1. Next Generation e-Government: The Cloud and Beyond Oleg Petrov, Program Coordinator, e-Development Thematic Group, Global ICT Department, The World Bank E-Government Summit Hong Kong, 8 October 2010
2. Outline The E-Gov Story: from Computerization to e-Transformation Key Aspects of e-Gov 2.0 Latest Technology Trends Shaping the Future Focus on G-Cloud World Bank’s Support for e-Government
3. E-Government Vision: Leveraging ICT to Transform Service Delivery Some good news: India: E-services reduced bribe-payments Source: Survey of e-government projects in India, IC4D 2009 Ghana: Customs clearances went from 2 -3 weeks to 1-2 days with a 50% increase in revenue after applying IT systems. Korea: Investment of $80 million in e-procurement generated $2.7 billion in annual savings 3
4. But: ICT investments are also risky Partial Failures 50% Successes 15% Total Failures 35% e-Government initiatives in Developing Countries Guardian headline: “£2bn cost of government’s IT blunders” The Economist : “Although hopes have been high and the investment has been huge, so far the results have mostly been disappointing…” Gartner Research :“On an average, $8 out of every $10 spent in IT is “dead money” – not contributing directly to business change and growth”. Risks are high, though a lot learnt since the early days Key lesson: Smarter IT spending needed Source: Richard Heeks. 2003. “Most e-Government-for-Development Projects Fail: How Can Risks be Reduced?”. IDPM i-Government Working Paper no. 14
5. Old Model: e-Government 1.0 High Costs – Limited Results E-Gov 1.0 = Informatization: Computerizing the “Brick and Mortar” (industrial age) government Technology/supply/vendor-driven Ignoring or reinforcing organizational silos Limited back-end integration and sharing of data, infrastructure and services Limited process re-engineering that does not leverage the full power of ICT Limited change management Limited participation of the citizens and private sector

7. Funded by the World Bank, implemented by the Government -- US$30 million
10. A new IFMIS system is now being implemented at a cost of US$54 million.6 Recent Example from Africa: Silos Don’t Work
11. We can implement post-facto interoperability, but we get a “Spaghetti of interdependencies” among Government applications. Difficult to maintain. 7
12. Move to a situation in which technology allows you to share services and infrastructure
15. New Model: e-Government 2.0Maximizing Transformational Impact of ICT E-Gov 2.0 = eTransformation– next-generation model of ICT-enabled govt transformation into open, participatory, citizen-driven and highly integrated government: Breaking down organizational silos, creating horizontal, whole-of-govt structures, standards, communities and practice groups Comprehensive back-end integration and sharing corporate services and systems Comprehensive process re-engineering that leverages fully the power of ICT (rethinking government in the information age) Comprehensive change management (“the human factor”) Active participation (co-creation) of the citizens in policy and decision-making and service design and delivery (Open Government paradigm) Government letting go and empowering innovation and public-private partnerships (Government as a Platform paradigm)

30. What is cloud computing?Different definitions in scope and content
31. Cloud computing delivery models Software as a Service (SaaS) The capability provided to the consumer is the use of the provider’s applications running on a cloud infrastructure and accessible from various client devices through a thin-client interface such as a web browser Platform as a Service (PaaS) The capability provided to the consumer is deployment onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created applications using programming languages and tools supported by the provider Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) The capability provided to the consumer is the provision of processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications
32. NIST: Cloud Computing Deployment Models Private cloud The cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization Community cloud The cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns Hybrid cloud The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability Public cloud The cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group + ……. + …

37. Country Examples:USA In September 2009, the Federal Government’s Cloud Computing Initiative was announced, GSA serving as a provisioning hub for Government Cloud Apps.gov was established as a “cloud computing storefront” About a half of US governmental agencies use some cloud computing technologies By 2014, over $1 billion of the federal IT budget would be devoted to cloud computing By moving to a cloud service, GSA now pays an annual total of $650,000 for USA.gov and all associated costs, a costs savings of $1.7 million, or 72 percent Defense Information System Agency estimates about $15 million in cost savings The migration to the Cloud could save Washington D.C. City Government 48% on e-mail expenditures and the City of Los Angeles 23.6 %

39. All G-Cloud services will be delivered to the future ‘Common Desktop’ which will include both desk based and mobile devices
40. The G-Cloud will be a combination of the private cloud and trusted elements of public clouds- The G-Cloud Program is expected to deliver the following savings: £300 million per annum (by 2015) by consolidating data centres in use across the Public Sector against estimated current spend in the order of £5bn; and £500 million per annum (by 2020) against an estimated current spend in the order of £5bn, through faster and more effective procurement of infrastructure and services through the Applications Store for Government (ASG).
44. The KC will enable various ministries to collaborate, integrate and consolidate hardware and create platforms for shared functions
45. Existing back office systems, such as payroll, accounting, and personnel management, will be virtualized and hosted in the private cloud. Some front office systems, such as electronic procurement, will be virtualized to a public cloud - The KC will use green technology to help cut costs. The data centers will be built in cold regions, will use wind and solar power, will run on DC power, and may be placed underground where temperatures are stable

47. South Korea is moving 17 critical applications to the Government Cloud
48. The Government’s aim is to stimulate the development of the Korean cloud computing market
49. A further benefit is that government agencies can use the onshore cloud capabilities to reduce in-house ICT costs – overcoming the reluctance of agencies to use offshore clouds
