This new EPSRC-funded project Viego breaks down the technical managerial social concept we’ve been using into more detail

Technical, including issues relating to:
• The need for flexible and scalable technology
• Privacy and security of available services
• Shared services(including common identity management)
• Standards, coordination and integration between government services and departments
• Identification and authentication
• Impact Analysis – whether on citizen or organisation
Social, including issues relating to:
• Engagement with citizens, government authorities and other stakeholders; considering
‘social value added’
• The need for a citizen-centric process
• Take up of electronic government services and incentivisation
• Diversity of different socio-economic and cultural factors within citizen groups
Organisational, including issues relating to:
• Interaction between and across government departments
• Political engagement and the mandate to deliver automated, technology-supported
services
• Co-ordination and ownership issues between agencies and departments
• Project management of eGovernment initiatives
• Management of risk and knowledge so as to optimise and learn from eGovernment
experiences
• Metrics for measuring and evaluating organisational performance and capabilities
