The study on
user satisfaction and user impact aims at building a measurement framework for
inclusive public e-services to be piloted in 10 Member States. At the end of
the project an easy to use and context adaptable toolkit will be made
available: the new standard for eGovernment user measurement. Public agencies
at all levels and in all Member States will be able to use it to monitor
progress in user satisfaction with their eGovernment Services.

eGovernment TrendsWatch
TrendsWatch
aims to provide a central information point on the wide range of eGovernment
research activities being carried out across Europe, including those not funded
by the EU. Sharing information more widely will improve the promotion of
research results and speed up their implementation.
The
TrendsWatch site is closely linked to the study on Bringing together and
accelerating eGovernment research in EU, which combines the research, good
practice and policy viewpoints. The study team is working to identify gaps in
current plans for implementing eGovernment and propose solutions. The
TrendsWatch website can serve as a focal point for information on eGovernment
research projects and activities. As the study progresses, we aim to provide
regular updates along with new related information.

Bringing Together and accelerating
eGovernment research in the EU-FP6 eGovernment research projects report. (PDF: 4,23 MB)
The general aim is to present and analyse those FP6 research projects in
eGovernment which have reached a certain level of maturity. The document concludes
with selected success stories and the identification of technological and
socioeconomic trends.

The report is basically the preparation for a more detailed study but is testing the instruments (i.e.surveys) to be employed in the bigger exercise. Perhaps, unsurprisingly, the main outcome is that home users lag behind business users, along with the fact that measuring ’satisfaction’ is not straightforward, perhaps one of the reasons I’ve started looking towards collecting dissatisfaction.
