What this community's for

We exist to:

• share information about how to deliver digital projects in the public sector,
• create the opportunity to share experiences, observed behaviours and best practice,
• give us space to discuss and challenge how we deliver government projects and products.

Who this community's for

If you're a public sector delivery manager then you've come to the right place :-)

You might be interested in the community if you use (or want to use) agile or waterfall methods to deliver government projects or products.

You don’t have to be in a software development team to join. We have community members from policy, capability and operations.
