UK Digital Government Service (Cabinet Office)
One year jump on the US Digital Government Strategy. Since April 2011 has:
• Consolidated all central government departments, 10 Downing, and all embassies
• Consolidated/eliminated more than 1,700 websites
• Saved a projected £1.4 billion to £2.2 billion annually
• Won major awards

04/2011: GOV.UK (continued)
• http://www.flickr.com/photos/benterrett/7041509709/
• https://www.gov.uk/designprinciples
Established Digital Principles
• Digital by default
• Putting users first
• Learning from the journey
• Building a network of trust
• Moving barriers aside
• Creating an environment for
technology leaders to flourish
• Don't do everything yourself
(you can't)
Established Design Principles
• Start with needs*
(*user needs not government needs)
• Do less
• Design with data
• Do the hard work to make it simple
• Iterate. Then iterate again.
• Build for inclusion
• Understand context
• Build digital services, not websites
• Be consistent, not uniform
• Make things open: it makes things
better
And UK is not alone: Australia, Belgium, Chile,
Germany, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, etc.
