Successful projects in digital government
This research explored the factors and conditions of successful digital government projects. The work was an update of the 2012 study we undertook into benefits realisation, conducted for the Office of the Auditor-General.
Since then, we observed a rapidly changing environment, both technologically, institutionally, and socially, and a continuing history of digital government projects that have failed. We explored six to eight case studies of successful digital government and aim to learn from their success.
