The concept is hence both of an analytical and operational nature, and serves domestic as well as external purposes. This report focuses on the UNPAN e-government index, and constitutes the fourth deliverable of the e-mapping activity offered by the World Bank in the context of its cooperation activity with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MOCIT). The text of the report is divided in four main sections: the introduction sets up the context and rationale against which the e-mapping activity has been designed for Saudi Arabia, and how the UNPAN e-government index fits in it; section two provides some background and methodological consideration regarding the importance of e-government efforts in Saudi Arabia, and the value of tracking such efforts through an index such as UNPAN's e-government index; section three offers a direct analysis of Saudi Arabia's past and current rankings in the UNPAN e-government index, including the identification of gaps (e.g. for data) and possible recommendations to improve the country's ranking in the future; and finally, section four contains a summary of findings and recommendations for future action.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS INDICATORSACCESS POINTSACCESS TO INFORMATIONACCESS TO INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIESACRONYMSACTION PLANADULT LITERACYANNUAL REPORTSARCHIVEAVERAGE CITIZENB2BBENCHMARKBENCHMARKSBEST PRACTICEBETTER SERVICE DELIVERYBIBLIOGRAPHYBROADBANDBROADBAND PENETRATIONBUSINESS ENTRYBUSINESS ENTRY POINTBUSINESS SECTORBUSINESS VALUEBUSINESS-TO-BUSINESSBUSINESSESCAPABILITIESCAPABILITYCAPACITY BUILDINGCERTIFICATESCHAMBERS OF COMMERCECHANGE MANAGEMENTCIOCITIZEN EMPOWERMENTCITIZEN SERVICESCLASSIFICATIONCOMMERCECOMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGYCOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGIESCOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGYCOMPETITIVENESSCONNECTIVITYCONTENTSDEBIT CARDDECISION MAKINGDESCRIPTIONDEVELOPMENT PROGRAMDIGITAL BUSINESSDIGITAL DIVIDEDIGITAL OPPORTUNITYDIGITAL SUBSCRIBERDISCUSSION FORUMDOCUMENTSDOMAINDOMAIN NAMESDOMAINSDSLE-BUSINESSE-BUSINESS ENVIRONMENTE-GOVE-GOVERNMENTE-GOVERNMENT DATAE-GOVERNMENT INDEXE-GOVERNMENT INITIATIVEE-GOVERNMENT INITIATIVESE-GOVERNMENT PERFORMANCEE-GOVERNMENT POLICYE-GOVERNMENT PRACTITIONERSE-GOVERNMENT PROGRESSE-GOVERNMENT READINESSE-GOVERNMENT SERVICEE-GOVERNMENT SERVICE DELIVERYE-GOVERNMENT SERVICESE-GOVERNMENT SITESE-GOVERNMENT STRATEGIESE-LEARNINGE-MAILE-PROCUREMENTE-READINESSE-READINESS RANKINGE-READINESS RANKINGSE-SERVICESE-STRATEGIESE-STRATEGYEFFECTIVE PARTICIPATIONEFFICIENT COMMUNICATIONEGOVERNMENTEGOVERNMENT PORTALELECTRONIC DATAELECTRONIC DELIVERYELECTRONIC FORMENTRY POINTSEQUIPMENTFOREIGN INVESTMENTG2BG2CGLOBAL E-GOVERNMENTGOVERNMENT ACCESSGOVERNMENT AGENCIESGOVERNMENT INFORMATIONGOVERNMENT OFFICIALSGOVERNMENT PORTALGOVERNMENT SITEGOVERNMENT SITESGOVERNMENT-TO-BUSINESSGOVERNMENT-TO-CITIZENSHEADINGHUMAN CAPACITYHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN DEVELOPMENTICTIDID CARDSIMPLEMENTATION OF E-GOVERNMENTIMPLEMENTING AGENCIESINDEXESINDICESINFORMATION ARCHITECTUREINFORMATION ECONOMYINFORMATION PROVISIONINFORMATION SERVICESINFORMATION SOCIETIESINFORMATION SOCIETYINFORMATION TECHNOLOGIESINFORMATION TECHNOLOGYINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTINNOVATIONINSPECTIONINSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORKINTELLECTUAL PROPERTYINTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSINTERACTIVE FEATURESINTERACTIVE MEDIAINTERNATIONAL TELECOMMUNICATIONINTERNATIONAL TELECOMMUNICATIONSINTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERIPISPKNOWLEDGE ECONOMYKNOWLEDGE SOCIETYLICENSELICENSESLITERACY RATELITERACY RATESLOCAL AREA NETWORKMATERIALMOBILE PHONESMOBILE USERMOBILE USERSNATIONAL GOVERNMENTNATIONAL GOVERNMENTSNATIONAL POLICIESNATIVE SPEAKERSNEW TECHNOLOGIESNEWSLETTERSONLINE FORMSONLINE NETWORKONLINE OPERATIONSONLINE PRESENCEONLINE SERVICESONLINE TRANSACTIONSOPEN SOURCE SOFTWAREOUTSOURCINGOVERALL E-GOVERNMENTPARTICIPATORY DEMOCRACYPCPCSPENETRATION RATESPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPERSONAL COMPUTERPERSONAL COMPUTERSPOSTAL SERVICESPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPSPRIVATE SECTORPRODUCTIVITYPROGRESS IN E-GOVERNMENTPROTOCOLPUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONPUBLIC INFORMATIONPUBLIC KEYPUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTUREPUBLIC POLICYPUBLIC SECTORPUBLIC SERVICESRADIOREADINGREGULATORY ENVIRONMENTRESULTRESULTSSEARCHSEARCH ENGINESSECURE TRANSACTIONSSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE PROVISIONSERVICES TO CITIZENSSITE CONTENTSUBSCRIBER LINESUCCESS OF E-GOVERNMENTSUCCESSFUL E-GOVERNMENTTECHNOLOGY INITIATIVESTELECOMTELECOMMUNICATIONTELECOMMUNICATIONSTELECOMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURETELEMATICSTELEPHONETELEPHONE LINETELEPHONE LINESTIME FRAMETRANSPARENCYURLUSERUSER-FRIENDLINESSUSERSUSESVIDEOWEBWEB PAGEWEB PRESENCEWEBSITEWEBSITESWIFIWIRELESS ACCESS10.1596/19048
