2 C o n t e n t s A. Introduction B. Emergence of E-Government C. Two Cases of E-Government E-Government Issues to Improve Governance

3 A. Introduction Internet Growth in Korea and E-Government Initiatives

4 Global Trend of Internet Internet Changes Everything Government Commerce Education

5 Internet Growth in Korea Aggressive IT Policy First National Computer Project(1987) : Networks, Databases Information Superhighways [ mid 90 s ] Internet Diffusion : National Information Infrastructure (NII) Infrastructure Contents, Applications

6 Internet Explosion and Electronic Government E-Government Internet Users 32 Millions Convenience Quality of Life G4C : Representing the e-gov t Initiatives INV : IT Project for Local Areas Global Trends of Internet

7 Five Major Networks and Applications National Administrations Information System(NAIS) Financial Information System Education and Research Information System National Defense Information System National Security Information System

8 KII (Korea s Information Infrastructure) Response to the National Information Infrastructure (NII), or Information Superhighway, created in the developed countries Establishment of social and cultural environment Development of HW and SW facilities Providing the base for current Internet explosion in Korea Providing a vision for IT infrastructure that would be a key factor in the successful transition of Korea into an advanced economy

15 B. Emergence of E-Government Information Sharing and Government Portal

16 E-gov : Effective Tool for Government Innovation and Governance Improvement The way government agencies do their businesses citizen services are delivered IT resources are managed Tool for the development of participatory government Citizens desire to participate in the policy making process to monitor operating procedures for transparency

17 Components of E-Government Efficient, Transparent Government Central Gov t High Speed Networks Local Gov t Information Sharing Electronic Document Interchange System Citizens Government Portal Site ( Internet Access to Gov t Services Entrepreneurs

18 Cores of E-government Information Sharing Government Portal Broadband Networks Electronic Document System

19 Emerging Stages of E-Gov On Line Presence of Gov (UN) Emerging, Enhanced, Interactive, Transactional, Networked On Line Service Delivery (OECD) On Line Publication, Interactive, Transactions, Data Sharing Real Promise of E-Gov (IBM) On Line Gov, Interactive Gov, Integrated Gov, On Demand

20 On the Top of E-Government Networked, Data Sharing, and On Demand are featured by - Integrated Business Process - One Stop Service Delivery Process Integration and One Stop Service are realized by - Information Sharing - Government Portal

21 Information Sharing Each service cut across a number of agencies Citizenship, Ownership of lands and vehicles, etc. Information Sharing System Government appearing online as one entity Less trips to government offices Less documents for verification to submit

22 Government Portal Backgrounds Inconveniences in government services and information delivery Size and complexity of the government Single Window (Life-event Portal) Which official in which department at which level for which program Citizens moving into a position of being active players with government services and information provided

23 Where there is the Internet, there is access to public services. - Single window for Online Citizen Services at egov.go.kr. - Citizens can obtain required documents through the Internet at their home without having to visit government offices. - The service was launched on Nov , and was dubbed the G4C(Government for Citizens).

34 Coordination The Greatest Challenge in the e-gov initiatives Varying levels and kinds of risk and incentives Many Stakeholders Push for policies they desire. Evade policies they disagree Ad-hoc Committee ( ~ 03. 1) Fully supported by the President, Regular Briefing Effective coordination controlled by the Committee Driving the success of the e-gov t initiatives Presidential Committee on Government Innovation & Decentralization Subcommittee on e-gov [ 03.3 ~]

35 Supply Push or Demand Pull? Proponents of Demand Pull - What Services are worth Huge Money on IT? - Expensive Solution for no Corresponding Problem Supply Siders - Impossible to Predict Demand Until the Supply is Available - Supply First to Create Demand Early Players of E-Gov were Supply Siders - Funding Mechanism - U$200 Million Earmarked on NAIS in 1987

36 Funding and Payoffs Performance Evaluation - Show me the Measures - What Gets Measured, Gets Done Difficulties in Measuring IT Outcomes - Invisible Outcomes, Take Time to Effect - Productivity Paradox

37 The Productivity Paradox No one could find evidence that the billions of dollars organizations had spent on IT in the 1980s and early 1990s was having any affect on productivity. You can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics. -- University of Chicago economist Robert Solow

38 E-Gov Implementation for Innovation - IT Project or Process Reengineering? E-gov is more about government than about e Business Analysis Process Reengine ering Remove Duplicates Streamline Processes Applying IT Infrastructure of E-Gov Supporting Innovation

39 Citizen Engagement The Adoption of the e-gov Services by Citizen Citizens feel real benefits from familiar services Services fully online [ from application to delivery ] Overcome the security concerns on private information Make public availability of exact services Induce citizens to have realistic expectations Get citizens familiar with services

40 Five Ways to Boost E-Gov Adoption Make it Mandatory Create Incentives to Move to the Digital Channel Advertise Form Partnerships with the Private Sector Change the Culture

41 Future Directions of E-Government E-Government that provides customeroriented, valuable services Value in hand, but Invisible Government Offering Services that Create Value Enhanced environment for Citizen Participation Innovation of Administrations Process Enhanced International Cooperation Strengthened Ubiquitous Infrastructure
