Service delivery with security
Within the UK Civil Service, DDaT teams play a vital role in designing, delivering, and maintaining high-quality public services. They bring together expertise in service design, software engineering, user research, data analysis, and technical operations to ensure government services are accessible, effective, and user-centred.
Developing a successful DDaT function is about more than meeting headcount. It requires creating a multidisciplinary culture, aligning with Government Digital Service (GDS) standards, and embedding agile, user-focused ways of working. Well-structured teams enable departments to respond quickly to change while delivering value to citizens.

Our DDAT approach
The process begins by reviewing organisational priorities, delivery requirements, and the current digital capability within the department or agency. This ensures that team structures and roles are designed to meet both short-term delivery needs and long-term strategic goals.
Recruitment and onboarding processes are tailored to attract and retain talent within the Civil Service framework. Where possible, existing staff are upskilled through targeted training in areas such as agile delivery, service design, and data management.
Clear governance, performance measures, and continuous improvement practices are embedded from the outset. By fostering knowledge sharing across departments and building a sustainable skills base, DDaT teams become an enduring asset – capable of delivering digital services that meet both user needs and government priorities.
