Abstract

Government Of India (GOI) acknowledged the pivotal role that Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has played since the last decade, in bringing government services to the doorstep of the people across different segments and geographical locations. Kerala is one of the federal states of India, implementing e-governance for the effective and efficient administration and service to the state. Implementation of e-Governance projects has defined goals like timeliness and cost optimization. But still it is a dream. In this paper we analyzes the reasons and it points the finger to the current project management scenario under Kerala state. The data collection was done by personal interviews. This paper propose a model, which can be functional in a team for e-Governance project management in order to the effective implementation of e-Governance projects and its completion in time while respecting timeliness and cost optimization.
