City's CTO stepping down, returning to management consulting for now

Allan Frank, the city's first chief technology officer, announced he'll be leaving his post by Feb. 1, reports Technically Philly.

As recent as this month, Frank spoke at a government employees meet up group about his forthcoming plans for the city's IT direction. Frank will maintain some ties, serving as chair of the newly formed Mayor's Advisory Board on Technology, in which he will remain involved in these projects.

"In actuality, there is no perfect time to leave," Frank told Technically Philly. "I am confident in the new DOT leadership and talent I have attracted to continue the momentum."

Frank first joined city government in July 2008 as Mayor Nutter's Chief Information Officer. A year later, in July 2009, Frank was officially made the city's first Chief Technology Officer, consolidating IT from 33 city agencies.
