The public sector, by both its size and scope of
activities, represents the biggest single information content resource
for the creation of value-added information content and services.
According to the
eGOV consortium, this resource could be fully exploited by
realising and extending the scope of "online one-stop
government".
Traditionally, "online one-stop government" refers to an online
integration of public services from a citizen's -or customer of public
services- point of view.
The main objective of the project was the
provision of an open, extensible and scalable platform for realising
online one-stop government. This platform was deployed and evaluated
in three European countries, namely Austria, Greece and Switzerland.
The eGOV project was financially supported by the European Commission
under the IST Programme.
