On May 23, 2012, President Obama issued a directive titled "
Building a 21st Century Digital Government
." It launches a comprehensive Digital Government Strategy aimed at delivering better digital services to the American people. The strategy complements several initiatives, including Executive Order 13571, "Streamlining Service Delivery and Improving Customer Service," and Executive Order 13576, "Delivering an Efficient, Effective, and Accountable Government."
The Federal Government must be able to deliver information and services to the American people anytime, anywhere and on any platform or device. For far too long, agencies delivered their information in programmatic silos, missing opportunities for coordination or collaborative partnerships. The Digital Government Strategy was developed to provide agencies with guidance on improving digital services and to enable the government to thrive within the fast-paced, ever-changing world of technology.
