Can anyone with some knowledge of the GDS explain how they seem to be doing such a good job? It just seems impossible that someone somewhere in Government got something right for a change and brought this team in and let them get on with it.

- I know Government projects get a lot of flak, rightly or wrongly but they always seemed to be awarded to companies like Capgemini who would spend £100's of millions achieving much less. I could be wrong.

They have been allowed to just link to the old government websites for lots of things so they didn't have to create a feature complete drop in for the old site(s). I think this has made it much easier easy to make a nice looking site.
