Prince William County received second place in the 2025 annual Digital Counties Survey in the 250,000-499,999 population category. Sponsored by the Center for Digital Government and the National Association of Counties, the program recognizes counties that demonstrate the ability to align IT innovation with strategic priorities that achieve real-world impact.

Prince William County has completed a major broadband expansion project, delivering high-speed fiber-optic internet to 474 previously unserved or underserved areas across the county. The project was completed five months ahead of schedule and under budget by several hundred thousand dollars. With this expansion, more than 98 percent of the county now has high-speed broadband access.

Prince William County was recognized along with five other counties nationwide by the Center for Digital Government for raising the bar using innovative technologies to enhance government service delivery, create a better engaged constituency and a more responsive government.

Prince William County’s Chief Information Officer (CIO) and Director of Information Technology, Rob Mancini, was recently recognized by Government Technology Magazine as one of its Top 25 Doers, Dreamers & Drivers for 2024. Each year, the magazine spotlights 25 state and local government technology leaders across the country who are reinventing government services.

DoIT launched the Prince William Technology Inclusion Initiative (TII) to help resolve chronic issues of technology access, affordability, and literacy across the County. A key tenet of our plans is the belief that delivering high-speed broadband access Countywide isn’t enough if residents can’t afford it, or might be missing some of the key skills required to thrive in an increasingly digital world.
