Strategic Plan

GovOps 2024-2026 Strategic Plan

A Message from GovOps' Executive Director, Marvin Dodge

For three years we’ve been a consolidated team of dedicated employees within the
Department of Government OperaBons aCer combining the departments of Administrative Services, Human Resource Management, and Technology Services. Our ranks now include approximately 1,500 employees and several hundred independent contractors.

By nature of the unique services we provide to our sister state agencies, public and highereducaBon, local governments, and a few public offerings, our role is performed almost entirely “behind the scenes.” However, that role is no less critical to the citizens of Utah!  Without our efforts, other public-facing government services would be nearly impossible to provide. This fact makes what we do and how we do it critically important.

Effectively communicating our vision, mission, core values, and goals to all employees and our clients is challenging without a large public stage. Please accept this strategic plan as the leadership team’s roadmap to unify our efforts toward triumph in the months and years to come.

Essential to our success is embracing and emulating our Core Values including Service, Engagement, Accountability, and Trust. By espousing these values while engaging in consistent, even small acts carried out daily, we will achieve the highest distinction by providing our clients with effective world-class services.

This plan outlines the four pillars we will be focusing on as a team in the coming months and years:
• Enhancing our Reputation
• Empowering our Workforce
• Becoming One in Purpose and Execution
• Ensuring we are Financially Sound and Transparent

I invite you to join with me, the department leadership team, and all who rely on GovOps to keep the wheels of government in motion. Thank you for the role you play in bringing this vision to fruition; we could not do it without each of you!
