  10. The evolution of e-Governance

  11. How to pay for e-Governance initiatives • Charging fees to citizens (There are hidden costs in poorly delivered free services) • Optimization of Resource allocation • Increased tax revenues due to better compliance. • Revenues from add-on services. • Sharing development and operating costs with private sector partners

  12. Problems with e-governance implementations • Most governments have not changed their processes in any way, and instead have automated flawed processes • There is a big gulf between a “pretty web site” and integrated service delivery • Government budgets and administration tends to be in departmental silos, but e-government cuts across departments • Too much attention to “citizen portals” has taken attention away from internal government functioning and govt. to business • Even best in class state and local e-government solutions have not gained widespread adoption • Governments often underestimate the security, infrastructure, and scalability requirements of their applications

  13. Lessons: • Clear justification for projects • Clarity about costs and benefits • Balancing cost, payoff, and risk in implementation • Use appropriate technology • Appropriate Sustainability Model • Citizens are willing to pay, if they see real value • Private sector involvement can defray costs • Institutional Framework • Use government experts with IT training, not IT experts • Insource strategy; Outsource design and development • Project management • Think big, start small, scale fast • Celebrate early wins, celebrate reasoned failures • Focus on training and change management
