E-Government was created to share information reliably, rapidly, and securely through three primary presidential initiatives: Government to Government, Government to Business, and Government to Citizen, in line with the President’s goal of utilizing technology. Government to Government allows for collaboration between all levels and facets of government, which leads to both state and local governments providing effective citizen services. The Government to Business presidential initiative’s goal is to help business interact efficiently and effectively with the Federal Government. The Government to Business E-Government services were set-up in the form of one-stop portals to provide comprehensive Government-wide information related to business-oriented topics. The Government to Citizen E-Government benefit is more than just posting forms online, but rather provides one-stop, online information and services delivered directly to U.S. citizens.
Overall, DHS participates in 22 separate initiatives associated with the E-Government mission and objectives. DHS collaborates with outside government agencies (such as EPA, GSA, SBA, OPM, DOL, among others) to expand the scope and reach of E-Government and increase its visibility among all federal agencies.
