opportunity to provide a single entry point to a range of different services.
These programmes aim to deliver integrated, personalised and value-adding
Government e-Services.
Government service delivery has to go beyond ‘transactional’ to personalised. Areas
where personalised e-Services will add value include:
a) Content Subscription: Customers can subscribe to receive electronic versions of
policies opened for public consultations, budget debates, parliamentary proceedings
etc.;
b) Personalised Notifications: Customers can subscribe to receive weather and traffic
alerts by location; government fees and fines payment schedules; reminders for
events such as court hearings; and
c) Personalised Page: Customers can maintain and manage personal data and
interactions with the Government.
Change management will be important to the implementation and adoption of eServices. The process will be aided with public awareness and education programmes.
There will also be a review to ensure that the business model is viable for sustained
service delivery. In the longer term, all feasible Government services will be put online.
In addition, to ensure growing mass adoption of e-Services, the government has to also
gather and analyze customers’ behaviour and needs. The goal is to eventually offer
predictive services pushed to customers via advanced messaging and mobile
communication services.
