TL;DR: In this article, an effective framework for implementing electronic governance (e-governance) and e-services in developing countries like Bangladesh has been proposed, where the potential to ensure highest level of services in all the sectors of government with the implementation of egovernance is also presented.
Abstract: In this paper, we propose an effective framework for implementing electronic governance (e-governance) and e-services in developing countries like Bangladesh. We also present a comparative analysis of present government architecture and the prospects and challenges of implementing e-governance in Bangladesh emphasizing on the usage and potential of facilitating e-services in various sectors of governance. Specific concerns of implementing electronic governance in a developing country like Bangladesh where there exists extreme shortage of resources, limitations in financing, absence of proper development planning, lack of skilled human resources, unavailability of stable and fair democracy and more importantly, a number of unavoidable circumstances including natural disasters. We especially present the adaptability of e-governance in the prime sectors of government and provide a methodical study on the strategies of involving mass people in the governance process improving information and service delivery with their participation in overall decision-making. The potential to ensure highest level of services in all the sectors of government with the implementation of e-governance is also presented in this paper. Moreover, we provide specific recommendations for implementing e-governance in the most feasible, cost-effective, and efficient manner. Analyzing the conducted survey result through statistical procedures also derives a couple of significant factors in implementing e-governance. This paper also aims to point the possible solutions in handling the barriers to implement electronic governance. The supporting framework for integrating the overall socio-economic activities under the information and communication technology framework is also conveyed in this paper.

TL;DR: There is a challenge to create a new system of monitoring for the use of ICT for public administration in the context of proper Digital Government maturity models in Russia.
Abstract: Governments around the world are facing a double challenge Their citizens are expecting everhigher standards of service and want to be able to interact with the government online as easily as they do with banks and Internet commerce companies At the same time, governments need to reduce administrative costs and increase program effectiveness For many years, “e-Government” has been a major contributor to meeting these challenges In recent years Russia has made good progress on its existing e-Government strategy for providing digital services in parallel with other channels To assist the Government of the Russian Federation with its plans to develop and launch a project that will be designed to address these issues and move the country towards a Digital Government, this report from the World Bank team sets out high level recommendations that are tailored to the needs of Russia, and that are in line with the best international practices The analysis shows that the situation with the monitoring of e-Government development in the Russian Federation as a whole is not bad There are large amounts of data on various aspects of using ICT for public administration and local self-government Most of measurable indicators used in Russia, as in many other countries, relate to assessments of the level of e-Readiness of the country, and of particular regions or industries To conclude, for Russia, as well as for other countries, there is a challenge to create a new system of monitoring for the use of ICT for public administration in the context of proper Digital Government maturity models
