Dave Clark to lead DIA’s Government App Programme

Dave Clark has been appointed by the Department of Internal Affairs as a key delivery partner for the Government App Programme.

The app programme is an initiative designed to make it easier for New Zealanders to interact with government services.

“We’re bringing our rich experience in user-centred design, secure digital infrastructure and scalable technology solutions to help build a platform that’s intuitive, inclusive and future-ready,” says Jonathan Tillick, group digital director at Dave Clark.

The app will serve as a gateway for Kiwis to access a wide range of government services, securely and on their terms.

Dave Clark will be working alongside MATTR, who will provide the digital wallet technology that powers the app’s credential and identity features.

The Dave Clark team have started work already, with a deadline to deliver core functionality by the end of 2025.

“We’re proud to be developing a solution that brings the Government’s vision to life. This app is a meaningful step toward a more accessible and responsive public service, designed to benefit all Kiwis.

“We believe in designing with purpose and building with integrity, and we look forward to delivering a product that will serve everyone across the country,” says Tillick.
