 for case management, the Power Platform for workflow automation, and Azure for unified data and reporting. Thirteen new systems went live, replacing legacy tools and manual processes in multiple divisions. Citizens gained online access to permitting and case-tracking portals. Automation has improved operational efficiency and provided FDACS with greater real-time visibility into agency operations. The architecture is built on a scalable Azure cloud foundation and is continually expanding to support more divisions and services. This project now serves as a model for digital transformation in state government.
