## Summary

This law creates a government-wide framework focused on **improving government service delivery**. It requires the Office of Management and Budget to appoint a Federal Government Service Delivery Lead and pushes agencies to measure and redesign how they deliver benefits and services. - Families, businesses, and organizations: Interactions across in-person, phone, mail, and digital channels will be measured and improved. Agencies must collect feedback and track metrics such as wait and processing times to make services easier, fairer, and more accessible. - Agencies: Each agency must name a senior service delivery official within one year who reports to the agency head and has authority to implement improvements. Officials must submit implementation plans and use data to guide changes. - Oversight and resources: The OMB Lead will set government-wide standards, align agency websites with the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience Act, and coordinate high-impact programs. OMB must report to Congress in 1 year and the Government Accountability Office must assess implementation in 2 years, and agencies must comply using existing funds.
