OK.gov was created to improve access to government, reduce service-processing costs and enable state agencies to provide a higher quality of service to their constituents. Oklahoma`s government uses a variety of information technologies to support these initiatives, but the use of integrated web portals, like OK.gov, bring these initiatives together. OK.gov offers numerous possibilities to expand government services online, allowing citizens to interact closely with their state government, and revolutionize operational procedures at the state level. OK.gov is a collaborative effort between the Oklahoma Office of State Finance (OSF) and Oklahoma Interactive, LLC to help Oklahoma government entities web-enable their information services. Oklahoma Interactive operates, maintains, and markets OK.gov and is part of eGovernment firm NIC`s family of companies.
