Abstract
This report reviews the status,
opportunities and constraints of the Royal Government of
Bhutan's e-Governance program, and recommends actions
to enhance and accelerate it. The report is structured as
follows: Part II is a strategic view and executive summary
of the present situation, opportunities, constraints and
suggested strategy for acceleration of e-Governance in
Bhutan. Parts III through VII look at the various
dimensions of the strategy, namely human resources (Part
III), institutional framework (Part IV), e-governance
architecture (Part V), interoperability framework (Part VI)
and implementation roadmap (Part VII). The Appendices expand
upon various aspects of the report and provide complementary
information. Appendix (VIII) subsection F, describes an
alternative strategy suggested by an external peer reviewer
of the final report, which can enable the rapid rollout of
e-Government in the Bhutanese context using a commercial
Enterprise Resource Planning system purpose built for the
public sector, albeit with certain limitations and costs
which need to be evaluated in further detail.
