Tech procurement requires a different approach than other buying styles, and the DITAP development program from the Office of Management and Budget and U.S. Digital Services aims to give participants a hands-on approach to best practices.
According to the director of the Digital Service at VA, the program's success is measured in both completed tech projects and a culture shift within agencies.
In its annual report to Congress, the U.S. Digital Service (USDS) outlined steps seven federal agencies are taking to digitize government services. These efforts should be commended as they seek to make government more efficient and more responsive.
