Digital Service Standard criteria by the Australian Digital Tranformation Agency

Digital Service Standard criteria by the Australian Digital Tranformation Agency

A bit of context 

As the UK government did it, the Digital Tranformation Agency of Australia also has published what they call the Digital Service Standard criteria. 

What I like about it 

It's hard to say if the Australian standard came before the UK one, and frankly I don't really care.

What I find interesting is that two countries took inspiration from one another to create a set of standards to ensure their services work as they should. I think many organizations could follow such an inspiration and adapt the standard to their particular context and use them as a sort of checklist that helps to verify the quality of a service.

I found this document first in a blog post by Cathy Woods. The image you see above is taken from the 2016 Annual Report of the Digital Transformation Agency.
You can find the latest up to date version of the Digital Service Standard criteria here.
