Proposing a Multidimensional Framework to Assess Mobile Government Readiness

Authors Info & Claims
Published:01 March 2016Publication History

ABSTRACT

Based on a review of recent literature and a set of group and individual interviews, this poster proposes a preliminary multidimensional framework to assess an agency's readiness for mobile government. The poster also shows how these dimensions have been integrated into a tool called Mobile-Readiness Assessment, which public managers can use to better understand mobile technologies and help them ask the right questions before starting any mobile government project.
