SCOPE
EGOVIS series of international conferences focus on digitalisation, digital transformation, digital innovation, automation and information systems aspects of e-government. One of the critical drivers of competitiveness is accelerated digital transformation. Digital transformation is more than just a technological shift; it requires a fundamental change of processes enabled by the innovative use of digital technologies. Digitalisation and information systems are core enablers for electronic government/governance in all dimensions: e-administration, e-democracy, e-participation and e-voting. Each year EGOVIS brings together experts from academia, public administrations, and industry to discuss digitalisation issues and information systems from different perspectives and disciplines, i.e. technology, policy and/or governance and public administration. We search for original papers by researchers and practitioners describing novel ideas and innovative solutions in the field.
Automation in e-government refers to the use of technology to streamline and improve government processes and services. This can include using electronic systems to handle tasks such as forms submission, document processing, and data management. Automation can help governments to be more efficient and responsive to the needs of citizens and businesses. It can also reduce the need for manual labor and improve the accuracy and consistency of government processes. Some examples of automation in e-government include online portals for paying taxes, applying for permits or licenses, and accessing government services.
