| Summary: | “E-Government” refers to the use by government agencies of information
technologies (such as Wide Area Networks, the Internet, and mobile computing) that have
the ability to transform relations with citizens, businesses, and other arms of government
[The World Bank, 2009]. Today, governments around the world are riding on this
prevailing trend of e-Government to fundamentally change the way they operate externally
and internally. Besides applying the use of information and communication technology
(ICT), governments need an approach to measure how well they perform and identify
factors that might affect their performance in achieving e-Government maturity. This
research aims to study how Gross Domestic Product (GDP), human capital, ICT
infrastructure and the quality of governance have an impact on governments‟ ability to
obtain varying levels of e-Government maturity. It also studies, to what extend, these
factors have an influence on e-Government maturity using regression analysis. The results
from this research serve to provide some insights on how governments can go about
developing their e-Government maturity. |
