Abstract
Strategic planning of initiatives in eGovernment may effectively be performed only when adequate knowledge is available on all the facets introduced in previous chapters. Such knowledge is usually fragmented and dispersed among PA offices and sometimes among PA officers, who seldom document the information related to laws, organization, and other issues. Thus, frequently at the beginning of an eGovernment project a recognition is needed whose goal is to reconstruct the state of the social and information system considered in the project. This is the state reconstruction activity considered in this chapter.
This chapter is authored by Carlo Batini and Gianluigi Viscusi.
