Our vision
The Centre for Digital Public Services (CDPS) was established in 2020 as an arms-length body of Welsh Government to help deliver the Digital Strategy for Wales, with a focus on Mission 1: digital services.
We support people, teams and organisations to create sustainable digital transformation, and make public services:
- designed around the people who use them
- simple, secure, and convenient
- accessible, inclusive, and cost-effective
By applying user-centred design and agile ways of working, we help teams build public services that work for everyone in Wales.
