GDSTom Scott
Why have assessments?
• Ensures all services have the same high standard• Protect the integrity of GOV.UK• A checkpoint to meeting the standard• shares knowledge• unblocks problems
![Page 18: Self certification training for departmental assessors](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e858eaf7959ed6d8b6f48/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
GDSTom Scott
So far
• Since April 2014 28 assessments
• It’s been really interesting, we’ve learnt about• fishing in lakes• different types of HGVs• how elections really work• and so much more
• They work best as a conversation
• Everyone want’s the same outcome!

GDSTom Scott
Why can’t GDS do the assessments?
• there are around 700 services linked to from GOV.UK
• that could be over 2100 assessments
• which would take us over 9 years• not very agile• not all services are the same
![Page 21: Self certification training for departmental assessors](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e858eaf7959ed6d8b6f48/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
GDSTom Scott
What services does GDS assess?
• all exemplars from departments GDS is helping to transform
• all high volume services• those over 100k transactions a year• could be 300 or more assessments
• any high risk services identified by the Office of CTO

What happens in an assessment?
• round the table discussion• Service Manager leads with an description of the service and demonstration• the assessment panel ask questions based on the standard• 3 days later the result and report are sent to the Digital Leader and the Service Manager

Self-certification must be

• collaborative• more of a review

GDSTom Scott
The assessment
Try to keep to this structure•welcome the team•ask the Service Manager to explain the reason the service has been developed
•ask for a demonstration of the service•follow the assessors prompts sheet and ask lots of questions
It can take some time...• anywhere between 1 and 3 hours
Get the right people in the room• service manager, tech arc, analyst etc. for both assessors and the team
![Page 32: Self certification training for departmental assessors](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e858eaf7959ed6d8b6f48/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
GDSTom Scott
What should you ask?
Use the assessor prompts sheet• example questions• clear evidence needed to pass a stage
Try to get to know the service manual• has great guidance and advice
Is the service similar to another you already use?
Are there points the service has not met yet?• saves time and embarrassment
![Page 33: Self certification training for departmental assessors](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e858eaf7959ed6d8b6f48/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
GDSTom Scott
What to do next?
Don’t make a decision there and thenTake some time and review the service with fresh eyes• is it simple enough to use first time• has it got the look, feel and tone of GOV.UK• have users been considered throughout the development• can the service change in the future
Concerns• check with the Service Manager• speak to us at GDS
![Page 34: Self certification training for departmental assessors](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546e858eaf7959ed6d8b6f48/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
GDSTom Scott
After an assessment
Complete the assessor prompts sheet• try to put in as much detail as you can, be collaborative• remember the standard is a minimum
Write a short summary of the service and the review• this is needed for the certificate• share this with your Digital Leader• decide which criteria have passed, not passed or are not applicable
Try to meet the Digital Leader• it’s in the Service Manager interest, get them to help• complete the online certificate, use the details sheet to help• ask your Digital Leader to ‘Sign’ the form
