Prioritising areas for the development and delivery of government e-content and e-services: an appraisal of the Alberta SuperNet
by Adam Finn, Dominic Thomas
Electronic Government, an International Journal (EG), Vol. 5, No. 2, 2008

Abstract: Governments are beginning to commit substantial sums of money to systems for the delivery of electronic public services. These promise citizens improved access to public services and round the clock one-source access to government for all, regardless of their location and levels of mobility. However, identifying priorities and determining how much public money should be committed to particular types of public Electronic Services (e-services) remain problematic. Choice Experiments (CEs) have begun to be used to estimate the value of non-market goods, including quantifying the use and non-use values provided by components of a complex public service. Here we use a CE to determine priorities by forecasting the relative market value of the types of government e-services proposed to be delivered to Alberta households via the Alberta SuperNet.
