  2. Accessibility Service Canada Quality and Satisfaction Service Improvement EnablingPlatform Government On-Line Government On-Line will improve services... In-Person Telephone Internet …across all channels

  3. According to Canadians, an on-line government... • Satisfaction with government services is strongly linked to overall satisfaction with the government’s performance • 73% of Canadians who use our Internet-based services are very satisfied with the overall quality • 78% think Government On-Line will improve their overall relationship with Government • 60% of young Canadians say they will conduct the majority of their dealings with government on the Internet in the next five years …is a smart government

  4. Towards a GOL vision • Using information and communications technology to enhance Canadians’ access to improved citizen-centred, integrated Government of Canada information and services, anytime, anywhere and in the official language of their choice. • Core assumption: • GOL is a service initiative: designed to both improve and increase services.

  5. GOL Guiding Principles - Benefits to Canadians For Canadians, GOL electronic services must be: • Accessible to all • Of direct benefit: easy to use, organised to meet Canadians’ priorities (citizen-centric), save time/effort/cost, improve quality and level of service; increase the range of service offerings • Private and secure, generate trust and respond to citizen demands • Shaped by Canadians’ input and constant feedback

  6. GOL Guiding Principles - Consequences for Government To achieve benefits to citizens, the GOL initiative must be: • Co-ordinated: to achieve progress across GOC (common infrastructure, policies, etc.) • Collaborative: across departments and jurisdictions, involve the private and not-for profit sectors • Cost neutral across service delivery channels: increase use of self-service channels for routine transactions • Transformative: move towards service re-engineering and integration, over time, where it makes sense • Innovative: use proven best-of-breed technologies and private sector partnerships

  7. Implementing the GOL guiding principles • Five key components to GOL: • on-line delivery of critical mass of key client services • shared infrastructure to support interoperability, service integration, cross-channel integration and reduce overall costs • policy frameworks and standards that promote citizen trust, ease of use, and accessibility • service improvement; measurement; communications; user feedback • an HR strategy to ensure the right skills for electronic and other service delivery

  8. Electronic Service Delivery: Setting Priorities • Putting about 200 key client services on-line by 2004 will meet GOL commitment BUT • Won’t necessarily result in service offerings that meet test of client centricity -- electronic “silos” rather than integrated bundles of related services • May not capture efficiencies possible through consolidation of back-end systems or re-use of common business applications • May not be aligned with departmental resources and capacity

  9. Electronic Service Delivery: Setting Priorities ... Three approaches to determine the nature and sequence of electronic service delivery examined: • departments set their own priorities for the transformation of 200 key services • gateways and clusters play a role in influencing departmental service transformation priorities and identifying efficiency opportunities • corporate identification of opportunities for integration or efficiencies

  10. Gateway / cluster approach - what it might look like • What: 100% of 200 key services on-line, organized by gateway and cluster priorities • How: sequence of on-line services to be based on priorities that reflect citizen/clients benefits, as well as efficiencies/cost avoidance,and are agreed to by gateway and/or cluster management committees; central funding to accelerate “top 30” • Interim targets: would be set by client priorities • Integration: opportunities for efficiencies would be identified, likely focussing on common front-office access (rather than integrated processing or common back-end systems)

  11. All key departments are involved

  12. Cluster framework already in place on the Canada site... Government of Canada Portal (www.canada.gc.ca) Business Canadians Foreign Clients Subject Clusters Start-up Financing Taxation Regulations HR Others Jobs Health Taxes Youth Seniors Others Going to Canada Canada & the World Doing business with Canada Others …around the priorities of three client groups

  13. Gateways and Clusters ... Canadians Aboriginal Peoples About Canada Canadians Living Abroad Children & Youth Consumer Information Culture, Heritage & Recreation Economy Environment, Resources Financial Assistance & Entitlements Health Jobs, Workers, Training and Careers Justice and the Law Life Events: Lost I.D. Newcomers to Canada Persons with Disabilities Public Safety Rural & Remote Services Science & Technology Seniors Taxes Travel at Home & Abroad Voluntary Sector Canadian Business Financing Human Resources/Employment Business Statistics and Analysis Innovation / R&D / Technology Exporting / Importing Mergers, Acquisitions and Bankruptcy Regulations / Legislation Selling to Government / Tenders Business Start Up Taxation Non-Canadians Arts & Culture Canada and the World Doing Business with Canada Going to Canada Priorities in Focus Testing

  14. Key issues • Service integration -- across departments and across jurisdictions • Cross-channel management and integration • Client relationship management • Security and privacy • Engaging citizens in a meaningful way

  15. We are on the right track, but need to maintain momentum… • Canada no. 1 among 22 nations -- ahead of the US, the UK and Australia (Accenture) • Citizen-centred approach with gateways and subject clusters in the re-design of Canada’s main website at www.canada.gc.cais key factor • Remaining a leader requires collaboration across departments and across jurisdictions -- on service integration and cross-channel management …to meet the 2004 goal
