This document outlines an approach to adapting service design for government contexts called "Four & Twenty Pi". It discusses moving from a customer service model to a more customer-centric model. It recommends that organizations use their internal resources wisely, relinquish some control to encourage ownership, and view designers as guides rather than doing the work. Designers should teach skills like empathy and interviewing. Both organizations and designers should focus on capability development through action rather than perfection.
