CGI helps agencies use a variety of tools to develop their digital strategies and roadmaps. These methods include: digital awareness sessions with leadership to provide a common view of digital opportunities, threats and the unique requirements of regulations such as FedRAMP; value assessments of digital initiatives to quantify business impacts; critical information assessments to ensure IT aspects of the transformation are enabled; and user experience studies.

Finally, digital solutions must provide simple, intuitive interfaces and embrace the intersection of digital and data, where an organization’s rich data assets and deep analytical capabilities enrich every part of the UX. CGI understands this principle and has the tools to enable it.
