Mike Brooks, Sr. Systems Analyst for the City of Acworth, GA Recognized in the 2025 AI 50
Hauppauge, NY — August 4, 2025 — We are thrilled to congratulate our client, Mike Brooks, Senior Systems Analyst for the City of Acworth, Georgia, on being named to GovTech’s inaugural AI 50: Honoring Public Sector AI Innovators. This prestigious recognition, presented by e.Republic’s Center for Public Sector AI, celebrates individuals who are driving meaningful change through artificial intelligence in government.
Mike’s inclusion in the AI 50 highlights his leadership and the City of Acworth’s commitment to leveraging technology to improve public service delivery, sustainability, and operational efficiency. His work exemplifies how thoughtful AI adoption can create real impact in local government.
Transforming Government with AI
One of the most impactful innovations Acworth has adopted is Laserfiche’s AI Document Summarization tool, which has revolutionized how city staff manage and process information. Previously, clerks spent over two and a half hours per week manually summarizing twice-weekly meetings. With AI, that task now takes just five minutes, saving the city over 104 hours annually on this process alone. Staff also use the tool to recap training sessions, further extending its time-saving benefits.
This AI-driven efficiency is part of a broader digital transformation strategy that includes:
- Tourism Surveys powered by Laserfiche forms, which helped the city gather actionable data and led to the hiring of a new team member.
- A digital check request process that saw a 27% increase in usage from 2023 to 2024, streamlining vendor payments.
- An invoice submission workflow that improved finance operations, with submissions rising from 3,800 in 2023 to 5,100 in 2024, totaling over 8,900 submissions since launch.
- A digital State of the City invitation form that replaced a paper-based process and received 144 citizen responses, significantly boosting civic engagement.
These innovations have saved the city thousands of hours and tens of thousands of dollars, while improving transparency, audit readiness, and citizen services.
A Proven Partnership
Earlier this year, Acworth was honored with the 2025 Laserfiche Run Smarter® Award, recognizing their strategic use of technology to deliver measurable ROI and sustainability. At AIS, we’ve been proud to support Acworth’s journey, helping implement and optimize Laserfiche to meet their evolving needs.
Mike Brooks has been instrumental in driving these initiatives forward. His leadership ensures that every AI-driven solution is aligned with the city’s mission to serve its residents more effectively and securely.
Congratulations, Mike, and the entire City of Acworth team! Your innovation and dedication are setting a powerful example for municipalities nationwide.
