Measuring and Justifying the Government Experience

Announcing the CX Maturity Model
Announcing the CX Maturity Model—A recent executive order on improving customer experience and service delivery holds 17 agencies accountable for 36 specific commitments, but it is a call to action for the entire federal government. The Customer Experience Center of Excellence (CX CoE) has created a Maturity Model, a framework to help organizations transform their federal service delivery. It is designed to provide organizations with a deeper understanding of how to measure their maturity level, and tactics to get to the next level. Although the CX Maturity Model does not represent or constitute official guidance, it can help you take your organization’s CX Maturity to the next level. Tailor the model to meet your agency’s specific needs.— via The Centers of Excellence

Learn about some of our initiatives that best display these principles.
