UNIT-1 E-Governance UNIT-1 E-Governance Definition: E-governance, expands to electronic governance, is the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in all the processes, with the aim of enhancing government ability to address the needs of the general public. The basic purpose of e-governance is to simplify processes for all, i.e. government, citizens, businesses, etc. at National, State and local levels. In short, it is the use of electronic means, to promote good governance. It connotes the implementation of information technology in the government processes and functions so as to cause simple, moral, accountable and transparent governance. It entails the access and delivery of government services, dissemination of information, communication in a quick and efficient manner. Benefits of E-governance:- Reduced corruption High transparency Increased convenience Growth in GDP Direct participation of constituents Reduction in overall cost. Expanded reach of government Through e-governance, the government plans to raise the coverage and quality of information and services provided to the general public, by the use of ICT in an easy, economical and effective manner. The process is extremely complicated which requires, the proper arrangement of hardware, software, networking and indeed re- engineering of all the processes to facilitate better delivery of services. Types of Interactions in E-Governance:- G2G (Government to Government): When the exchange of information and services is within the periphery of the government, is termed as G2G interaction. This can be both horizontal, i.e. among various government entities and vertical, i.e. between national, state and local government entities and within different levels of the entity. G2C (Government to Citizen): The interaction amidst the government and general public is G2C interaction. Here an interface is set up between government and citizens, which enables citizens to get access to wide variety of public services. The citizens has the freedom to share their views and grievances on government policies anytime, anywhere. G2B (Government to Business): In this case, the e-governance helps the business class to interact with the government seamlessly. It aims at eliminating red-tapism, saving time, cost and establish transparency in the business environment, while interacting with government. G2E (Government to Employees): The government of any country is the biggest employer and so it also deals with employees on a regular basis, as other employers do. ICT helps in making the interaction between government and employees fast and efficient, along with raising their level of satisfaction by providing perquisites and add-on benefit. E-Democracy-E-democracy represents the use of information technologies by government agencies as a way to promote democracy and transform relationships with constituents, businesses, nonprofit partners, and other government agencies. Employment of these technologies aids in empowering and engaging citizens through increased access to information and enabling more efficient government management. E-democracy differs from e-government because e-democracy focuses on applying information technology to increase involvement and interaction between the public and officials while holding officials accountable. E-government, on the other hand, focuses on improving the way the government operates through the use of open data and IT techniques.

Walker, and Lily Varon EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the past, online transactions for digital product purchases differed little from physical product purchases, with the exception of the delivery method. However, today’s digitally connected consumer is eschewing the traditional ownership model of buy, download, install, and use. Consumers want access to digital content and services across their connected devices, anytime, anywhere — and are increasingly embracing virtual ownership models that provide access to vast libraries of content, services, and products under subscription, usage, and other ownership models. eBusiness leaders charged with monetizing their firms’ catalog of digital content, software, or online services must find digital commerce solutions that allow flexibility to trial alternative business models while supporting fulfillment across multiple consumer touchpoints.
