Brief Notes on Public Administration & e-Government - define government
Dr. S. Koner,
MBA Professor
e-Government is as variëd and complex as Government itself. While Government is a dynamic mixture of goals, structures, and functions that serve mulTIPle and diverse constituencies, e-Government initiatives incorporate technology to improve the way it serves those constituencies.
Any e-Government portal offers a varied bouquet of services. Citizens can apply for the issuance of birth certificates and replace national ID cards, view their phone and electricity bills, check for outstanding traffic fines, renew their driving licenses and apply for entry to state universities. Tourists, meanwhile, can file complaints, while other features are provided for exporters, including taxation and customs services.
Using the Internet portals to create one-stop shops is one currently popular e-Government approach to improving the delivery of public services to citizens.
Many e-Government IT investment planning processes now require some analysis of the costs and returns expected from that proposed investment. Unfortunately, public sector managers often lack models that can guide them through such analyses.
The Internet is primarily a communications medium, not a space to do things, other than buy the odd book, CD or bottle of wine. And yet there are hundreds of projects up and down the country, online communities, pressure groups and learning centres where e-Government is happening.
e-Government impacts the way we interact with Government agencies at all levels, whether that interaction takes place through telephone, fax, e-mail, a Web site, or directly into a data base.
E-Government can also serve as the catalyst for export promotion, foreign direct investment, local manufacturer promotion, transparency and democracy, and social and human capital development.
You must bring clarity and definition to the role of Customer Relationship Management within local authorities and support councils in delivering modern, successful, and effective local Government services.
Online service delivery provides enormous opportunities to Government, individuals and business. For Government, online service delivery presents ways for more efficiently and effectively delivering services to citizens, while at the same time providing savings.
e-Government e-Commerce is the transaction of money for Government services, or vice versa, Government purchasing. People can pay Federal taxes electronically and many states are following suit by beginning to accept online tax payments.
An e-Government key factor… is the implementation phase. Usually governments underestimate this phase focusing instead mostly on design and development.
New technologies are changing the way that law enforcement investigates suspected criminals from tracking e-mails and eaves dropping cellular phone calls. These examples of e-Government, and many others, show how IT is changing the way we share information, transact business, and make decisions. Lawyers are among the many professionals impacted by these changes.
The number of people in the United States seeking Government-related information online increased 70% between 2000 and 2002, from 40 million in 2000 to 68 million in 2002, according to a Pew Internet and American Life study.
All surveys indicate strong demand for e-Government from citizens and business and significant benefits flowing from access to online services. Government agencies demonstrated significant improvements in efficiency and reduced costs. The findings provide strong support for the Better Services, Better Government strategy.
E-Government is about improving the work of all branches of Government, not just public administration in the narrow sense.
