Abstract

This paper presents a research project working towards building a sustainable pilot E-Government system for the ancient city of Fez in the developing country of Morocco. Specifically, this article goes through the range of understandings related to concepts of governance, good governance, and e-government to identify ways to put in practice these notions and facilitate systematic assessment of outcomes and results of the project implementation. The article presents a methodology (Outcome Analysis) and identifies indicators for enabling a project Outcome Analysis as a measurement of the project's contribution to the improvement of good governance. Such a systematic assessment aims to contribute to the generation of knowledge and dissemination of lessons learned concerning the implications of e-Government implementation for good governance.
