Description
Modernizing the federal government's information technology (IT) infrastructure is critical to improving government services. This is a core theme in the President's Management Agenda (PMA), the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience Act (IDEA) and the IT Modernization Centers of Excellence. In most current federal environments, responsibilities for service delivery is separated across different areas within agencies. This results in a lack of understanding of the overall experience delivered to customers and a fractured approach to addressing CX at an enterprise level.
We are now in a new era where improving citizen services is a requirement. Agencies have implemented chief customer officers, agency program offices are taking responsibility for CX, and chief information officers have more accountability for the agency's digital CX strategies and experiences.
This summit will address how agencies must navigate legislation and guidance on modernizing IT to improve the customer's experience.
objectives
- Connect the information technology (IT) and customer experience (CX) communities to improve government services
- Assist agencies in navigating the complex environment and requirements now in place to create customer strategies, collect customer feedback, and improve websites
- Increase awareness about the importance of CX to the citizen, the government, and the country

Panel: Keys to CX Success and IT Modernization Description: GSA created the IT Modernization Centers of Excellence (CoE) in 2018 to focus on assisting agencies in improving cloud adoption, consolidating data centers, improving the customer experience, modernizing contact centers and leveraging data and analytics for decision making. In April 2018, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) became the lighthouse agency to use the Center's of Excellence for discovery and assessment (Phase 1) of the current state within the agency and implementation of strategies (Phase 2) recommended based on discovery. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is the second agency using CoEs and in Phase 1 of the IT modernization process. The panel will address lessons learned, solutions, and best practices implemented in these agencies.

Panel: Building CX into IT Modernization Description: Federal agencies spend considerable dollars of their information technology (IT) budget on operations and maintenance. The Modernizing Government Technology (MGT) Act gives federal agencies the authority to create working capital funds to pay for their IT modernization initiatives by using funds saved from other initiatives. The goal of IT modernization is to provide a better customer experience both internally and externally while creating efficiencies and reducing costs associated with legacy systems that are not interoperable with today's modern technologies. This panel will address how three agencies have taken different approaches to ensure customer experience strategies are integrated into all IT modernization efforts.
