Digital hållbarhet inom offentlig sektor : En fallstudie kring hur digital hållbarhet kan förstås och arbetas med inom offentlig sektor.

Sammanfattning

Digital sustainability is a concept that is increasingly used in today's society. There is still some uncertainty about how Swedish public sector should think and relate to the concept and what the meaning really is. The purpose of this study is to investigate how public enterprises can gain a better understanding of digital sustainability and thus create better conditions in their work towards working digitally sustainably. To answer this, a qualitative case study was conducted at the Swedish authority Bolagsverket. The case study was divided into two phases, where the first phase consisted of an analysis of the current situation in order to gain an understanding of how the authority relates to digital sustainability today. This followed the second phase where a focus group interview, observation and document analysis was conducted in order to analyze and together with the theory draw conclusions related to how the business can improve its current way of working regarding digital sustainability. The conclussion clarifies five aspects to describe how a public sector can continue its work and understanding of digital sustainability. For future research as a supplement to this study, it is recommended to investigate more than one public sector in order to create a general picture of digital sustainability in public sector in Sweden.
