Emergent Service Design for Governments and Public Sector Agencies

We
Are
What We Make It

What We Make It™ works with governments and public sector agencies—collaborating with their stakeholders, team members and citizens to reimagine the digital delivery of public services.

What We Believe

There is no one right way, there is onlyWhat We Make It

We believe that the best public service experiences are perpetually optimizing, matching service evolution with the pace of technological change and ever evolving user expectations. The best service experiences cannot be prescribed or imposed, they must be co-created. They are the result of radical collaboration and a collective thirst for exploring the unknown. We believe that there isn’t one right way for a service to be designed. There is only what we make it, together.

Collaborating With Us

Rapid Service Co-Discovery

Are you looking to better understand your next service design challenge as you work to set project direction and finalize scope requirements? Our Rapid Service Co-Discovery engagements are immersive experiences that get your service design teams rolling up their sleeves and co-creating with stakeholders at the critical stage of project formation.

Quickly gather user insights, uncover smarter ways of working, and harvest new ideas to take your service design to the next level.

Emergent Service Design

This is the bread and butter. Our core offering. Each engagement begins with a customized discovery process that immerses our team in the world of your users and stakeholders, working to better understand their needs, expectations and requirements while working with them to co-create service design solutions. We then prototype, test and iterate to arrive at comprehensive alpha-stage service designs and detailed user stories to power beta-phase service development.

We have worked extensively with the Government of Nova Scotia, Canada to digitally enable departmental work processes and reimagine the digital delivery of a wide range of public services.

Our recent work has included:

  • Provincial certification registry
  • Online courtrooms (e-court)
  • Immigration services
  • Legal case management systems and services
  • Public purchasing service delivery
