A SCIENTIFIC-METHODICAL APPROACH TO THE EVALUATION OF ELECTRONIC GOVERNMENT IN THE REGIONS OF UKRAINE

Summary/Abstract: This article substantiates the notion that the development of e-governance is an important direction of increasing government efficiency in the conditions of building an information society. The modern development of globalization trends determines the need for systems for monitoring and analyzing the development of e-governance in regions. The purpose of the article is to assess the level of development of e-governance of the regions of Ukraine in order to determine digital opportunities and prospects for the introduction of the latest information technologies. The information base for the evaluation of e-governance of the regions of Ukraine is: the data of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine and the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine; the data of regional and district state administrations; and reference and information publications of the Ukrainian Institute of the Future and the Innovation Development Center regarding the state of development of e-governance. On the basis of the taxonometric approach, a comparative assessment of e-governance of the regions of Ukraine was carried out according to certain indicators: the share of internet subscribers by region in the total number of subscribers in Ukraine; the level of development of local electronic democracy; the share of state authorities that use e-democracy tools in the region in the total number of state administration bodies; the number of registered e-applications; the share of “Participation budget (public budget)” projects submitted by the public of the region in the total number of submitted projects; the level of publicity of local self-government; the share of electronic services provided in the TsNAP of the region per day in the total number of services provided; and the share of published reports in the region based on the results of the implementation of the open data policy in the total number of published reports. According to the results of the assessment of the level of development of e-government in the regions using the taxonometric method, the leading regions (the Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Lviv, Odesa, and Ivano-Frankivsk regions) and the regions with the lowest level of development of e-government (the Luhansk and Cherkasy regions) were determined. The main prospects for the implementation of the latest information technologies in the regions were also determined: the creation of digital platforms; the introduction of innovative technologies into the management system based on the smart city concept; the development of IT infrastructure; the increase of institutional capacity; and the implementation of digital development projects and open data.
