Developing the Product Management Practice in Government

Session Category Project Management & Consulting Audience Intermediate

This session will explore the development of the "product mindset" and product management practice within government digital services teams, specifically focusing on utilizing Drupal as a vehicle to drive innovation and continuously offer value to constituents. GovHub is a Drupal-powered web publishing solution for over 90 Georgia State agencies. My team, Digital Services and Solutions Georgia, offers GovHub as a product for state agencies to publish content without the load of maintaining code, security, usability, and accessibility compliance.

In this session, we will touch on:
• GovHub as a product - how this Drupal-powered solution developed the product mindset of our team
• Agile product development - how our lean team works to deliver the maximum value each sprint
• Constituent-driven roadmaps - how our team prioritizes features development
• Drupal for the win - how the open source tool addresses Government-specific content, data, and security concerns to help our team focus on delivering a quality product to our agency customers
