Digital transformation improves public services by integrating digital technology. The rapid use of digital technology in the public sector may marginalize groups without access to or familiarity with digital platforms. This can create a digital divide, worsening inequities by leaving people who cannot access digital services behind. This research will examine public service delivery digital transformation projects and their effects on local governments. The study uses a thorough literature evaluation and case studies of digital transformation projects in different nations. Scopus was used to find relevant content and current public sector digitization research, papers, and publications and they were examined. The study included a variety of opinions on the issue. The assessment found that digital transformation improves efficiency, citizen involvement, and government accountability in public service delivery. Digital transformation may face obstacles that must be overcome. This research demonstrated that improving organizational efficiency, meeting citizen expectations, and responding to superior demands from higher authorities drive digital change in public service delivery. This study stresses technological readiness as a critical driver of local government digital transformation. Opponents’ concerns should be addressed in future research and practice, such as digital service delivery inclusivity and accessibility, cost and resource management, and data security and privacy.
