  2. Module 1 Objectives • Provide an overview of the global trends in e-governance • Discuss the status of e-governance in the Arab region and in Iraq • Define key terminologies including content, content management, portal and portal management • Describe the technological trends affecting content management and portal management • Highlight the strategic directions and challenges in content management and portal management

  3. Status of e-Governance • According to the United Nations e-Government Survey 2012, progress in online service delivery continues in most countries • Many countries have an e-governance strategy in place • Most countries have established a national e-governance portal

  5. UN e-Gov Survey Indices • Online services – public websites and services at different levels of maturity • Telecommunication – computers, Internet users, phone lines, mobile/fixed subscriptions • Human capital – adult literacy rate, gross education enrolment • e-Participation – information sharing, consultation, decision-making

  6. Barriers and Challenges • Low levels of e-governance uptake even in developed countries • The digital divide further impedes the uptake of e-governance • Internal challenges include inefficient and ineffective government processes and mindsets, and political regulatory and budgetary constraints • Citizens are increasingly expecting government to go beyond online service delivery, moving from what the technological developments can do, to what citizens want

  7. The Digital Divide The digital divide separates people in several ways: • It can mean separation between those who have access to technology versus those who do not • It separates those who have access to information versus those who do not • It creates a separation between those who are able to successfully use ICTs versus those who are not able to

  9. Global e-Governance Trends • Countries are moving to an integrated unified whole-of-government model • Countries are paying closer attention to multichannel service delivery • Countries are engaging more closely with citizens

  10. Whole-of-government Model • From silos to an integrated approach • Driven by various societal forces such as: • Growing complexity of problems that call for collaborative responses • Increased demand from citizens for more personalized and accessible public services • Opportunities presented by the Internet to transform

  11. Whole-of-government Model • The product of this model is an integrated one-stop portal • Two approaches: • One national integrated portal e.g. Australia, Bahrain, Denmark, Israel, NZ, Norway, Qatar, Republic of Korea, UAE, USA • More than one portal, with thematic and/or functional services integrated in a manner that finds e-information separate from e-services or e-participation. e.g. Most countries from the European Union

  12. Multichannel Service Delivery • The provision of public services by various means in an integrated and coordinated way so that users receive consistent information and services across channels • Driven by: • Diverse needs and demands of citizens for services • Reach out to as many people as possible, no matter how poor, illiterate or isolated

  13. Multichannel Service Delivery • Mix of channels, complemented by human interaction and networks • Online – web portal, website, email, online chat • Mobile devices – mobile web, mobile application, SMS, cell broadcasting • Telephone and fax • Contact centre - can handle voice, Internet and written channels (fax and regular mail) • Community service centres or telecentres or kiosks • Government counters

  14. Citizen Centric – Why? • Governments recognize that the benefits of e-governance services are very much determined by the number and type of users of these services, and the frequency of their use • Citizens uptake of e-governance services generally low, e.g. 32% in EU countries • A shift from what services governments can provide to what citizens really need • The focus on citizen-centric portal design, conduct of customer survey satisfaction and involvement of citizens in consultations and decision-making processes are evidence of this trend

  15. Degree of Citizen Engagement • The United Nations e-Government Survey measures the degree of e-participation against three benchmarks: • Does the national government publish information on items under consideration? (e-information) • Are there ways for the public to engage in consultations with policy makers, government officials and one another? (e-consultation) • Can citizens directly influence decisions, for example by voting online or using a mobile telephone? (e-decision-making)

  16. Right to Information • Provide the right to access official documents and other information held by government bodies, subject to exemptions for certain sensitive information • Recognized as a fundamental human right • Linked to accountability and good governance

  17. Open Data • Governments opening previously “locked-up” data sets • Providing raw data to their citizens • Citizens using raw data to produce mashups

  40. Definitions Content Content Management Content Management System Enterprise Content System Portal Portal Management

  41. Content… • Content management is the set of processes and technologies that support the planning, collection, development, editing, publishing, preservation and evaluation of information in any form or medium • In recent times this information is typically referred to as content or, to be precise, digital content • Digital content may take the form of: • Text (such as electronic documents) • Multimedia files (such as audio or video files) or • Other file type that requires management

  42. Content… • In a content management process, digital content may be created by one or more authors • Over time that content may be edited • One or more individuals may provide some editorial oversight thereby approving the content for publication • Publishing may take many forms. Publishing may be the act of making the content accessible to all users, or granting digital access rights to certain content to a particular person or group of persons • Later that content may be superseded by another form of content and thus retired or removed from use This is an example of a content lifecycle

  43. Content… Content management is a collaborative process. It often consists of the following basic roles and responsibilities: • Creator – responsible for creating and editing content • Editor – responsible for tuning the content message and the style of delivery, including translation and localization • Publisher – responsible for releasing the content for use • Administrator – responsible for managing access permissions to folders and files, usually accomplished by assigning access rights to user groups or roles. Administrators may also assist and support users in various ways • User/viewer – the person who reads or otherwise takes in content after it is published or shared This process is governed by a set of rules, standards and workflows

  44. Content… • A content management system is a system of hardware and software that enables different people (technical and non-technical) to collaboratively create, edit, manage and publish (in a number of formats) a variety of content (text, graphics, video, documents), whilst being constrained by a set of rules, standards and workflows to ensure coherent, validated digital content

  45. Content… • Key features of a content management system include the following: • Allows those without programming language knowledge to manage digital content • Standard templates available for different content types (e.g. news, events, blogs) • Able to tag and categorize content • Able to track and manage multiple versions of a single instance of content • Manages permissions for different users • Controls workflow of different content • Includes configurations for search engine optimization • Provides data and access security

  46. Content… • Enterprise content management is the strategies, methods and tools used to capture, manage, store, preserve, and deliver content and documents related to organizational processes • An umbrella term covering: • Document management • Web content management • Search • Collaboration • Records management • Digital asset management • Workflow management

  47. Portal… • A web portal is a website that brings information from diverse sources in a unified way • e-Governance portals are one of the most popular channel for offering government services online • Portals designed around the needs of citizens or businesses are on the rise • The goal of these portals is to provide “one-stop shopping” or “single window” for public information and services so that citizens, businesses and government employees no longer need to go to different ministries, departments or agencies to find information or complete a transaction • e-Governance portals let governments reach out to the citizens around the globe and around the clock as an integrated and single entity

  48. Portal Management Front-end aspects are those functions and features that are visible to the users of the portal. They include: • The design, organization, navigation, usability and findability of the portal • The types and number of services offered • The availability and accessibility, including access through multiple channels and access to all users, including poor, marginalized and disabled groups • The increase of citizens’ use of the e-services through awareness and education campaigns • The promotion of accountability and transparency • The incorporation of security and privacy and the development of citizens’ trust in the use of e-services

  49. Portal Management The back-end involves the internal operations of a government that support core processes and are not accessible or visible to the general public. They include: • Business process reengineering to analyse, streamline, consolidate and integrate the steps in a service • Change management and motivating personnel • Increasing the capacity of the ICT infrastructure to handle the information, services and traffic volumes, cope with a variety of channels and ensure the security of online transactions • Defining the ICT architecture that includes development of policies, standards and guidelines for building the ICT infrastructure, including e-government interoperability framework and national enterprise architecture • Defining the information architecture that includes a taxonomy, content workflow, and web design and web content guidelines
