Simple Infrastructure in Measuring Countries e-Government
As alternative to existing e-government measuring
models, here proposed a new customer centric, service oriented,
simple approach for measuring countries e-Governments. If
successfully implemented, built infrastructure will provide a single egovernment
index number for countries. Main schema is as follows.
Country CIO or equal position government official, at the beginning
of each year will provide to United Nations dedicated web site 4
numbers on behalf of own country: 1) Ratio of available online
public services, to total number of public services, 2) Ratio of
interagency inter ministry online public services to total number of
available online public services, 3) Ratio of total number of citizen
and business entities served online annually to total number of citizen
and business entities served annually online and physically on those
services, 4) Simple index for geographical spread of online served
citizen and business entities. 4 numbers then combined into one index
number by mathematical Average function.
In addition to 4 numbers 5th number can be introduced as service
quality indicator of online public services. If in ordering of countries
index number is equal, 5th criteria will be used.
Notice: This approach is for country’s current e-government
achievement assessment, not for e-government readiness assessment.
