On Tuesday, October 2, 2012, the Center of Digital Government released the results for 2012 Digital State Survey. North Dakota received a "B" after reviewing submissions from all 50 states.

Under the Digital States criteria, a "B" constitutes a state that is "Trending up." This means that North Dakota:

• Demonstrated results in many categories
• Provides leadership in the use of modernization to change entrenched practices and prepare for sustainable operations
• Has incentives for collaboration in place
