30-day Public Review for Transformational Government Framework Primer Version 1.0

The OASIS Transformational Government Framework TC [1] members have  
recently approved a Committee Specification Draft (CSD) and submitted this  
specification for 30-day public review:

Transformational Government Framework Primer Version 1.0

Committee Note Draft 01 / Public Review Draft 01

21 July 2011

Specification Overview:

The Transformational Government Framework is a managed process of ICT-enabled  
change in the public sector, which puts the needs of citizens and businesses  
at the heart of that process and which achieves significant and  
transformational impacts on the efficiency and effectiveness of government.  
The TGF Primer is intended to serve as an introduction to and detailed  
overview of the Framework. It also covers the Framework's rationale, purpose,  
scope, and intended use.

TC Description :

The Transformational Government TC is advancing an overall framework for  
using information technology to improve the delivery of public services.  
Unlike traditional e-Government strategies of the past, Transformational  
Government begins with citizen engagement to assure greater use and return on  
investment. The work of the TC includes defining the framework, identifying  
use cases, and providing adoption guidance for governments around the world,  
regardless of their history in implementing eGov. 

Public Review Period:

The public review starts today, 28 September 2011 and ends Friday, 28  
October 2011.

This is an open invitation to comment. OASIS solicits feedback from  
potential users, developers and others, whether OASIS members or not, for the  
sake of improving the interoperability and quality of its technical work.
