Boston’s journey to rethinking the public service experience
Boston’s new website, and associated new designs, launched in 2016 and it marked a pivotal shift in working for the digital public experience. There was a new team on the org chart, a « Digital » Team. What did all this mean for user experience and design thinking at the City? While the launch of the new Boston.gov has led to tremendous improvements, our work here is never done. Where are we now? Where has the new digital brand grown, and where has it stagnated? When can rebranding be a catalyst for change, and when is it not enough? What is the purpose of a modern design framework in public service? Come to learn, discuss, and reflect on this case study of the public service experience.
