Abstract
The evaluation on the success of E-Government applications through visual relationship measurement model using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was conducted on 157 public user. Thus, the objective of this paper is to discuss the implementation of e-government in Malaysia, based on the findings of public user assessment conducted on Malaysia’s electronic government applications such as E-services, e-procurement, Generic Office Environment (GOE), Human Resources Management Information System (HRMIS), Project Monitoring System (PMS), Electronic Labor Exchange (ELX), e-tanah, e-pbt (local authority), e-kehakiman and e-syariah. The study adopted a cross-sectional survey research approach and a three-round Delphi for ascertaining the definition of information system project success. Findings of the study showed that there was evidence from public user’s perspective that the e-government applications were generally successful. Data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis via SPSS and confirmatory factor analysis via visual relationship shown through AMOS, to validate the hypothesis model.
