History and Mission

The Digital Services Coalition was established to address challenges in how digital services are procured and delivered within the U.S. government. The founding members were inspired by the failure of HealthCare.gov and the need to modernize government technology systems, improve procurement processes, and ensure the delivery of user-centered digital services that better meet the needs of the public.

As an industry association, the Digital Services Coalition serves as a forum for companies involved in agile software development, user-centered design, and emerging technologies to learn about public sector digital transformation initiatives.

The coalition's stated mission is to create a fairer and more transparent environment for government technology procurement while ensuring that digital services meet the evolving needs of the public.[2] Its work aligns with broader federal initiatives such as the U.S. Digital Service (USDS) and 18F, which focus on modernizing government technology.
