eG4M Keywords • eGovernment models and methodologies (e-Model) • socio-economic impact of information and comunication technologies in Mediterranean Countries (MCs) • network organization in public administration • ICT service oriented computing • ICT information and data quality
eG4M: Goals and motivations • To focus on new paradigms from sociological, economic, juridical, organizational, information technology research areas • To extend the e-Model according to these paradigms and make it suited for MCs • To develop (and provide) improved guidelines for E-model adoption will permit • to fulfill the requirements in assessing the e-readiness • To contribute at identifying actions to include in the implementation plan. • To support the political subjects involved in driving the eGovernment deployment
eG4M strategic roadmap time 10/2005 • e-Model as a starting point • Operative Plan • socio/org/econ/tech insights from the MC context • Experimentation with some institutions in MC • e-readiness assessment • strategic goals • strategic planning • Adaptation of the enhanced e-Model • Second experimentation • e-readiness assessment • strategic goals • strategic planning • … • eGov virtual incubator (laws access) 2 months 6 months 18 months 36 months

E-model implementation perspective • e-readiness • strategic goals • strategic plan 4.Project stages (WPs and deliverables) • Requirements collection • guidelines development • experimentation of guidelines • experimentation of services for e-Model enhancement (e.g. access to laws) • Specifications for e-Model enhancement
Involved Countries • Focus on the socio-economical impact of ICT on relationships among citizens, institutions and organizations within and between MCs. • Mediterranean Countries with their own cultural, social, and historical peculiarities. • Morocco • Lebanon • Jordan • ……………

Benefits for MCs • A final objective of the project will provide concrete benefits for MCs, resulting in • a set of tailored guidelines and best-practices to steer their own strategic and operational eGov plans. • awareness and training on access to national legislation services.
Critical success factors and risks • the success of the project stands on the capability to broadly expand the institutional relationships with MCs. • The enlargement of relationship network at institutional level is seen as an essential element to generate a wide awareness and trust about the effectiveness of the project results.
