The Obama administration wants “to disrupt the federal government” with its new digital strategy, federal Chief Technology Officer Todd Park said.

President Obama said the wide-ranging strategy aims to make government services available “anytime, anywhere, and on any device.” He directed each agency to choose two citizen services to release on a mobile platform by next year.

Officials of the Office of Management and Budget said they will centralize purchasing of mobile devices and create a common platform across government. As a step in that direction, GSA plans to issue a blanket purchasing agreement for smart phones, Federal Computer Week reported.

“Nearly everyone is carrying smart devices in their pocket,” Federal Chief Information Officer Steven VanRoekel said in a media conference call. “…They are demanding to interface with their government the same way they interface with their favorite social media websites or travel websites or things like that.”

A new Presidential Innovation Fellows program will bring in private-sector experts to team with government officials on “game-changing projects,” Park said. The fellows will serve six- to twelve-month terms and will be paid by federal agencies.

“Basically what we’re looking for is bad-ass innovators,” Park said in at the Digital Crunch conference in New York May 23.

One of the fellows’ first projects will be creation of RFP-EZ, a way for the government to cut red tape in buying innovative solutions from small companies. Park described it as “a new process and platform that enables the federal government to do business much more easily with startups and very, very innovative, high-growth small companies.”

Another project will build on an initiative by the Agency for International Development to pay contractors via mobile devices.

OMB has frozen the dot-gov digital domain while it makes plans to consolidate federal websites. VanRoekel said there are currently 1,800 top-level dot-gov domains and 30,000-40,000 websites.

The strategy calls for making more government data available to the public and industry in electronic form. Officials said that will open the way for new applications, just as the release of weather and GPS navigational data spawned new businesses.

“We need to make open data the new default,” VanRoekel said. “…Some of the things that get us most excited are the apps yet to come, that we haven’t imagined.”
