Effective use of data• Sharing of personal data to support delivery of joined up and personalised services
• Research and analysis, through data
linkage, to inform design of services
• Making data open and promoting data innovation
– transparency supports citizen engagement and accountability– allows analysis of data beyond publishing organisation– build on achievements on opening up spatial data– build on capacity for, and investments in, data analysis
• Cross cutting issues of skills, quality of data

mygovscot – Vision
A place for people in Scotland to access public services that are easy to find and simple to use – services so convenient, people choose digital first.
What is mygovscot?• A place online providing access to all public services in Scotland
• A change programme for informational and transactional services across the public sector
• A design philosophy – placing user needs at the centre of delivery
• A positive user experience – creating a central access point, providing clarity to the information and services that are available in Scotland
Why do we need it?• Exponential growth in content – confusion
• Inconsistent and often poor user experience
• Channel shift opportunity
• Doing it once rather than 100 + times [i.e. standard processes and functions for efficiency, design, look and feel for user experience]
• Cost efficiencies
Scope of change
• Public Bodies
• Health
• Partnership working and collaboration with Local Authorities
Approach to Delivery• Project Approach
– Agile method– The product will develop incrementally– Fine-tune requirements while they’re relatively easy to change– Mygovscot scope is potentially very large
• Release Schedule – The wider releases of mygovscot have been carefully planned – We’ve used the terminology Alpha and Beta for the 2 main
releases of mygovscot in 2014
LISTEN CREATE DELIVER
Collaborative, multidisciplinary, agile service design
Alpha• The philosophy behind the alpha release is to produce
a proof of concept to test certain theories around:• Approach to content creation and publishing• Technical architecture and design • Stakeholder engagement and collaboration across the Scottish Public Sector • External communication
• We plan to receive feedback while its still relatively easy to change the product and approach
• We’re on track for the first release of mygovscot to take place at the end of July 2014
Beta• During Beta our focus is on user benefits and producing a
useful product• We want to establish a strongly branded access point to public
services in Scotland• We plan to establish a wide breadth of content to help produce
a more complete information architecture for the site• This should realise significant user benefit by improving
findability of public services• Additionally we aim to establish a sustainable approach to
maintaining mygovscot content • Start to work in collaboration with public sector organisations
Standards & Guidelines• Standards – A set of requirements that a service must
implement, unless a specific exception is made.
• Recommendations – Recommendations should be implemented where it delivers benefits for the user and is cost effective to do so. This will initially focus on the endorsement of industry / open standards.
• Guidelines – Additional and supporting material that partners could consider if they lack existing capability in the relevant area.
• Support for change - The transformation team will work with you to implement the changes required to provide an enhanced user experience and cost efficiency.

Content
• Content inclusion– We’re taking an approach focused on prioritised user needs– Alongside the relationships these have with the public sector
• Publishing flow– Initial focus for alpha is internal, with a form of partnership model longer
term– We’re illustrating our thoughts from raw user needs to published content
Information Architecture• Browse navigation is using a two tier category approach in alpha, allowing
flexibility to move content items and to continuously improve categories
•Search aims to provide a robust, user friendly experience to surface content relevant to search queries – it’s our catalyst for improving browse
Information Architecture• Early thoughts on our approach to information architecture
will also include;– Straight forward, clear and beneficial meta data for all content items– A basic taxonomy to identify terms (parent / child), their respective
relationships and what the connections are – with the approach being matured over time
– We will use current examples wherever possible e.g. Linked Data resources
